UFC president Dana White is uncharacteristically calm a week out from trying to pull off a spectacle worthy of his vow to put on the greatest sporting event of all time.
“I got into this for the stress,” he said by phone this week. “Why would I have wanted to do this if I didn’t think it was going to be hard? That’s what makes it so fun. I love it. And we’re ready. We’re good to go. It’s just all about rehearsing and making sure it goes off seamlessly.”
That will be easier said than done considering the scope of what the UFC is trying to accomplish next Saturday at Sphere.
