Comments Thread For: Turki Alalshikh Wants Devin Haney, Gervonta Davis To Fight in Saudi Arabia in 2024

If there is one thing Haymon is great at it's convincing his fighters they are better off saying no to big paydays so they can stay fighting on ****ty PBC cards in America because that's somehow "more prestigious"

Look forward to this fight happening in about 10 years time when both are past it, in Vegas with a bunch of feather fisted bums going 12 rounds on the undercard and commercials every 30 seconds for fast food, joining the marines, and some American healthcare scam.

I'm not so sure about that.

Okay you don't need to be but it's true, I remember him posting a picture like 8 years ago in a mosque in Dubai and he got a load of stick for it.

E.G. “Jesus Christ, that’s an unfollow from me and all if you follow that backwards religion! Good day.”
“Hope Klitchko batters your now.”
“Disappointed, won’t be watching you fight anymore.”

So on and so forth, one guy even went as far as to ask the Prime minister to deport him for it...

its more lucrative for haymon himself if his guys stay on pbc...but besides that definitely not for the fighter. he got wilder good with his trickery but wilder doesnt seem too hard to deceive, then again either does tank. another reason the fight wont happen is tank seems especially scared of fighting good fighters, where wilder i think was genuinely tricked.

Let's hope it's true...Bob Arum also recently said that he'd like to match Tank against any of the fighter's in his stable i.e. Haney, Teofimo + Shakur which is music to my ears!

Haney is not in Bob Arum’s stable.

A Brit calling someone feather fisted. Boy that's rich!

I don't think they care all that much either but it is a coincidence that AJ is ******, Beterbiev is and both Haney and Tank would be.

And as me and you have discussed before their possible involvement with the Kinahans might be why they're more accepting of Fury as the non-****** "main event" and his major involvement with their current outfit via Goldstar, hence his rétarded comments about AJ working for him.

I definitely think the Kinahans are out of play here. If I'm wrong & they are still involved somehow they are minor players now best case. Saudis got money the Kinahans dream of having. And the reports are they scattered to Iran &/or Russia since the sh^t hit the fan with the US government. But yea there could be different money laundering ppl involved here, but til I hear more concrete evidence I'm gonna assume this is a sports washing thing more than a money laundering thing.

Randomly there is a good podcast about the Kinahans that just came out recently. It's called Hot Money: The New Narcos. Worth a listen if you are into this subject.

I saw that pic and thought he might be ****** too but when I looked it up all I could find was a quote from him saying he's "not a ****** but he respects them" or something like that. I don't think a ****** would specifically say "I'm not a ******". That would seem a bit like disrespecting his religion.

You are correct. He expressed a general interest in spirituality rather than a conversion to Islam.

Yeah of course he's going to say that after all the flak he got, it's called toeing the party lines.

His parents are from a majority ****** country, you are ****** by birth, trust me he is despite what he says publically.

And depending on your interpretation of the Quran (al-Tawbah 9:28) he isn't allowed in a mosque at all without being a ******.

And lets not forget Dubai is still Sharia law for ******s and civil for everyone else, so there could be serious consequences for whoever let the "kafir" into their mosque.

It's not toeing the party lines for his ****** supporters! A quick Google search and I found him talking about drinking Guinness and having pork cutlets for dinner. Seems a bit of a stretch say he's ******.
