450 Million Dollards in 9 Months
Power Slap already conquered the NFL.
Now, the controversial cheek-checking league is taking over the music industry. Its first victim? Grammy award-winning artist Taylor Swift, who was forced to watch in horror as UFC CEO Dana White, creator of the Power Slap league (but not the sport), racked up more than 136 million views on social media.
White recently shared the viral clip to his Instagram stories.
No doubt the sour “Swifties” are mounting a social media counteroffensive.
“We dominate,” White told reporters when touting the viral video during last weekend’s UFC Austin press conference. “Power Slap dominates social media in sports. The thing that was closest to us up until last week was the NFL and it wasn’t even football, it was Rihanna at the halftime show. By the time the end of the year happens, we might triple that number. It’s insane.”
It’s definitely “insane” (according to disgusted UFC fans).
Power Slap, which lasted just one season on TBS, continues to air on the Rumble app from its new home base of “Fight Island” in Abu Dhabi, much to the chagrin of … well, just about everyone. As a result, White and Co. have declared “war” on the combat sports media.
Sometimes he sounds like a short stocky used car salesman.
Dana wins again!!
lmao. im sure by Dana’s logic that means power slap can sell out football stadiums multiple times a week
I dont ig anyway to see the vid in question?
What a strategy. Call out Taylor Swift saying you get more views, provide link, the billion Swift fans click on it to see what they’re missing, boom you have a billion views.
We really are getting dumber. Smdh.
Came here to learn what “Swiftie” meant.
I am disappoint.
How much in advertising did they pay to get to 135m views on that?
If the sport was that big, he wouldn’t need to keep reminding people how big it is.
People do like freak shows though. I don’t know about 100m views but a lot of people will watch 2 morons slap each other silly.
