While he saw Callum Walsh scoring a knockout of the first round in New York City last month, White was asked about his plan to 'fix' boxing-in particular something else to make TKO boxing succeed.

“Ah, where do you start? Probably, you know, the best fighting best. I would start there,” he replied.

“Listen, my model is very different, Turki has things that he has mandatory in the next 18 months …
