What will likely happen if they pull this off is that they will start with each of the top 15 of each weight class being a part of the league. But after putting on some super fights between those fighters they will then offer out contracts outside of the top 15 so they can climb the rankings. This is how the UFC currently does it as they have plenty of low ranked fighters that fight. With the UFC spending a lot less money than boxing and have been putting out fights with greater frequency ever since the Saudi’s got involved to make the process of making fights even sooner.

Here is my 2 cents. There is this super league with their own belts. Call it the TBL (Turki Boxing League) or what ever. When you win a belt you have to defend it with in 4 months. You can only fight for a TBL belt in a TBL fight, no other belts from other boxing associations can be on the line in a TBL fight. TBL fights are simple 80/20 split on the purse, 80 to winner & 20 to loser. Change the scoring system to stop draws. The TBL fighters are allowed to take other fights outside of the TBL but champions will be locked into that 4 month defend clause. Winning purses for TBL championship fights will be paid on the next TBL fight. This will stop a fighter scooping a big payday, the belt and never coming back to the TBL.
@BucephalusHume5 ай бұрын
One belt per division is just what makes sense. I don't see it being a problem in terms of people getting title shots. It just means the top contender fights will be much more interesting and 'visible'. By visible, I mean it'll be clear that top contender fights are worth watching because they are actually top contenders. Rather than having 80 top contenders spread across 4 organisations, we can have 20 under one. It'll make getting a title shot tougher, as it should be. But will make it much easy for fans to keep up with who's who in boxing and entice new fans to the sport. You could still have other belts for special occasions. Like the WBC diamond belt for matches between two legends who are semi-retired and something like the BMF belt from UFC which generally puts two really exciting competitors together.

Same goes for Michael Spinks when he beat Holmes. And so on. Upsets are what make the HW division particularly intriguing and this would be lost under a super league type of system.

@@zGJungle How do we know it won't be carried over, the people creating this would make lots of money if they did. Fighters were not under the same promotion in the past when no ducking occured, and that was because a loss meant so much less, as your ability was based off of what was seen in the ring, it is the fans fault and fighters who left undefeated due to avoiding which is the issue. UFC has protected fighters and ducking occuring all the time. Make it so there are less belts that's how you do it not just have a UFC style promotion 🤦♂️

@zGJungle they can be in the same promotion and still duck each other or get 'underserved' title shots, happens all the time in the UFC too....

The model is fantastic, they just need to pay better. It’s a simple fix!

@@ethnicalbert but why would they pay more this model is designed around paying less. What is fantastic nothing will change and without other major promotions things could get much worse

I am that friend who knows nothing about boxing, saw on KZbins the other day “Ben Whittaker in IBF International light heavyweight title” and I thought “bloody hell I thought he just did all that mucking about for Instagram but he’s in an International (world?) title fight? i need to see this!” Then all the comments are saying he’s going to come unstuck when he fights a British or European title fight. Totally confused. Fridge magnets indeed.

I'm against this for one reason Propa......by having this league it gates people, that's the beauty of boxing, a person can turn pro in any country and work their way up the ranks. Once this league starts you have to get 'in' before you can do anything. So it might make the best fights but from a limited league pool ......so how can it be the best fighting the best? Bosch!

As influential and with as deep of pockets as Turki has I don't see this coming to fruition.

I am a fan of the league idea, makes it more competitive and desriable.
