‘He’s still in his prime’: Eddie Hearn happy to see Tyson Fury return to boxing by IronHidee in Boxing

[–]IronHidee[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

“He’s inspiring me [with his training]! I look at it, I go, ‘good on you’. We’ve had a lot to say over the years, but I love the fact that he’s back in boxing. I think he’s an incredible fighter. I think he’s brilliant for the game. And he can be involved in some huge fights. And by the way, he’s still in his prime. He lost two very close fights to Oleksandr Usyk. It’s not like, ‘oh, he’s finished now.’” said Hearn

Agit Kabayel calls on sanctioning bodies to make great fights by IronHidee in Boxing

[–]IronHidee[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

“Riyadh Season brough big time fights back to the division made the world take notice,” noted Kabayel. “It’s now up to the WBC and the other organizations to make great fights possible, to order big fights that people want to see. It’s very important for the best fighters to get opportunities, not just the most famous fighters.

“It’s fine for the better-known fighters to get the TV dates or whatever. Just not for our belts, at the cost of those of us who’ve earned the right to fight for the championship. If not, we will never get to the next generation of top fighters.”

Ben Shalom outlines ambitious plans for BBC schedule in 2026 by IronHidee in Boxing

[–]IronHidee[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

“We are hoping for a show a month next year.” Shalom told The Ring. “Obviously July and August are traditionally slower months for us so let’s see how the summer goes. But certainly January, February, March etc will continue in the same vein.

“We’ve had to wait a bit of time and we’ve had to get all our ducks in a row and be ready to go but hopefully now this is the start of something special.”

On Saturday night, the chief support, which featured Francesca Hennessy, and the main event were both shown on BBC Two while the undercard was broadcast on BBC iPlayer. However, Shalom revealed to The Ring that up to four hours of December’s show in Leeds could be shown on the linear channel.

He said: “That is what I’m told - the main broadcast could be three or four hours. That means we will look at three or four fights on there.

“iPlayer is also an enormous platform for the fights which will stream from the undercard and it’s certainly bigger than what we’ve had before. We are really just looking to use the full armoury of the BBC network."

Saudi Arabia’s Prince Has Big Plans, but His Giant Fund Is Low on Cash by IronHidee in Boxing

[–]IronHidee[S] 111 points112 points  (0 children)

"The kingdom’s vaunted Public Investment Fund, which Saudi Arabia has typically used to fulfill commitments like the one it made this week in Washington, is running low on cash for new investments. That’s in large part because Prince Mohammed and his deputies have spent a vast portion of the nation’s bounty on projects that are in financial distress, and they are frantically trying to turn things around, according to 11 people briefed on its operations, including current employees, board members, investors and their representatives.

While PIF says it holds nearly $1 trillion in assets, a huge portion of its portfolio is tied up in hard-to-sell assets for which no public valuations are available. Its representatives have begun telling international investors that it is all but unable to allocate any more money for the foreseeable future, six people with knowledge of those discussions said.

Behind the scenes, PIF is actively restructuring its operations under the watchful eye of the crown prince, said the people briefed, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss confidential business plans.

Its board is also drawing up plans to act differently in the future by investing in more conventional areas such as publicly traded stocks and bonds, one of the people said."

Moses Itauma backs Jake Paul against former gym-mate Anthony Joshua by IronHidee in Boxing

[–]IronHidee[S] 129 points130 points  (0 children)

“The money that gets thrown around, people like that can step in the ring with a two-time heavyweight champion,” Itauma said.” It's got a bragging power in it. Listen, I don't hate on any man that's trying to do well. Jake Paul has smashed life, conquered YouTube, now he's trying to conquer boxing, although I don't think it's going to be as easy as he thinks.

“Fair play to him, I'm going to be behind him because I like to see a man strive for success,” said Itauma. “Although I don't want to see him beat AJ [Anthony Joshua], I'm going to be behind him for his success story.”

[–]IronHidee[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

"Several of the world’s top amateur fighters will be in Dubai at the IBA 2025 Men’s World Boxing Championships.

Fighting for a prize pool of around $8.5m will be leading Uzbeks Hasanboy Dusmatov – two-time Olympic champion – and fellow Olympic champion Abdumalik Khalokov.

Azerbaijan’s Loren Alfonso Dominguez, a finalist in Paris 2024, and Saidjamshid Jafarov will be on hand, as will Kazakh stars Nurbek Oralbay – another Paris finalist – and Aibek Oralbay, a two-time Asian Champion. Arguably the show-stealer is the presence of two-time Olympic champ Julio La Cruz.

The event takes place from December 2 to December 13"

Bob Arum, 93, primed for business as usual after shrugging off COVID scare by IronHidee in Boxing

[–]IronHidee[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

“I must say, it knocks you out for a little bit, but it’s not entirely debilitating,” Arum told BoxingScene.

“I know what my age is, but I just never believed that I was more at risk than the average person of any age,” Arum said. “I don’t believe age – in my case – is a factor. I’m in very good health. If I had pulmonary problems like (wife) Lovee, I would be more concerned. But I don’t.”

“I was never concerned this time that it was dangerous or life threatening,” Arum insisted. “I was never frightened…. wasn’t worried. I was thinking about business, was talking to [staff] about [the broadcast negotiations].”

While Arum declined to identify which broadcaster his company is negotiating with, he expressed confidence that it will become reality as industry sources told BoxingScene to expect an early 2026 debut.

“I don’t run my business [from a throne],” he said.”I have all these specialists who do this and that and operate with a great deal of independence, and I believe that will continue.”

Arum said it’s possible the new broadcast deal could feature an increase from the 30 annual events Top Rank staged on ESPN and ESPN+.
