Well thats rather vague. If you have such a stellar understanding of what is going on, then by all means elaborate. What is this structure?
I dont know specifically but when he started he said he will fix boxing. That evidently,along with events since,was referri by to going over the alphabet soup and actually making the best fight the best. For that you have to overpay. But evidently as businessmen they have some sort of plan to make it profitable. How exactly I dont know but I assume it has to do with TKO Boxing,otherwise it wouldnt have been created because from what we alteady know TKO wont have the same payments. How this all will tie in to make it to the big fights seamlessly I assume there is a plan aswell which we dont know now.
he is sponsoring the canelo card So if that is $20-$30 & the Ryan card is $ $60-$80 as long as it’s $100 for both I will likely buy.
So you literally don´t know even to guess why the fights are on PPV, but you have the audacity to to question Kirk´s and I financial literacy... The fights are on PPV to earn money, because clearly they have a limited budget. Don´t get me wrong, the budget is obviously substantial, but it´s not enough to offer the fights on regular DAZN.
Turki made it known a few months back that the Saudi Government is only funding Riyadh fights in SA, but that his personal company(Ring Magazine) would fund fights outside of SA. I believe TKO is funded by Turki himself and not by the Saudi Government.
I dont need to guess-that least is evident. It s self explanatory,I mean I dont see how or why it should be explained. Should I also point out to you guys not to forget to breathe aswell I guess?
Correct. It s separate entities but the same money. As I said they dont have a budget,thry do whatever
If it´s evident and self explanatory, then you should have no issues explaining it. But since you don´t know, you refuse to explain. "They are building a structure"
Not trying to argue for the sake of arguing, but how is it the same money? If you mean that his source of income is provided by the Saudi Government, I would agree. But his personal money is his to do as he pleases even if it was his last million. He is only given a budget to spend on sports from the Saudi's as chairman of the GEA, so that means the what he spends on for Ring and possibly TKO, doesn't come from the Saudi Government, but from his personal wealth..
If I'm not mistaken, the Canelo card is sponsored/funded by Saudi's for Riyadh. The Ryan card is directly from Turki's personal assets but I'm under the impression that both cards will come at a cost of $30 each for the American market....
You dont get that all of that, doesnt make giving Ryan 20m to fight Romero, proper building or good business lol. Its just burning money. Obviously everyone knows they can afford it. Doesnt make it 'smart' lol. If you think they couldnt pull TKO off without paying two to four times more than what fights are worth (or more) right now, I don't know what to tell you lol. Theyre doing this only because they can. Again, you think someone doing bad business is 'smart' because theyve inherited richness. But in reality bad business is vad business. Theyre just too rich for it to matter. At any rate Im rooting for them and this was a stupid discussion, literally arguing with someone that burning tens of millions of dollars needlessly isnt "smart" just because the people doing it were born wealthy lmao. Personally I don't care, Im happy for boxing as long as this doesn't have unintended consequences like fighters fighting even less often or retiring too early. Hopefully Turki is using this money to sign them to longer term obligations and with commitments. But weve seen with Bivol already thats not always the case. Anyways, good luck to them at the end of the day Im a fan of what theyre doing.
