KHK Sports and MTK Global are delighted to announce a groundbreaking boxing summit that will be held in Bahrain late this year.
The pioneering conference will see industry leaders unite in a desire to take the sport of boxing to the next level.
The event will allow influential figures from all sides of the boxing world to sit down and discuss collaborating on projects that will benefit everybody.
The historic meeting is a unique opportunity for leaders to pledge their support and help shape the future of the sport for years to come.
KHK and MTK are proud to add that following the summit the Kingdom of Bahrain will host its first ever world title contest, broadcast live to the US, UK and around the world.
Both the summit and the world title bout are confirmation that KHK and MTK remain committed to the continued growth of Bahrain as a world-renowned international sporting hub and that, with KHK and MTK’s support, the entire Middle Eastern region is open for major combat sports’ events.
“For years, the thought of getting all the world leaders in boxing into one room together would have been dismissed as fantasy. But the major players see the potential for growth within our industry and understand that the sky is the limit when different parties co-operate and collaborate,” said Daniel Kinahan, special advisor to KHK Sports. “This truly groundbreaking event will capture the attention of boxing fans across the world and have a generational impact on our sport.”
On his part, MTK Global President Bob Yalen said: “This is a massive step in the right direction for the world of boxing and MTK are thrilled to play our role in assisting His Highness Shaikh Khalid bin Hamad Al Khalifa and the team at KHK Sports in making this a reality.”
