Dana knew he couldn't get away with paying peanuts so he hooked up with Turki.
He tried the landscape locally and no one with a pulse budged on his terms.

The one that beat Broner and gave Floyd his toughest fight… yes, most likely
Hard to pick Tank until he hasn’t even been to 147, we don’t know how the power would translate
Not sure about Mikey either, he hasn’t been so impressive above 135 but at 135 he looked great and he is the kind of matchup Tank could struggle with

Seems like a conflict of interest for Turki
Though he has enough money to have a promotional outfit and pay other promoters for Riyadh cards I guess. To me one of the best parts of Turki was he didn't have an incentive to prioritize one promoter over another. Can he maintain that after partnering with Dana
that's a really good point
ironically this venture might lead to some network actually picking it back up for regular TV

Not suprised Turki is bringing in Dana White.....this new boxing promotion is supposedly going to sign boxers too..All these promotions who been surviving off that Turki money gonna be hoed BADLY..no mention of that snake Eddie Hearn either.....He getting outsnaked 
Them numbers they been doing with their Saudi events been tragic....they need to do something....can't be losing money forever.
They trying to turn boxing into UFC while the UFC is dying currently...gonna be interesting to see the next few years.

They can lol, the whole point is to wash the image of their country clean by hosting these big sport events, and alao try to make it a more attractive tourist destinationNot suprised Turki is bringing in Dana White.....this new boxing promotion is supposedly going to sign boxers too..All these promotions who been surviving off that Turki money gonna be hoed BADLY..no mention of that snake Eddie Hearn either.....He getting outsnaked

It’s more a long term strategic investment of their regime than a traditional business with the goal of making profit. It’s state level, Turki is literally one of MBS’ cronies…
Is it good for the sport? Recently and in the near future, sure, but don’t get things mixed up, making money on these events is just a “nice to have” for them, they’ll get bored of boxing long before their money would dry up.
Wtf..this sounds messy
