WWE issues in Saudi bad omen for Boxing?

[Blond Beast]

Anyone concerned how the boxing may come off in Saudi after WWE’s issues?

[DaNeutral.]

Well seeing as there has already been Boxing in Saudi id say we dont have to look at something else to see how Boxing may do in Saudi.

Did they ever explain what happened?

WWE held events there prior also. Events worth 45-60 million reportedly. Apparently they weren’t paid for the last event leading up to the current one. I’m just saying there was friction over money, the live stream and exit out of the country. What Saudi boxing match are u referencing that comes close to that sort of event or like the one in December? I’m just saying the latest big money event had issues, it doesn’t mean things won’t work out for the December 2nd match. But if ur gonna reference sum past no money fight between two people nobody heard of as being more relevant than a big money event that has just happened, I just don’t get it.

You're not allowed to ask questions like this. They reflect poorly on our Hearn our Lord and Saviour.

Rumble in the Jungle, thrilla in Manila. I used to think a huge fight meant an obscure location. Tokyo. South Africa. I still think crazy things are more likely to happen in rare places. An exotic location might mean a Canadian judge, and we both know that prolly means a crazy score. I’m hoping for just a pinch of “only in Saudi Arabia”...

Are the same people involved? If not then i don't see your point in bringing it up.

It’ll be fine, Hearns one way or another’s will find a way to make this happen!

It’s too much money to pass up and too much money to let it go down the drain!

If they have to have helicopters with snipers buzzing around the ring, former conmen turned Astute accredited advisors or hire a coalition army an private contractors then it will get done!

Hearn doesn’t give a dàmn if he has to put it on top of a pyramid with a ring apron on it!

Of course. Everything is run by MBS and the House of Saud. I mean the fact that one family has had a vice grip on every aspect of Saudi Arabia for decades now is one of the major criticisms. The WWE have been doing big business with Saudi each last few years. They had financial issues due to non payment and rumoured that their employees were held from leaving one way or another. DAZN has never done business with Saudi as far as I know. This latest ordeal with WWE is the closest analog to what’s going down on Dec. 2nd. There’s every right to bring it up. U think this precedent wouldn’t matter to Hearn or DAZN?!!!

If he don't even know what boxing has been on over there he is on the wrong forum.
