UFC President and generational entrepreneur Dana White sits down with Rich Kleiman in the latest episode of Boardroom Talks for a candid conversation about building one of the most dominant sports empires in history and what's coming next. White breaks down how UFC went from being banned on pay-per-view to selling out 85,000 seats on the South Lawn of the White House, why he believes boxing is fundamentally broken and how he plans to fix it, and the inside story of Power Slap, the sport that outpaced UFC in sponsorship revenue in its first two years.
