- Expunging News going into the "allegedly" record setting fight between Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte at Wembley less than 2 weeks away.
https://fightnews.com/top-rank-split...obellum/130608
Amazing how quickly a dubious consortium can be patched together to take over boxing as Haymon and MTK have shown, yet here by news release, could MTK be unraveling in their own "homecoming?"
No matter, Fury fighting AJ leftovers in his ignominious ducal return to England....priceless

So it seems that Top Rank have cut ties with Probellum and MTK Global.
Even though MTK Global are technically a separate company from Probellum, they were involved in its creation and they also have a partnership to stage events. And Daniel Kinahan has been involved with both business entities.
Daniel Kinahan was also employed as an advisor for Top Rank. And has also worked closely with Queensberry Promotions.
Tyson Fury is managed by MTK Global, which was founded by Daniel Kinahan, who was recently in charge of contract negotiations for the Anthony Joshua bout.
Tyson Fury’s contract with Top Rank and ESPN expires after the completion of the Dillian Whyte fight.
He also signed his deal with Queensberry Promotions and BT four years ago.
The precise terms of those deals haven’t been disclosed, but contracts of that nature rarely last more than four years. So I’m guessing they’ll expire after the Dillian Whyte bout.
It’s an interesting situation that might lead to Tyson Fury cutting ties with MTK Global to become a promotional free agent that is also self-managed.
In terms of Daniel Kinahan, he’s been involved with lots of boxing businesses and fighters simultaneously for a very long time. And if he really is corrupt, then it suggests some of those companies might have been too.

Are you a bit skeptical, then?
