      That would be great but It's not a tournament, the Saudis have told us repeatedly.
      It's just 2 fight's, one hopefully for undesputed.
      After that Hrgovic & Zhang/Joyce are next in line.
      Hrgovic and Joyce/Zhang suck and will be disposed of quickly by any of Fury, Usyk, or Wilder. It's just a matter of time.

          I know the Saudi's don't really care about money but I don't expect this promotion company to last too long, their three biggest names - Wilder, Jack, Usyk - are all 35+ fighters at the tail ends of their careers.

              saudi need to really shake things up and make a saudi strap, instead of paying the orgs 3% the saudi strap pays u, all these boxers holding up the strap with a smiling king on it

                this could be a good thing, I'm fine with Saudi's investing into boxing as long as they can deliver the big fights

                maybe that is why Tyson Fury, Teofimo Lopez and Ryan Garcia could be looking to get TF out of their current situations

                Saudi's want the Heavyweight Division they have Usyk and Wilder, Fury likely next but yeah Edward not letting AJ go. Maybe Ruiz join next as well but this is a good thing

                  I'm okay with it.

                  They can't be any more corrupt than us

                    No fighters could refuse the crazy money but boxing will suffer , nothing better than a couple of beers and a great atmosphere .You couldn't think of a worst place to put on major fights than the Middle East.
