He’s a classic American entrepreneur who saw something plenty of other people also saw, but had the drive and vision to keep pushing for years until he had wrecked his competition and taken over the whole market. He also went to the next level where he also changed the culture and redefined how the average person, especially the average guy under 40, thinks about combat sports and really combat, violence and toughness more fundamentally. All that said, he seems like a douche and he would have never been anything if his rich buddy hadn’t given him blank checks for like 15 years. He takes credit for tons of stuff that never would’ve happened without the Fertittas and that were likely the product of their involvement in the business.

i dont think the ferritas being the money guys takes away from white's skills, vision, and general business acumen

for example on lex fridman's podcast he talks about how the announcer for tyson's comeback fight just totally shat all over tyson talking about the court case and prison etc, right as tyson is walking out to go into literal human combat

it pissed him off something awful and although we all heard the same thing he had the vision that if he were ever involved in combat sports he would forbid the announcers from shitting on the fighters no matter what. and this was 6 years before they even bought UFC

Ferittas aren’t just money guys. All the early deals where UFC gets onto third tier cable and then slowly increases its visibility and profile for both the actual events and all the reality show content would have never happened without them, their family and the connections they had in their network to get those deals. White gets to pretend he’s the CEO because they don’t want to be in the spotlight, but in reality he’s more like a Chief Product Officer or Chief Creative Officer. Though he deserves additional credit for having most of the big picture vision worked out himself and selling it to the Ferittas.

the ufc always has numerous exciting and skilled guys whereas in boxing it seems there's never more than 2-3 guys at a time that people are excited to watch

The lighter weight classes in boxing have plenty of action and skill. Far better than watching greasy barefoot mongs rolling around like savages in a cage. There’s a lot more to boxing than the heavyweights (which I agree are mostly boring to watch).

If you aren’t entertained by Sean O’Malley you’re presumably poasting while in a coma.

TBF Coralles Castillo was infinity better than UFC 300 and that’s to say nothing of Ward Gatti 1 or even fucking Fury Wilder 1 for that matter.
