Irish boxing sensation Callum Walsh is going all in on Dana White’s vision for the sport.
Earlier this year, White announced that he was finally getting into the boxing business after more than a decade of rumors and speculation. Though details remain under wraps, the UFC CEO ruffled some feathers when he revealed that this new boxing endeavor would function outside of the sport’s four major governing bodies — the WBA, WBC, WBO, and IBF — and utilize the UFC model to rank fighters and crown champions.
