It was a packed schedule on March 3rd, as not only was the UFC presenting UFC 222, but two major boxing events were happening at the Theater At Madison Square Garden, as well as at the Barclays Center. One person keeping an eye on both the UFC and the events transpiring in the boxing world was UFC President, Dana White, who was caught during the Stefan Struve and Andre Arlovski fight watching Deontay Wilder retain his WBC heavyweight title against Luis Ortiz on Showtime.

White, who has made it known that he is looking to expand into boxing, may have been scouting Wilder for a potential promotional deal with said venture.
