Saudi Arabia is turning into the Mecca (no pun) of Boxing. I just hope they get to host the 2030 World Cup as well.
After that, the sky is the limit. Hopefully the US and UK will eventually put the interest of fighters and fans first.

Holy crap this is some card. Every fight is a ****er. People can hate on SA all they want but this is the most ridiculous card I seen in a long time if ever.

Saudi is sports washing in the middle of the desert. Vegas was g@mbling promotion in the middle of the desert.

Who cares anymore? It's amazing how many people expect the sport of boxing to set a moral and ethical example. Boxing has never been anywhere close to that mark.

Preach!!
A lot of ignorant people here. Boxing in the 50’s all through to the 90’s was controlled by the Mob. Outcomes were decided way before the fights, promoters stole from their own fighters and foreign fighters got robbed all the time. The robbery continues to this day.
And they wanna talk smack about SA! The Gaul of it all!!
Viva SA!!

Yeah and each one will likely cost more than this one card will cost.
