Will TKO Boxing be the Death of the UFC?

TKO Boxing has arrived and it comes at a risk to the UFC. Headed up by UFC President Dana White, TKO Boxing will kick off with a huge fight from Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium on September 12th. Taking to the ring will be the legendary Canelo Alvarez, taking on the undefeated Terence Crawford for the undisputed super middleweight title.

This marks a huge shift from TKO Boxing as it signifies that they mean business. We knew it was coming, but we maybe didn’t expect an event this big to kick things off. As per The Ring Magazine‘s website:

‘Alalshikh and White unveiled plans for TKO’s boxing venture last month in New York.
