"Every time I get on the phone with these guys, I go, ‘Am I out of my f*cking mind?' It’s just… But I think obviously now is the time, or I would’ve done it (in 2017). I was kicking around. I was even talking about Anthony Joshua at one time and stuff like that. I’m glad I pumped the brakes and we waited. Everything is about timing. Is now the time? We’re going to find out.

“I have a plan. I’m going to implement that plan and we’ll see how that works. … People have been talking about the demise of boxing for 30 years and we’re still here talking about boxing right now. I have always had an idea of how I thought it should be done. I don’t know if that’s possible, but we’re going to find out. I’m coming in guns blazing.”

Dana said that he hopes UFC fighters won't be taking boxing fights.

Asked about the pay structure, White said it'll work similar to UFC.

“Well, it’s not like that hasn’t been done before (in boxing),” White said. “There have been dominant promoters before that have had most of the talent locked up. But listen, I think if you asked anybody and even if you asked yourselves, the UFC model works. It works.'”

Dana said people can "assume" the promoters he won't be working with.

It is unknown when Dana plans to launch his boxing promotion.
