Tyson urges White to take hard-line on boxing promoters

Mike Tyson says Dana White will need to use an aggressive strategy to confront entrenched boxing promoters if he wants to fix what Tyson calls a broken sport.

The comments came ahead of Zuffa Boxing's planned launch this Friday at the Meta Apex in Las Vegas, according to reports.

Tyson, a former heavyweight champion, suggested White must neutralize rival operators rather than rely only on his UFC reputation, sources say.

Zuffa Boxing is expected to showcase fighters from White's roster and is slated to stream on Paramount+, per announcements.

Tyson also noted that boxing retains a committed fan base that could keep the sport alive even amid upheaval, according to the interview.
