It is reported that one of the divisions of PIF will fully finance the created organization, and TKO will take over management functions and will receive about 30 million dollars annually for this.

The initiative to create the league belongs to UFC president Danny White and the TKO company. Tournaments with the participation of promising boxers will be held not only in Saudi Arabia, but also in the USA and Europe.
