      But how long will they sustain that ? A day will come when they find something else to smuggle their money in, and then we'll be in trouble...

        At 92 the big question is, will The Bobfather be around to see it, let alone stage it ?

            Dude don't look fine. He looks like death warmed up.

            i wonder if he's got a bet on with Don King to see who lives longest.

            Loser pays for the funeral.

                Agree, he doesn't look great. But, if it was the case he was 92 and pottering around the garden, taking the dog for a walk then fair play. But he is travelling all round the world - Japan on Christmas Day, the Saudi Arabia, then Canada - i'm decades younger but reckon I'd not look my best with all that jetlag.

                Yeah - him and DK maybe have a pact with the devil keeping them going - both cases absolutely amazing - my takeaway is keeping yourself relevant sends a strong message to the mind that you are still alive and kicikng - it's known as the Expectation Effect - google it

                  Exactly what will happen.

                  They'll walk away and the big names will be marinating... while looking for the next generation of fighters who haven't been given any limelight as the Saudis only care about the top tier of the heaviest weights.

                    I think Saudis only want some big fights with Usyk7Fury/Joshua/Ngannou involved and Bivol - Beterbiev also, which is great.

                    I don`t expect them to stay in the game for a long.

                      I reckon the dude sleeps in a coffin of dirt from his homeland that gets carted around on planes so he doesn't get jetlag and mostly flies at night.
