“Promising boxers will have a chance to prove themselves in professional sports”, — write: sport.ua
The head of the General Directorate of Entertainment of Saudi Arabia, Turki Al-Sheikh, has previously repeatedly stated the desire to create an interesting league that will allow promising boxers to show themselves in professional sports.
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.
