YouTuber Rumbles in Riyadh? Turki Al-Sheikh Weighs In

Turki Al-Sheikh, the bigwig of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority, has thrown a punchline about funding YouTuber brawls in the state. Al Al-Sheik jabbed back when quizzed about rolling out the red carpet for pugilists like KSI.

"YouTuber throwdowns? Not in my ring. I'm not singling out any names here. I'm scouting for real scrappers. They're the ones I'm backing up.

Perhaps another corner in the General Entertainment Authority might cook up something to tickle the fans' fancy, sure thing.

But as for me? I'm all about the fighters," Al-Sheikh stated, keeping his gloves up.
