UFC CEO Dana White and Showtime Sports president Stephen Espinoza are at it again. Their feud, which has been public jabs back and forth, all began when news broke that Showtime would be getting rid of its boxing programming starting in 2024. “It should be noted that the remaining schedule for the 2023 calendar year will remain unaffected,” a boxing insider reported on Sept. 26. “However beyond 2024, there are no plans to renew current deals & that outside of sporadic PPVs… ShoBox will no longer be a feature and if Showtime dabbles in boxing again, it’ll be one-off PPV events only. Dana White blasted Showtime Sports: ‘F*** Espinoza, and it’s about time that s***** product is off the air’ Later that night White was asked about the news while speaking to the media at the DWCS Week 8 post-fight press conference. “That’s incredibly unfortunate. Production of that show is fantastic, the guy who runs Showtime Boxing is a great human being. It’s unfortunate to hear this,” White said sarcastically
