Hearn doubts to White & Alalshikh’s ability to repeat UFC success in the complex landscape of Boxing

Promoter Eddie Hearn disagrees with Dana White and Turki Alalshikh’s view of ‘Boxing is broken’ and how they will correct it with their new league, which they create with a partnership. Hearn says box was ‘hot’ before Turki got involved.

Fragmenting risk

Eddie points out that the UFC model, Dana White, says it will use on the new Boxing League to create a dominant power that changes the sport. Box is not mma. It is impossible to Develop the same centralized league This control box as Dana did with the UFC because boxing is already established and fragmented.

When White created the UFC, MMA was still in his infancy. Dana is naive and believes what works for him in one sport will work in another.

Turki’s financial ability to attract the best talent is the one thing the new league will do for it. However, getting the best fighters will not guarantee that the new league will dominate. As we have seen for years, Charisma is more important than talent. Hearn and other promoters have fighters who can always sell because of their personalities, if not their talent.

The new league that Turki and White create along their own belts will be no different from other promotional companies that will still work. So, instead of four different sanction bodies, there will now be five, which will further fragment the sport as we see in MMA. In that sport, we now have these organizations:

– ufc
– PFL
– one championship
– Bellator MMA
– Rizin Fighting Federation
– Cage Warriors Fighting Championship
– Legacy Fighting Alliance
– Confrontation of martial arts

“I disagree with Dana (white) and his excellence (Turki Alalshikh) when he says’ boxing is broken. ‘Boxing is not broken. It’s hotter than ever, and it was hot before his excellence enters, ”Eddie Hearn said ifl tvRespond to Dana White and Turki Alalshikh who create a new promotion and plan to form the TKO Boxing League.

‘Boxing is not MMA. The models don’t just turn to another sport like that with its history, with its management, especially with its wallets. TKO seems to have taken the dates of ESPN out of the top ranking. It is clear that TKO with ESPN and that platform has a wonderful opportunity to start this league.

“I don’t think I’m fooled when I say,” I’m the best promoter in the world, “Hearn said when asked if Turki and Dana’s new TKO Boxing League threatened his business. “For me, if you have a wonderful business, you have 35 shows a year outside the Riyadh season, whether it is the Riyadh season or not, it doesn’t really matter to me.”
