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

[TMLT87]

The same two posters as usual citing that this is a race war instead of a takeover of all
Seven pages to repeat Thé same thing over and over , with the old guy cheerleader cheering on

TKO is after everyone’s money not just one ethnic club

Talk about making a huge story about nothing and trying to ring it about racism
The last I saw , the UFC was made up of all kinds

Green is green no matter where it comes from

Yep, mentally stuck 20 years ago when it comes to their perception of what demographics participate in/watch the UFC.

They are stuck hundreds of years in their view of life and thirty years with US ruling boxing. Can’t take their posts seriously.

Remember boys & girls Tko has a nf deal to show the wwe & they're discussing a deal to show the ufc exclusively on nf now the espn deal is almost over.
Now imagine a boxing league on nf with no ppv & with Dana in charge he'll pay extra for great performances to advertise the new league. The casuals will eat it up.
That's how the ufc exploded, one great fight between Griffin & Bonnar rip.

I think that Turki/Dana will just end up buying the various rival promoters e.g. Matchroom, Top Rank etc just like Dana did with Pride & Strikeforce in the UFC. However, I think that will be their LAST move after signing all the promising talent to back them into a corner and lower the price.

You can't buy out every promoter in boxing. Maybe they could buy out all of the major American and British promoters but Asia has plenty of promoters, Australia, Germany, Russia etc.

You could argue that when a promoter from countries not GB or the US wants to make real money for his fighter he needs to come to GB, the US or now Saudi Arabia but controlling anything but the equivalent of the "Champions League" of boxing isn't possible.

You have to be really, really dumb to not understand that. And yes, the 2 guys you are talking about really are that dumb.
