Turki Allah King is getting it done. He really makes the b.s. that promoters have been pulling on boxing fans for years stand out like a glowing neon sore thumb. All of these fights that a few years ago were just impossible to make , just couldn't be done , along comes Turki and all of a sudden the fights get made.It just goes to show how all of that sides of the street" , " network issues" , and we can't work with them " b.s. was just that b.s. A bunch of greedy guys too full of their giant egos to admit that a piece of the pie is a million times better than none of the pie. It's about time that they conduct business like business and not " turf wars" . Thanks Turki.

Turki is getting it done cause he got more money than God
Promoters can’t pay that kind of money and then have a successful show
Just the reality of times

They both get it but Ortiz has shown more resolve in his fights after been tested. We haven’t seen Boots in that situation yet

Elheath is right , it's either have the fights in Saudi , or not have them at all. Just goes to show how all of the promoters and some of the fighters have been happily supplying the fans with sub standard product for so long. Shame on us for bending over for it too. Boycotts are easy to do and get publicity for. Ask Roy Jones Jr. about that. If the card is no good , don't pay for it. Close your wallet.

To bad its not a true title fight. But at least they'll be paid like it is

I don't have any idea what Turki pays , I haven't seen or heard any numbers and I don't know the particulars on the other promoters business either. But I do know that some fighters made plenty of big fights against the best competition and I don't recall them complaining about money or the promoters complaining about losing money. If you make the fights that the fans want to see the money will come. It's always been that way. It's just a lot easier and less risky to make b.s. fights within your own stable. That business model has a lot to do with the current state of boxing.

This is for the Limited Edition Super Platinum Universal Milky Way Championship Triple Eliminator . How much truer can a title fight be ?

Yes I definitely agree that greed is the key here
But just look at how all promoters are getting into bed with Turki
That and that only tells me he’s paying big money for these fights and their promoters all jumping aboard
And boycotts wouldn’t be successful here cause we’d lose out on any kind of fights unfortunately

Just a verbal agreement but at least is in the works, if it really gets official I got Virgil putting a beating on a very competitive Boots.
