The New Power Slap League Is Not Only The Stupidest Thing I’ve Seen Recently, It’s Also Pure Evil Promoting Violence For The Sake Of Violence

January 23, 2023 admin News 0

Dana White’s controversial Power Slap league has drawn criticism from fight fans and non-fans, alike, and is now being condemned by a leading neuroscientist.

I grew up in a town called Pompton Lakes in New Jersey, and in the 1940’s and ’50’s, my little town was home to boxing champion Joe Louis and his training camp. My dad had fond high school memories working at the local sweet shoppe, a place called Bob and Ed’s, where Joe Louis would often visit after a hard day of training to get some ice cream, and treat the kids with coins and handshakes. Needless to say I grew up a boxing fan, but did not like it when things got too violent. In the early 2000’s we had the launch of the UFC which was mesmerizing and unsettling at the same time. Now in 2023 we have something called the Power Slap League which looks like it was hatched in the pit of Hell.

Power Slap is not a sport by any stretch of the imagination, it is a pure endurance contest akin to standing in the middle of the road and allowing a speeding car to just hit you to see if you can take it. It is pure senseless violence for the sake of violence, has already produced fatalities and brain damage, and is horrifically frightening to watch. If the Devil had a flatscreen, this is a show he would have on endless loop. There is a fantastic sense of evil connected with Power Slap, and I believe, a potent harbinger of the end times in which we live. No Christian should have anything to do with this garbage, though sadly many likely will. If you can watch and enjoy a show like this, you need to check up on your salvation.

Dana White’s new slap-fighting league is slammed by expert, who rips the UFC president and TBS over a clip of a defenseless fighter suffering apparent head injury

FROM THE DAILY MAIL UK: Chris Nowinski, a Harvard Ph.D. and former wrestler who has criticized the sports world’s handling of concussions, took issue with one recent clip in which one combatant, Chris Kennedy, appeared to show immediate signs of a significant head injury, known as a fencing posture.

‘This is so sad,’ tweeted Nowinski, the co-founder and president of the Concussion Legacy Foundation. ‘Note the fencing posture with the first brain injury. He may never be the same.’

A fencing posture or fencing response involves victims’ hands shooting into an unnatural position with their forearms flexed outward.

Nowinski, who also played college football for Harvard, took aim at White, the promoter, and TBS, which airs the brutal competition.

‘@danawhite & @TBSNetwork should be ashamed,’ Nowinski added. ‘Pure exploitation. What’s next, ”Who can survive a stabbing?”’

The sport was first popularized three years ago in Eastern Europe with a series of viral videos starring 370-pound Russian sensation Vasiliy Khamotiskiy. Known as ‘Dumpling,’ Khamotiskiy was seen in one video knocking a massive opponent unconscious to win 30,000 rubles, which was about $475 at the time. Other viral videos show Dumpling training by squashing watermelons and flipping tractor tires.

Dana White, who is facing backlash after video emerged of him slapping his wife at a New Year’s Eve party in Mexico, has defended PowerSlap, insisting that health and safety measures are taken seriously.

‘We spend the money to make sure we have two healthy people in there and proper medical attention during and after the fight,’ White said. ‘These are all the things we need to educate people on, just like we needed to educate people on mixed martial arts.’

As White told Just The Fights, he believes slap fighting is safer than boxing, where fighters can defend themselves, while being struck hundreds of times in a bout.

Slap fighting, on the other hand, typically involves only a few blows per match, although combatants are prohibited from defending themselves.

‘In Slap, they take three-to-five slaps per event. Fighters in boxing take 300-400 punches per fight. And guess what: you know what my answer to that is? If you don’t f***ing like it, don’t watch it. READ MORE
