Hearn doubts White and Alralikh’s ability to replicate UFC’s success in the boxing landscape

Promoter Eddie Hearn disagrees with Dana White and Turki Alralkh’s view of “Broking Broken” and how they will solve it with their new league, which they create with an association. Hearn says boxing was “hot” before Turki became involved.

Risk of fragmentation

Eddie states that the UFC model, Dana White, says he will use in the new boxing league to create a dominant force that changes the sport, will not work. Boxing is not mma. It is impossible develop the same centralized league This controls boxing like Dana with UFC because boxing is already established and fragmented.

When White created the UFC, MMA was still in his childhood. Dana is naive, believing that what worked in one sport will work in another.

Turki’s financial ability to attract the best talent is the only thing the new league is going to look for. However, achieving the best fighters will not guarantee that the new domain league. As we have seen for years, charisma is more important than talent. Hearn and other promoters have fighters who can always sell for their personalities, if not their talent.

The new league that Turki and White create throughout their own belts will not be different from the other promotional companies that will still work. So instead of four different sanctioning bodies, there will now be five, which will further fragment the sport as if we see MMA. In this sport, we now have these organizations:

– UFC
– PFL
– a championship
– Bellator MMA
– Rizin Fighing Federation
– Cage Warriors Fighting Championship
– Alliance Legacy Fighting Alliance
– Offrier of martial arts

“I do not agree with Dana (White) and his excellence (Turki Alralikh) when he says” boxing is broken. “Boxing is not broken. It is hotter than ever, and it was hot before his excellence came in,” said Eddie Hearn to TV IFLreacting to Dana White and Turki Alshikh creating a new promotion and planning to form the TKO Boxing League.

“Boxing is not MMA. The models do not have to go to another sport like this with their history, with their management, with their purses especially. It seems that TKO has taken the dates of ESPN from the first rank. It is clear that with ESPN and this platform, TKO has a great opportunity to start this league.

“I don’t think he is delighted when I say,” I’m the best promoter in the world, “Hearn said when he was asked if Turki and the new TKO’s new TKO box threaten his company.” For me, when you have a big business, you have 35 shows a year outside the Riyadh season, whether it is Riyadh or not, I don’t care. “
