Whether UFC President Dana White wants to admit it or not, he and WWE Chairman Vince McMahon compete for a lot of the same audience with their UFC and WWE products. And there is actually quite a bit that White could learn from McMahon.
Now MMA fans, don’t get too irritated before you even begin to read. I’m not trying to say that they are the same thing. Of course they aren’t. The UFC is legitimate competition between two highly trained athletes, while the WWE is simulated competition between two, also highly trained athletes.
But the similarity is that while one comes right out and says it and the other doesn’t, they are both forms of entertainment, generally for a male audience between the ages of 18-35.
For the past few decades, one company has been the king of this demographic. Sure, there may be other sports which have a wider fanbase, but no company has caught the attention of and latched onto this important demographic quite like the WWE has.
Though we recently found out that, according to McMahon, the WWE and UFC are not working together to purchase a television network; there is still a lot that the UFC President could learn from his WWE counterpart.
I would like to see for charity Vence and Dana go at it in the ring or octogon The question is which rules will they go under UFC or WWE? I would thing since the UFC is a real compitition it should go with UFC rules and you should give Vince time to train UFC way.for more info on this artical go to the bleacher report by clicking the title above...
