MTK Global attempt to clarify relationship with mob boss Daniel Kinahan

Since 2017 boxing promoter Mack the Knife (MTK) Global has tried to distance itself from one of it’s founders; Daniel Kinahan, who Irish courts name as the leader of a $1 billion drug and arms trafficking cartel. However, questions have lingered over just how involved the mob boss is with what is now one of the most powerful companies in boxing. This month one of the most well known figures in the sport revealed how close Kinahan remains to MTK. Since then MTK have tried to control the conversation around their affiliation with Kinahan, while Kinahan himself seems to have embedded himself further into both boxing and the world of MMA.
