Ratified Data Canelo vs. Crawford is September 12. This is the first part of the controversial recent league, leaving long -lasting promoters applying for hills.
The details are sketchy. But Turki Alalshikh confirmed that he would exploit the undisputed superpocrium master, Canelo Alvarez and the undisputed champion of Terenka Crawford to pay more attention to the recent TKO boxing league.
The head of UFC Dana White switches the codes for the first time, ten years of creation to direct the recent movement.
It was captivating that two free agents who are not attached to every promotional company would exceed the TKO card.
This development brings obvious and ominous realization that the types of fighters who have not concluded with the promoter will be the goal.
In addition, people in contracts may think that signing with their current promoter is not the best idea. It will remain a free agent encouraging the wealth of Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia Alalshikha will undoubtedly be the recent order of the day.
TKO will reveal more when they establish and reveal the format and structure of the purse layer. Details should appear before September, when TKO 1 presents league matches on the card.
This scenario leaves promoters who can boast of significant stables such as Matchroom and Golden Boy, fighting to ensure their longevity outside current contracts.
TKO will try to catch everyone approaching the end of his offers, not only for the league itself, but also to ensure that the huge main fight will accompany the luminaires.
“We’ll get a fight from the Riyadh season on September 12 at the Las Vegas stadium,” said Alalshikh after Canelo defeated William Scull.
“Legend Canelo defends her Ring magazine [and undisputed WBC, WBA, IBF and WBO] Title vs. The Great People’s Crawford.
“The television platform will soon be announced with a great surprise. My brother Dana White promotes the first boxing event TKO with me.
“It will be crazy,” he added.
Reports are common that Netflix is very interested in broadcasting the TKO league, which will not affect the Canelo performance on Saturday evening.
Canelo threw a second number of blows in a 12-round duel when he took the IBF belt from SCULL born in Cuba in what many fans described as a lifeless fight.
The Mexican star has improved to 63-2-2, 39 KO, stretching its long series without knockout. The 34-year-old goes to his September duel against 37-year-old Crawford that he has not stopped anyone since Caleb Plant in 2021.
Immediately after stopping the plant, Canelo suffered a decision -making loss against his next opponent, Dmitry Bivol, which may be the main reason for using a cautious style since then.
Crawford stopping would only be a ticket ticket that must exploit the type of fight, which can justify high Pay-Per-View prices.
Alalshikh seems that he is still going to offer many premium events live after the initial promise of lower prices in 2024.
This weekend, the 90 USD PPV package was marked as “the worst in history” after three of the four matches were on the six best lists of the smallest blows that landed in 12-rounds.
The history of this category dates back to forty years.

Oscar Collazo remained undefeated and won the WBO International flyweight title on Saturday night with a devastating two-round victory over Neider Valdez.
The unified WBA, WBO and Ring Magazine minimumweight champion improved to 15-0 with 12 knockouts after defeating Valdez three times before Mexico’s corner stopped the fight at 2:35 of the second round.
Making his final appearance at 112 pounds, Collazo showed his strength immediately transferred to the upper division, defeating Valdez from the opening bell at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside, California.
The Puerto Rican striker repeatedly found a home for his left hand and left no doubt about the outcome before the fight was called off.
“I felt great at 112 pounds. I love this division. In fact, I want to stay here for a long time,” Collazo said.
Knockdowns
Collazo admitted that he had already called for the fight to be stopped.
“After the third knockdown I was basically saying, ‘Never again, never again’. It was the right decision for his safety. His corner was well checked.

The victory added another belt to Collazo’s collection and enhanced his growing reputation as one of boxing’s most invigorating champions in the lower weight division.
Looking ahead, Collazo has made it clear who he wants next.
“The fight with Ricardo Sandoval definitely interests me. I really want that fight. I’m ready for gigantic fights. I’m ready to make history. That’s the fight I want next.”
Sandoval currently holds the WBA flyweight title, making this one of the most attractive fights available if Collazo continues his climb in weight.
The event was broadcast live on DAZN and was promoted by Golden Boy Promotions in partnership with Miguel Cotto Promotions.
