Dear Turki ,
I am currently available to function as a Riyadh Season Ambassador. The paltry sum of ten million is fair enough to ensure my enthusiastic participation.
All Praise Be To Allah , PNUT .

I am expecting they will want to see Inoue fight in Saudi Arabia - kind of like a famous display "look at me, look at what circus show I can get to come here". I think fight cards somewhere else in the world on Turki's money are dead and buried. Anyone who wants the big bucks will have to travel.

What's wrong with traveling. If you make good money at home, you don't need to travel but anyone else should jump at fighting there if the money is there.

Nothing wrong with traveling. Just saying that Turki will not spend money on shows in the UK or USA. It will be shows for the live entertainment of locals in Saudi Arabia.

Well it looks like The Turkiman keeps expanding his fighter harém, I dont think those 19m only to sponsor 'Riyah Season' on his fight gear... Oh I forgot, these are the saudis we talking about.

Blood stained money some say..

All money is for the most part lol Wherever it's big that is...jesus look at don king on a micro example. Boxing always had shady money, not exusing it, but let's not kid ourselves. Your gas purchases support the Saudis more than boxing revenues ever will.

Sheeeiiit is exhausting.

I think given his accomplishments, his status as maybe the world's best fighter, he legit warrants a 9 figure deal to associate with anybody. He needs to fire his agent, $19 million is peanuts against what other fighters are earning with that company.

I've wondered from the beginning about what kind of money Turki is paying fighters but haven't seen anything anywhere. What have you seen from a legitimate source about the Saudi pay ? Post a link if you don't mind , I'd really like to know. Thanks !
