If Zuffa really wanted Benavidez to fight Opetaia they’d pay for it.
After insulting the entire industry, and making statements in the senate like “Talent follows money” the only way to satisfy the fans and make the fights promised is to live by what you say. But that’s not what we’re seeing.
We’re seeing a minor league, that isn’t catching on in the US, and complaining that the people you’ve insulted don’t want to work with you because of poor public business behavior that feels good coming out of the mouth, but damages the brand.
You can’t brag about your funding, or insult the business acumen of an over 100 year old industry and expect competitors to roll over because your feelings are hurt.
Respect is a two way street. Don’t be surprised when you lose it, and don’t cry when the bluster is revealed as not being the position of power.
Do what you said and stand by your initial pitch to the public, that talent follows money and that you have the funding to make the best fights happen immediately.
But that’s not why they’re here, because it sets a precedent that will keep the high end well paid. The antithesis of the business model.
For Zuffa and TKO it’s not about the fights, but this is their chance to prove it is.
Or, they can wait and do what every promoter has for 100 years. Build the fight until it’s profitable enough to pay the fighters what they deserve for years of mutual in ring combat.
But that would be the reality they fear most.
That fighters don’t want ceilings on their earning potential for the risk they take.
The major leagues of boxing go live on TNT and there over 100 million global subscribers next month.
There will be unification and undisputed fights to determine the best in the world. Not in the company, but in the world.
That will become the home of the big fight.
Not avoiding anyone. Chantelle and I both want the fight. However…I’m the WBC champion in this division. This is my call. You can’t make me vacate my belt. If Chantelle wants to go 3 min rounds then she’s just gonna have to beat me and take it. If she can do that then she do as she pleases.
I see a lot of emotional grown men mad at the WBC ordering Mikaelian to fight Benavidez cause they hate Benavidez so much.
Opetaia is being frozen out but Opetaia was stripped 2x by the IBF. In both instances Opetaia arguably chose the money. You have to live with ur own CHOICES

The WBC is mentioned several times in this post. I attended phone calls being in Mexico - so I personally couldn’t find out any specific .
I will get to the bottom of this matter but just to be clear
- Safety will always be a top priority
- We do not favor foul language used
- Boxers are the most important part of our sport .
I will personally make a report once all facts are known and confirmed @WBCBoxing
Weights from Long Beach, California:
Both Terry Washington and Axel Aragon Vega weighed in at the junior flyweight limit of 108 pounds.
Fight will headline a @DMGBoxing card that will take place at Thunder Studios and will stream live Friday night on DAZN .. #boxing@Nancy505
This is more damaging than ANY political opinion Dana White has or any politicized mma on the White House lawn. This is a pathology that kills and pushing a stigma/silence that causes people to see killing themselves as a legit option. Maybe Dana White should NEVER talk about his opinions of mental health struggles. He may save a few lives that way. "Man up" isn't wonderful therapy for a sick person; and mental illness is real illness, no matter what the fuck Dana thinks. #MentalHealthAwareness
