Turki Alalshikh is in the fight for the sale of PPV boxing for 90 USD

Turki Alalshikh could blow up his chances of loading 90 USD fans for PPV boxing after one of the most tough weekends of his term.

Arabian Saudi Arabian Matchmaker collected something that looked like a distinctive package of remuneration for a view with the participation of Ryan Garcia, Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez and Canelo Alvarez.

Alalshikh planned for May 2 and 3 on May 3 from Recent York to Saudi Arabia announced the price of USD 59.99 for each or USD 90 for two combined.

The eyebrows were immediately raised because Alalshikh stated a few months earlier that he wanted to charge only $ 20 per PPV during a conversation with TalkSport.

He said in September: “You mention PPV, I think this is my next great fight and I want your advice too” to Jordan and White Show.

Alalshikh added: “I dream of PPV with a good price, which will make the fans content, force them to subscribe and make them watch it legally.

“Usually, when I see high PPV, many people go illegally, it is not fit for boxing and platform.

“I will try to press our Riyadh season shows in the amount of less than 20 pounds in England and less than $ 20 around the world.

“I would prefer that a million fans will subscribe and buy PPV for £ 20 than less than £ 500,000 (for £ 40).

“People walk illegally because the price is high. In the future it will not build boxing.

“If I give fans a good fights at a good price, I will enhance the base of fans.”

In retrospect, these words could have been Alalshikha’s efforts to sell the bivol vs. Beterbiev. The fight between the two best lithe heavyweight was offered at a reduced price of USD 15.

However, only six months later, realizing that the next return of PPV was strongly hit in fans and the media.

It was another promise broken in the same ILK as when Dazn said that she would endure the salary at the sight of the stream transmission service in 2018.

Another movement of Alalshikha will be subject to huge control, and fans question the motives of a beginner filmmaker.

Last weekend Times Square and Canelo turned out to be a complete flop. On Friday, the fight of Garcia and Haney Haney with Rolly Romero and Jose Ramirez entered the unwanted list of Kompubox.

Only the defense of Super Lightweight, Lopeza against Arnold Barboz Jr. Only on Undercard, she experienced ridicule when Garcia and Haney’s fights landed in the top five to get the smallest blows thrown in twelve times.

When the reaction to the event in Recent York reached Crescendo, the main event of Canelo with William Scull on Saturday, unfathomic overtook the other two on the list.

Guadalajara, a favorite of Mexico, recorded a boxing schedule when he added Sculls IBF Super Middle Wweight Belt to his versions of WBA, WBO and WBC.

It was the best warrior with Nokaut Tokyo, Nayya Inoue, fighting on the Supreme Rang card on Sunday in Las Vegas to save the weekend and snatched the winner. Inoue stopped Ramon Cardenas in eight rounds of an stimulating battle on T-Mobile Arena.

On Monday, Oscar de la Hoya intensified Turk’s misery with “emergency flap”.

However, General Entertainment Authorityhead is in the face of a significant throw before Canelo vs. Crawford, an event for which Alalshikh will undoubtedly want to download over USD 59.99.

This is a current reminder for PBC in Prime Video, ESPN and Netflix, who will examine the PPV ad of PPV to determine the gaps on the market.

Four Canelo fights with the Riyadh season are a jewel in the crown and maybe that’s why Alalshikh had to withdraw with the promise of PPV.

Pun for Pound Star set Crawford (in the United States), Chris Eubank Jr. (Wembley Stadium in Great Britain) and the potential rematch of Dmitry Bivol (Riyjadu season) as part of his contract. All three would probably have the purchase of over USD 50 in some territories.

Alalshikh also has this summer Oleksandr Usyk vs Daniel Dubois on PPV.

Jake Paul’s fight with Julio Emperar Chavez Jr. It can be a yard in which Alalshikh measures its September competition at the Allegian stadium. However, rumors are common that Paul vs. Chavez Jr. He could land freely at Netflix.

Because the boxer and promoter has an offer for Katie Taylor vs Amanda Serrano III on the platform, he can be able to convince them to broadcast the event of the Chavez event.

Therefore, throwing a contract with Netflix or a fight at Combat Sports Network UFC Fight Pass as part of the subscription package can save Canelo vs Crawford from another PPV growth.

Shakur Stevenson Challenges Devin Haney to Step Up Against KO Champion: You Have No Other Option

"Shakur Stevenson Challenges Devin Haney to Step Up Against KO Champion: 'You Have No Other Option'"

Devin Haney is currently searching for his next opponent and Shakur Stevenson believes there is only one option for him.

Haney hasn’t fought since becoming a three-division world champion when he defeated Brian Norman Jr by unanimous decision to win the WBO welterweight title back in November.

He has been rumoured to face a number of opponents since then, including Stevenson himself, but it looked like ‘The Dream’ would finally settle on a mandatory showdown with Keyshawn Davis after Top Rank won the purse bid for the clash last week.

Those plans went up in smoke when Davis pulled out of the contest, and Stevenson has explained why he thinks Haney now must target a battle against unified super-welterweight champion Jaron Ennis.

“You said you’d fight Conor Benn? You said you’d find Xander. Why the f**k you don’t say you want to fight Boots now? Matter of fact, you’ve got no other option.

“There’s nobody else on the table. There’s no me, there’s no Key[shawn Davis]there’s no Rolly. Who do you go to? Boots is free. Go get him.”

Ennis previously became unified champion at welterweight before moving up to 154lbs, making an instant impact in the new division when he stopped Xander Zayas in June to win the WBA and WBO super-welterweight titles.

It remains to be seen whether Haney would have any interest in moving up in weight to take on Ennis, with ‘Boots’ also having been linked to fights against IBF champion Josh Kelly, and fellow unbeaten star Vergil Ortiz.

New World Champion Aims to Follow Canelo and Golovkin as Top Middleweight

"New World Champion Aims to Follow Canelo and Golovkin as Top Middleweight"

A newly-crowned world champion believes he has what it takes to follow in the footsteps of Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin by becoming the best middleweight fighter on the planet.

Canelo and Golovkin each ruled the 160lb division for a number of years, culminating in two middleweight battles between the pair and one at super-middleweight.

While ‘GGG’ may have last competed in 2022, Canelo remains active, but now fights at super-middleweight, opening the door for a fighter to step up and become the top dog in the middleweight division.

One man who believes he can do just that is Aaron McKenna, who won the vacant IBF middleweight title with a unanimous decision win over Etinosa Oliha in Dublin on Saturday.

Speaking to Sky Sports following that win, McKenna explained how he has ambitions to pick up where the likes of Canelo and Golovkin left off.

“It doesn’t matter [who’s next]whoever wants it. I’m easy to find now, I have a belt. There’s no hiding any more. I want to collect every single belt in boxing. I’m the best middleweight and super-middleweight in the world. I don’t mind jumping up.

“The middleweight division’s there to be took over. It’s been dying for years since GGG (Golovkin) and Canelo left it. I said it again, a year ago, I think I’m going to be the man to take it over.”

The other world champions at 160lbs may have a thing or two to say about McKenna’s plan, as Denzel Bentley is the current WBO champion, Carlos Adamas holds the WBC belt, and Erislandy Lara is the WBA titleholder.
