However, to explain it briefly, Power Spank features women competitors who spank each other. A parody of White’s Power Slap, where fighters slap each other in the face. Lingerie Fighting Championships is run by former MLW executive Mister Saint Laurent. As per a report by MMA Junkie, Power Slap sent a cease-and-desist to Power Spank and demanded that they stop using the name.
Lingerie Fighting Championships, based in Las Vegas, Nevada, is preparing to disclose the information publicly in order to follow laws applicable to public companies. “We respect Power Slap and its founders, but we will not be bullied into abandoning protected speech. We will defend our right, and the right of every American, to free speech, and if that takes us to the Supreme Court, we are prepared to go,” Shaun Donnelly, CEO of LFC, said.

Power Spank began last month when Lingerie Fighting Championship seemingly began to mock the Power Slap concept by performing it at the start of their events.

Donnelly also addressed the dangers of Power Slap, where fighters have often been knocked unconscious, including former WWE Superstar Jake Hager, who recently had to undergo double surgery. “We watched one of our fighters get seriously hurt [at Power Slap]. Power Spank is our answer: same energy, same theatrics, none of the brain damage. And let’s be honest, a spank is a lot more fun to watch than a slap,” Donnelly shared. As of now, neither Power Slap nor Dana White have officially commented on the situation.
