UFC President Dana white recieves approval to host a slapping contest, while Trevor Noah makes a funny Will Smith reference

“Is Will Smith a reigning champ”- &#8216;The Tonight Show’s&#8217; Trevor Noah Quips, as Dana White Turns Slapping Into a Sport

Did Dana White take inspiration from Will Smith? The UFC is one of the most
well-known organizations in the world. The Organization primarily holds MMA
fights. Though President Dana White has managed to keep it entertaining. Of
course, the UFC goes beyond the extent of organizing matches, by adding on the
glitz, glam, and drama.

Slapping contests are not a new concept. Even Arnold Schwarzenegger organized
during his Arnold Sports Festival. Now Dana White has received a nod of
acceptance to organize and monitor the sports. Picking up on the news was The
Daily Show host Trevor Noah.


TREVOR NOAH MENTIONS WILL SMITH AS UFC GETS SLAPPING CONTEST APPROVAL

Slap competitions have gone viral in the last few years over the internet.
Jumping on the bandwagon is UFC’s Dana White
[https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dana-white/] who acquired a license to
regulate this sport. Comedian and host Trevor Noah missed no chance to update us
on this interesting sport. On the topic, Noah gave a reference to the recent
Oscar Slapgate involving Will Smith.

The host cheekily slipped the line, “Is Will Smith the reigning champ”?

Looks like Smith may be over the incident, but it will be a long time before the
slap gate controversy leaves him, as it continues to stay a subject of laughing
matter. Trevor proposed the idea that the opponents should bad mouth each other
to make the slap even more interesting.

actor and Chris Rock during the Academy show. The South African comedian also
joked about how immigrant mothers would also be good at this game. The sport of
slapping consists of two competitors taking turns slapping each other across the
face as hard as possible. But only White knows how a game of this nature could
be regulated.

history, it will likely be a big affair, making the organization some big money.
Perhaps Will Smith could inaugurate the opening of one of the slapping contests?
What do you think of the idea? Let us know in the comments.
