2 months agoZuffa Boxing says it will save the sport but the fine print shows that fighters might pay the price
Now the Saudis have turned to TKO Group Holdings and Dana White to oversee Zuffa Boxing a newly created vehicle designed to expand the footprint of its equity partners in the United States.
