Khan Backs Dana White’s Plans to Expand Boxing Promotion

Former world champion Amir Khan believes that UFC and TKO head Dana White can have a positive impact on boxing.

“Boxing needs a man like Dana White, who will change this sport, make it more exciting, and increase attendance.

With Turki involved, the best fight the best. In this game now there are no easy paths. If you say you’re a champion, prove it by fighting the top guys. No more hiding games in this sport,” Khan said.

Earlier, White stated that Zuffa Boxing will not recognize any sanctioning bodies such as the WBO, WBC, WBA, or IBF. The only alternative belt to their own will be The Ring title.
