#UFC #PowerSlap #DanaWhite
Gained so much faith in the MMA community after seeing how many people hate this. Dana’s ego needed a show to flop, too 🙏
Same
This definitely isn't flopping. This world wide!
@@russcatt5952 literally already has flopped, look at the viewer ratings first episode. Gonna be even less on the next one
Where’s the part when he slaps his wife?
This is "human cockfighting" . Not MMA. Actually, even cocks are probably smarter than this.
It's unbelievable how on one hand Dana has done everything in his power to legitimize MMA/UFC and promote/protect its image, and on the other hand he undermines all that effort and struggle by promoting something like Power Slap...wild. In my opinion Dana should continue to focus on the growth and refinement of MMA/UFC until it reaches the level of the other major sports.
Couldn’t agree more. It’s weird
This isn't a sport! It's FU$KEN DuMB! I agree 100%! He is bringing down the UFC & MMA by association with this stupidity! The irony as well after he slapped his wife. 😯 Maybe it's his time to step away from the UFC!
They need to stop promoting this bs on the UFC channel/socials. If it is its own sport and people actually enjoy it, it’ll do just fine. Force feeding this joke to MMA fans is a quick way to turn everyone off from it
It places significant doubt on his sincerity. The joy he's getting from these knockouts is deeply unpleasant.
MMA will never reach level of other sports. Not enough people enjoy watching violence
If you win the coin toss, why on earth would you receive?! That shit had me dying 🤣
That should be a shining example that some of these guys already have CTE 😂
Lmao bro said I gotta make him pay with the open handed 1 piece
it could be because some guys would be a little fatigued after slapping so therefor they’d be easier to knock out ? I honestly have no clue tho 🤣
This show showcases some of the most empty and hopeless minds in America. Nobody should expect logical thought processes from them.
😂😂😂 god damn
"Scoured the country for more slap fighting talent" LMAO
he didn't say that for real, didnt he
Lol
Decespugliatore Nucleare Man, he says it in the first 20 seconds. Your mind must be rotted
looking for dudes in whifebeaters with women walking 2 steps behind
For ppl stupid enough he ment
This is like a slap in the face for UFC fighters...
Pun intended?
@@uhjeff3651 *Pun intended*
Its a combat sport with a different flavor. Entertainment is entertainment and a buck is a buck. This has nothing to do with MMA.
"I've been slapping people on the streets since 94" got me 🤣🤣🤣
I was laughing at that too All I know is I started boxing around that time as a kid and still think this shit is crazy
Can you imagine the amount of CTE after a " career" in power slap
Not even a career just 1 bout
Wimp
@@teddj514 lol
Yeah but Dana said they’re pioneering a new sport
acutally there is a big misconception about cte.. cte doesnt occur due to one hard punch in the face - cte usually occurs due to multiple hits over a longer period of time. I would argue that getting hit clean 3 times at max in 1 bout is much less dangerous, that receiving 20 blows in a full 5 round mma fight and especially when your head also hits the canvas after a knockout. Look it up, thats the most dangerous part indicator for cte.
People will be watching this video in the future to hear how these guys USED to talk.
This slap fight has been a sport for over a decade. There are promotions in the USA as well. It’s not a brand new thing.
@@oldironsides4107 yeah CTE gets real bad around the 10yr of getting your skull rattled. Are you suggesting repeat heavy blows to the head are fine when we now know through science even heading a football in training too many times causes CTE. I liked the old days mate they were more fun but Science isn't stuck in the 80s and we know this sort of thing messes folks brains up down the line.
@@oldironsides4107 ……..and?
@@oldironsides4107 How is this relevant to the comment? Furthermore just because it's been a thing, doesn't mean it should be, and it definitely doesn't mean it should be anywhere near the UFC/MMA.
Dana taking the UFC back to 2003.
Ong🤣
And the rest. This is late 80s early 90s material back when 500cc dirt bikes and GroupB rallying was on and folk didn't care how much damage would follow suite
@@bigduphusaj162 CR500 🫡👌 cultured
@@kellyrobertj.6548 and groupB rally!! :)
Regardles of what you have been told, this is not a combat sport. This is the equivalent to the circus freak show.
It's been making a name for itself for the past year. KZheadrs be covering this "sport" and it definitely has an audience. Will it flop? Maybe. Definitely not that exciting for me, but it is for a bunch of people.
Give me your definition on what validates something as a "combat sport" or not? Because sports like boxing and MMA have had and always will have haters saying it's not a real sport too, what differentiates them from power slapping?
@@llll7396 at least in mma or boxing both of the competitors allowed to defend themselves and when they can't most of the times the ref or their corner put an end to it, power slap is just taking turn to slap someone and the one getting hit can't defend themselves immidiately (you don't see a slap being blocked here or dodged, just take it to the face)
@@llll7396 I think any sport, requires some form of skill and training to acquire that skill to actually be taken seriously... there is virtually no skill involved in throwing and taking a slap....
@@eddiezS5 Good for you.
Danas face on the thumbail with "HITS LIKE A TRUCK" is comedy gold
That's what she said.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@laertesdd that’s what his wife said you mean. 💁🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️😂💯
RIGHT?! AMAZING
Its giving those twitter reply memes vibe
3:10 “my parents gave me that name” 😂 No shit, Russ? Your parents named you? That’s crazy, I never would’ve guessed..
You realize you can change your name right
@@Bambrough have you had one too many hits to the head to?
@@Bambrough but if it's just your name..... do you have to specify that your parents gave it to you?
@@Bambrough yeah if you're hiding from something. Pea Doughs do that for example.
You do realise some people get named by their grandparents, right? Or some are named by their aunt or uncle. And I know some people named by their parents'best friends. Not the whole name, maybe the first name or the middle name. There are lots of possibilities. Y'all trash talk too early without second guessing.
Why did KZhead remove the thumbs up and thumbs down count 😂, this would have been golden
have to use youtube dislike extension add on
there is browser extensions to bring it back, all these power slap videos have been majority dislike by far
it is currently at 174 Likes to 316 Dislikes
Try refresh, i see 316 down votes & 120 up votes.
@@Ebolachicken to be fair there's no point anymore, videos don't get 1/10th as many dislikes as they use to now that it's hidden, KZhead needs to bring it back instead of simping for shit content creators
Let's think about this logically. Put aside the bad timing with Dana's own slapping incident. Put aside the lack of long-term health insurance for competitors. Put aside that someone has died after getting knocked out 4 times during a slap fight. Even without all of those things, this is still a stupid concept.
Yeah and conditioning without cardio causes all sort of heart probs and issues like tbe worst possible arthritis down the line and brittle bone issues. These guys are basically a hit conditioned statue... thats the worst of the worst will cause more than CTE this level of inactive but brutal stupidity
Yea, it's not like people suffer horrible and lifelong injuries from playing in the NFL, boxing, or any physical sport, right? Right?
jeeeez
@julian marx implying that slapping is anymore dangerous than all the other dumb shit people do is hilariously stupid..
@julian marx well you might call women kicking a ball about Football but as someone who's played football at a semi decent level I call it "women trying to play football" I mean I could get a group of 6 mates and easily beat any womans football full team. It's less than under15s grade football.
“i do electrical wiring on spaceships” that’s very worrying
The question you need to ask yourself is DO YOU WANNA BE A SLAPPER!!! 😂😂😂
Not sure where you're from but in the UK, a slapper is slang for a whore/slut, so that made me laugh 🤣
❤ power slap shirts
Idk if I should be disgusted more at the UFC or the State Commission for allowing this but don't worry I'm grossed out at both on some level
You'll be ok
No you won't be ok . This is making most viewers sick to their guts , millions of good people watching out of disgust or maybe like me the notion that they still can't believe what there witnessing, Fooked up stuff . Dana White lost his mind along with all the others in on getting this sanctioned.$$$$ Get these fools go join the army or something make real men out of themselves , get them off this thug trip that's only going to get worse.. world right now, my gawd.
Try growing a pair bro
Entertaining though
The guy that said he had more slap fighting experience was playing by rules to try and minimize brain damage, hit him with only fingers and didn't step in. The other guy literally clubbed him, straight bollocks.
Yeah no wonder they have so many knock outs, it’s literally because of the clubbing… so stupid and sad
Is Dana going to bed thinking, ‘hmmm what could I possibly do to fuck my reputation up more upon awakening?’ This shit is soo ridiculous. Haha
He's probably real sad about his reputation as he's rolling around in his bed of money
@@EsotericOccultist Great demonstration of the man's priorities👍. He's made a fortune out of exploiting people and this is one of the most egregious examples, obviously he wouldn't care
The dude is absolutely shameless.
@@EsotericOccultist Dana white did not make legitimate money from a moral standpoint. Yea he’s rich, but he’s a horrible person
"Ive been slapping people in the street since 94" lol
Yeah then getting uppercutted clean out
Lol 🤣
Maybe slappin asses 🤙🏻
"He hits like a truck" - Anne White
Watching this actually makes me sad. The brain damage these guys are receiving and not being able to protect themselves
It's good to here people calling that out. Thanku
These people already have brain damage, just look at the way they act and talk.
I know mate we should all hold hands and simultaneously cry for hours on end for Dana to end this 😭
@@microwavegommmm916 don't need to cry. The state is going to step in. This show is just homeless people taking KO punches basically. Dana might lose his promoters license if he doesn't stop
@@stevencoardvenice Still waiting for "muh state" to step in boy?
Honestly the worst part about this is how they acted in episode 2. I checked it out to see what the house looked like and how they'd be "training". It's literally some of the most ridiculous things you could ever do, and I can not believe Dana can't see that.
why is t so hard for ya to understand its a BUSINESS. whether u like it or mot, it's a thing. i been seeing Slap tournaments do 6 figure views for last 2-3 years
@est84inc check the viewers on its premiere before you make brain dead comments, this isn't those leagues. Dana White's Power Slap League will never see over 450k-500k viewers. EVER
@est84inc it's watched as a spectacle, by each person like 1 or 2 times. It isn't a viable sport.
It a bunch of try hards
Dana's the one that set it up that's why its ridiculous. This man has full entire control of this sport. He's the CEO not the President like the UFC
Wow Mitchell sipe went from the ultimate fighter to power slap lol
"Been slapping people on the street since 94" That got me cracking
Honestly I don’t mind it. Give them a separate channel. But I wish ufc would add like Muaythai in jujitsu tournaments like one does. It could be very cool
I can't wait who will become the C.T.E Champion.
I think Phil Baroni is the current champion
Please make a ufc champ compete in your slap compition. They are paper champs. This is the real deal.
Slap "I ve been slapping people in the street since 94" Jesus LOL what a resume
This feels like a parody of TUF but it’s real 😂
I swear this is the dumbest thing in the world
HAAHAHHWHW
Lmaoooo
Holy shit i though it was😂
What are the coaches gonna teach? 🤣 " Ok guys, when you get slapped try not to get knocked out. And when you slap them, try to knock them out"
They will teach the eye of the tiger. How to bounce your chin off the opponent's hand and how to cheat by using the lower half of the hand, ie clubbing, instead of the upper half of the hand.
The way the everyone has a fun description on their lower third but the guy’s at 4:20 just says “Romanian” lmao like it’s a profession
Reads the thumbnail "hits like a truck" with a pic of dana white. I instantly thought dana was talking in 3rd person.
I remember seeing this stuff on rumble and Arnold was hosting and he just looked so embarrassed once it started. Really can't believe this is a thing and people are serious about it. The guy who elected to receive cracked me up though this isn't chess lol.
“slapping people in the streets since 94” he didn’t say that
Why are people hating on this show? This shit is funny af. Nobody is forcing these guys to do this, just enjoy the show
Road to the nearest Waffle House parking lot is more like it…
I could just imagine when they get into altercations at the house, they’ll be slapping each other instead of brawling like in TUF 😂
When can we get ulitmate eye poking champship?
Idk DC would have to come out of retirement tbh 😂
@@FabricateFrog Jones vs DC rematch winner takes both eyes.
Last week in the Brain Damage Slapping Competition...
When Dana watches a human get KO'd he doesn't see CTE he sees $$$
😂
And here you are watching the video to give them more revenue…
This is the decline of Dana White. He had a good run.
lool his decline lloking better then your prime ....
@@DeterminedFC I never hit a woman and made a fool of myself in front of the whole world, I'm good lol
@@rodra72 exactly your a broke nobody.. your failures happen in private nobody cares
@@DeterminedFC I just said I never hit a woman before lol, how is that private? Who said I'm broke lol I own my house
Cry more
“Middle child” 😂 like that’s an accomplishment
2:16 Thank God the ref enthusiasticlly ruled "Down!" because I wouldn't have known otherwise
Dana has said that UFC fighters don't have careers. Instead they have "opportunities" 🤡 I want to know what he thinks about his slap "fighters"
"Biggest opportunity of your life" getting slapped for 2k$.
Dana explaining the rules was the funniest shit i've ever seen
Wish UFC would do arm wrestling next, great underground sport that is ripe for the plucking
This still a thing?
For real 🤦♂️
0:46 cartoon sounds got me rolling on the ground xdddddddd hahaha
I think nobody should get disqualified after the first slap. Both should get one slap on each other at least no matter what.
'And become the first Mexican power slap champion'.. gets knocked tf out bad💀
This is going to be comedy Gold. I'm going to sit back and enjoy. So stupid. Thought I loved all combat
Melting brain cells one slap at a time
Power Slap is to Dana White's UFC, as XFL is the Vince McMahon's WWE.
Dana seems to have a thing for Slapping....
Ha!🤣
This will be Dana's " XFL" moment.
Exactly
Can’t see this lasting that long just from a health perspective and what we know now about ctes etc
There’s been promotions over a decade old worldwide . And other leagues in the USA as well before Dana’s. This isn’t a brand new thing.
@@oldironsides4107 yeah I mean for mainstream. But who knows maybe it sticks
The "wobbled" sound effects after they take damage... bro, even I wouldn't edit that maliciously.
3:20 😂😂😂
Guy steps forward too much so they DQ his slap, but his opponent already got concussed and gets to take home 2 grand, what a great "sport."
Cry harder bro, Dana might be able to hear you soon
After years of watching people get slapped for summer jam tickets, y’all owe Hot97 a check! Forreal.
The only thing that would make this funnier is if Mike Epps came out as Baby Powder and fielded a "Team Pimpin'" 😂
Do they realize they're getting so much negative reviews that nobody cares about this not even MMA fighters MMA commentators journalist they barely got 200,000 views it's not great it's it's his head trauma let's wait for the series Death Or injury to be reported
They’re probably betting people will find something else to complain about. This is pretty brutal though
I can't wait for wiffleball bat to the nuts made into a sport. "Two balls one strike"
🤣
So like half the people commit illegal slaps and then they get rewarded by getting in to the house as they KO'd their opponents. Makes total sense.
"Isaih Quinones - Works on Spaceships" His opponent: "Nicolai Silcoci - Romanian" Lol.
Absolutely ridiculous. And Absolutely incredible at the same time hahaha
It is funny though that you simply have to foul so that the other fighter cant continue and you get the spot.
Whoever is doing these thumbnails are trolling Dana. 😂
'Hits like a truck ". Has to be talking about Mrs Dana White
“Hits like a truck!” Ngannou?! 👊🏿✊🏿
YES
Nah, he hits like a Ford escort
@@coolunusual haha!
i like how they're adding cartoon sound effects to these guys getting brain damage
The thumbnail is unbelievable 😂😂😂
SLAP JESUS folds him like a blanket!! Masvidal must be proud of this dude. Damn
Dana and his wife were pioneers.
I feel like this sport is great way to fast track spawning geniuses after concussions. Some dude gonna be slapped so hard he wake up like Albert Einstein
Mitch Sipe is doing this against regular people that shit is a crime 😂😂
This guy had the longest slap fight career in history! After a long 3 month career he’s going in the hall of fame!
This will set MMA back 10 years.
I can't think of any decade that wouldn't have cringed at this idea and found it utterly barbaric... but in 2023!!! Just a matter of time until the first suicide or death from the CTE these desperate people are climbing over each other for. A major setback for the UFC and the stigma around MMA - which the UFC are the poster child for. This is grim.
Thumbnail says "hits like a truck" and the first thing you see when you click on the video is someone with their hands behind their back getting hit, bruh
They need to fix palm strikes, if not this show won't last more than 2 months
This shit is f#%king hilarious…. Anyone willing to get slapped deserves everything that happens to them including scrambled eggs for brains😂
It looks like these guys hit harder than the guys on Slapfight Championship,
Someone has to be trolling with the video preview picture?! Surely? A picture of Dana and the caption, "Hits like a truck" 😂😂😂
That slap was a palm to the jaw and fingers to the ear .. Smh
Open handed punching this mate.
This is compelling in a morbid kind of way, like watching a car crash. It can never be considered a real sport. 1) The person who slaps first has a huge advantage. 2) The guy who got disqualified was rewarded with entry into the house. The actual 'winner' is now unconscious on the floor. Wtf. 3) Once we find the slap fighting equivalent of Ngannou (power) or Holloway (chin), the contests will be a foregone conclusion.
For 3) let me introduce you to vasily kamotsky and his teammate PAPA
We shouldn't have it. But were still watching it 🤣
When is episode 2 get uploaded
Illegal DQ KO, moves on anyway...........lol.
this shit is a travestly...I feel embarrassed that this is even on the main channel...
Mitchell's technique is interesting. Cupping his hand as the lead into the slap makes for a more steady swing.
Change slap to club and there’s the “technique”
@@ninjavibez4696 well sure most of the time they are using a palm strike not an actual slap. Most of the shots are a clubbing shot hidden just like most of the head turns are a flinch hidden at the right time. But also people know they can get away with cheating if they KO the other person they advance so cheating is encouraged.
I think we all know his wife came up with the “hits like a truck” saying
This is gonna flop hard
The proverbial slap in the face to all of the real UFC/Zuffa athletes past, present, & future.
Damn. We all know Dana is the real SLAP CHAMP
What we wanted: better pay and health insurance for fighters. What we got: POWER SLAP!!!!
Stepping and Clubbing is not slapping its just power KO, which is really what show is all about
03:14 - "My parents gave me that name" Me, "Yep, that's how you usually get a name"
