Turki Alalshikh, the prominent Saudi advisor and chairman of the General Entertainment Authority, gave an unexpected and generous reaction following Daniel Dubois’ recent achievement in the boxing world.

After Dubois made boxing history, Alalshikh revealed that he would be awarding the heavyweight fighter an additional bonus on top of the agreed amount for his performance, further celebrating his remarkable feat.

 

Dubois’ victory had already drawn global attention, but the extra bonus from Alalshikh signified just how significant the win was in the eyes of the Saudi boxing community and leadership.

The announcement came as a pleasant surprise, especially considering the already substantial financial rewards associated with the bout. Alalshikh, who has been instrumental in bringing major sports and entertainment events to Saudi Arabia, praised Dubois for his resilience and determination, acknowledging that his triumph had made a lasting impact on the sport.

 

This gesture by Alalshikh not only highlighted Dubois’ success but also demonstrated Saudi Arabia’s growing role as a major player in the international boxing scene. The country has been hosting high-profile boxing events in recent years, and this extra reward for Dubois is another sign of its commitment to supporting athletes and enhancing its status as a global sports destination.
