Is already happening: Usyk isn’t with any major promotional outlet. He deals with the Saudis directly. So does many fighters. It’s a good thing for boxing if the Saudis become the major promoter in Boxing, then we as fans get the best fighting the best.
I Want To Say Whats Up To You Guys. I Saw Teddy At Church Today And It Was Good Talking To Him. He Is The Best Trainer In The Biz And A HOF'er But He Is An Even Better Person. Respect.
It seems Turki is putting together fights that none of the other promoters would. I'm all good with him being the Dana White of boxing. It has the potential to save the sport from fading away. Especially here in the states. He won me over with his recent card that had so many fights where each deserved to be it's on main event.
Cheers!
100 Turki is Saving Boxing • no other doubt about it .. otherwise promoters would never collab and fights would stall out boxing woulda stayed Stale … only person trying to clog it up are ppl like Wahid .. who making wild demands and think they are bigger than the Sport .. but TURKI /Saudi Currently Run Boxing 🥊 biggest best combat events outside the UFC go through Saudi / Turki 🫡
Everytime I see Turki Alashikh, I am reminded of the movie 'Rockrolla' where the russian mafia boss says to his number one, "Let them be, we need them at the moment. It makes the peasant feel royal!"
Uysk called it, then it happens, then he records it, and you guys think it's legit... 2 weeks before the fight. The same chicken shit move charles oliveiera did.
Hope so
I hope so. At least we get big fights. I’ll even start wearing a turban if they get rid of these lame promotions
A guy named turkey representing Saudi Arabia
And Christmas
Which is kind of ironic considering Turkey(Ottoman's) use to rule. What is now Saudi Arabia. 🙂😀
A word that sounds like another word from another language has another meaning? Wow!
@@JONNOG88 You don't know anything about history, you liar. The Ottoman Empire only ruled Medina and Mecca in order to put an Islamic touch on its rule. And when it set its foot in the rest of the Arabian Peninsula, it was cut off
Prediction on DEVIN VS GARCIA?
So if you are a top fighter why do you need a promoter?
Tbh theres no need for promoters at this point. If a guy has a name then he can deal with saudi arabia directly.👌🏾👌🏾
No
lol a cut can be legit but the circumstances on how n when it happened is why its fckn fishy
like if 8/10 fights have issue and furys the thing they have in common its time to question the gypsy duck
only 2 fights that were "easy" to make was chisora (bum/gatekeeper/friend/already beaten) and francis (ufc fighter who in roughly 80% of peoples mind won)
Sadly Boxing much like Football, F1 & Golf. Is now subject to shameless sportswashing. Mostly from Gulf States. *Still* annoyed that Fury Vs Usyk *didnt* get to take place here in 🇬🇧. I mean say what you will about Fury. But he can fill Wembley (90k seats). No doubt.
9:03
Fury was hit with an uppercut not elbow, you have wrong information
Teddy ...Fury is a coward stop it please.. he is running from usyk
according to various sources on the net this turki guy isn't that rich !!!
The king of Saudi Arabia is the richest person in the world. Since MBS is basically the ruler it's him.
Money is coming from an investment fund
hes not even in the top 50 rich list,, granted hes got plenty of money. but my point was this turki guy hes a royal adviser and not that rich yet everyone seems to think the money is coming from him, he is just acting like eddy hearn or warren a promoter
@@scotexscarrier8461 anyone with a clue or has basic knowledge about Saudi Arabia knows he's not funding the fights. He's just the face of it. MBS can't be the face of it or LIV cuz he had Khashoggi killed n ppl would flip a $hit
Teddy is just becoming old and senile. Someone else needs to take over his spot. We need a fresher and younger mind
Boxing has always been ripe for a takeover just need money and land the Saudi sheikh has plenty of both, so why not it’s makes more sense than buying 33 Lamborghini’s.
