VLADTV posted video of Floyd Mayweather verbally slamming UFC President, Dana White. Mayweather and White have been going back and forth over negotiating the McGregor fight. Floyd put to rest any thoughts that the fight would be negotiated through White, saying:
I can remember Dana White used to hang around with me and Jeff Mayweather, and carry my bags. Dana White, you know I remember you used to carry my bags.
Floyd Mayweather has been extremely smart managing his business career and gaining leverage. Because of the leverage Floyd has, his ability to command massive purses, and owning his own promotion company, he does not see White as an equal. In Floyd’s mind he is a boss, so he only sits across the table from other bosses in negotiations. Unfortunately for White, he’s not a boss. Floyd also says:
I don’t wanna talk to Dana White. Remember, Dana White [sic] he was a player, he was a boss, but he was a small boss. You know, the big bosses were the Fertittas. But then Fertittas choose to sell the UFC, so Dana is just an employee.
White has been a successful businessman. But, he’s not on Floyd’s level and will probably not have the level of influence he would like on the Mayweather/McGregor fight.
