Our excellency flexing his power

[MulaKO]

Turki is clearly a bit backward I think. I don’t think he understands the implications of weight classes. I’m ok with him investing in the sport and allowing an experienced promoter or matchmaker to select the fights like Warren has done for the two previous cards. However, I think it’s a terrible idea to let some mega rich Sheikh with no experience in boxing start putting fights together.

My thinking exactly cause if they keep s , where will it end

The thing about Fury-AJ is that it probably would've happened even without Saudi involvement. It was always going to be huge in the UK so both guys would've wanted it, and they tried to make it happen in the past.

I do think Jai should stick to collecting belts vs the champions at his own weight for a while. He looks like the best cruiserweight but it still has to be proven.

None of the contenders at 175 look to be exceptional so the Bivol-Beterbiev winner might be low on obvious opponents. But the Saudis could always offer Canelo or Benavidez a big payday to step up.

Answer me this , what about if mma guy wins the fight ?
Does it make any sense ?
This 1-1 record is the unified heavyweight champion

Both guys already expressed their will to move up, so I see no problem. The excellency is just following their fishes.

Nope , I read Bivol wasn't to keen on the idea of moving up
Which would make total sense with him saying he can make 168 comfortably for a fight vs Canelo

Yeah that would suck. But then the blame is on AJ and Fury for their performances. If McGregor had ktfo Floyd, I would blame Floyd, not the promoters.

[Eff Pandas]

I know for a fact that Beterbiev said if he didn’t get the Bivol fight , he would move up to cruiserweight
But I don’t think Bivol feels the same way
Still , imo , should be the boxers decision if they would like to or not

And I think it will be. To me it always is. Look at Ryan rn. Ppl love to dog Ryan fairly or unfairly at times, but the boxer ultimately has the power to say yay or nay about a fight regardless of what fans or their promoter thinks is best for them or wanna see.

I don't see anything about this situation that says it'll go any differently. And I'm sure if Bivol wins & doesn't wanna move up to 200 some fans will dog him for that unfairly, but thats just how things go in any entertainment sphere. Some % of fans will be fickle about whatever road you take or don't take.

This isn’t a boxing promoter but a gentleman with coin flaunting his power
My point is , he’s gonna be the schoolyard bully , like say pushing us to accept a fighter with a 1-1 record and calling it realistic
Nah , sorry but this won’t end well
If we keep saying yes about everything , one day we’re gonna have to ask permission to chit in your own house
Iron rule comes to mind , think about it

AJ is damaged psychotically but I don't think he's that damaged.

but to the point, beating a guy with no current title, wouldn't make him any sort of unified anything

Chit like this will bring injuries etc etc etc
Why , cause guys will do it thinking of the money and only the money
Not If tomorrow I’m brain dead or a casualty
