Comments Thread For: Everything we know so far about the new TKO boxing league - from payments to potential problems

In all honesty it seems like Dana and Turki are on different pages as I’ve been reading a lot contradictory statements from both guys
Are they trying to play good guy bad guy and see where it gets them ???
One seems bent over doing his own thing while the other seems to just wanna get along
This UFC concept won’t work in boxing which is to big and to wide , of a sport to actually function that way imo
The only way for it to work is kind of like thé PBC doing their own thing , lots of in house fights and having a spell over their fighters whether it’s contract or just flat out buying them out

I'm going to tell you the only way it works and I've been saying it for ten years now. PBC Top Rank and GBP has to team up on Amazon Prime. They have to put by giones aside and realize that Dana and Turki are public enemy#1. No fighter on their platforms are going to go fight for 25k. The WBC WBA IBF need to start shunning any fighters that are tied to Turki immediately. Force them and their teams to decide to stick with the home team or go to Turki-Town

That ship has pulled back into port my friend. Bob Arum will not be under the control of Dana White on TKO. Wants ESPN gives him up this summer he has nowhere to go. Same goes for Oscar

This is excellent news. Boxing needs less weight divisions are way too many. All these weight divisions and belts prevents the best from fighting the best

Yeah, so let's add yet another belt from yet another organisation!

Just goes to show you that Arabs are more tolerable to the alt right Brit’s and Mexicans than you FBAs are. You’ll never again see a promoter get the level of hate that Haymon did/had unless he comes from the same ethnicity

I'm a black Brit & Haymon's given me enough reasons to dislike his methods, obviously I don't know what anyone else's motivation is to hate him & we KNOW the racists hate him because that's what they do.

Same with Don King (of course Haymon isn't nearly as hated); sure the bigots hated him for being a black winner but he gave us plenty of legit reasons to dislike his methods, too.

I for the life of me have no idea what you being a "black Brit" has anything to do with you disliking Al Haymon for his methods. What methods has he done that has prevented anything from any promoter in the UK from giving you the fights that you want over there. Please enlighten me!

Well "I heard" that Bob and TR were talking to Amazon.
Yes Osacr is still at Dazn on a fight by fight basis and Oscar is all over the internet complaining how he basically knows Turki is trying to screw him.
And I posted a list of all the cross promotional fights that have been made since 2018. I guess you missed that one. I believe it was PBC sending about ten fighters to other networks. Top rank sent maybe two and Dazn sent ZERO. I just destroyed that argument real quick. Let me see if I can remember some off the top of my dome.....
