From the golden era of Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson to recent years where the sport struggled to maintain its widespread appeal. Boxing hasn&rsquo;t seen a massive growth for quite some time now.<\/p><p>Meanwhile, UFC grew from an underground phenomenon to a global powerhouse. This was largely thanks to Dana White&rsquo;s aggressive marketing and willingness to make the fights fans actually wanted to see. Now, these two worlds are colliding in what might be the biggest shake-up in combat sports in years.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/jon-jones-legacy-in-question-as-tom-aspinall-prepares-for-another-possible-opponent\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Jon Jones&rsquo; Legacy In Question As Tom Aspinall Prepares For Another Possible Opponent!<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dana White And Turki Alalshikh Combine Forces<\/h2><p>In a move that has fans excited Dana White and Saudi Arabia&rsquo;s Turki Alalshikh have announced a groundbreaking partnership to create a new boxing league. The multi-year deal between Alalshikh and TKO Group Holdings will bring together the promotional expertise of the UFC CEO and WWE President Nick Khan to revitalize the boxing landscape. Alalshikh didn&rsquo;t mince words when handing over the reins.<\/p><blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong><em>&ldquo;I am very happy today.

It will leverage White&rsquo;s proven track record of turning fighting into big business.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Dana White&rsquo;s Vision Of This League?<\/h2><p>White&rsquo;s vision for the new league sounds refreshingly straightforward.
