The promoter notes that a large fee plays a big role for boxers
Famous promoter Bob Arum said that negotiations on holding a big boxing evening with fights of world champions Oleksandr Usyk And Tyson Furyas well as ex-champions Anthony Joshua And Deontay Wilderuntil you get very far. Arum cannot predict whether the parties will be able to agree on an event.
“Negotiations have not progressed, but there is time for them to take place. I hope, especially given that the organizers are throwing away so much money, that this double evening will actually take place. But I have absolutely no idea if this is real. I have no idea”.
“Again, the money the Saudis are supposed to shell out for this evening far exceeds the fees the fighters will earn anywhere else in the world. Don’t dismiss it, boxers need to maximize income. This determines the location of their duel.
“I’m not optimistic, I’m not pessimistic. This is a crazy question. It’s not in my hands.”
Recall that Skill Challenge Entertainment plans to hold a match of champions Usyk-Fury and a face-to-face fight of two former world champions Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder in the Middle East in December.
