TKO would be the producer, the promoter and responsible for all day-to-day operations of the venture, where by we would receive a fee of $10 million plus," said Shapiro said during the call.

"Again, we’re not putting any money in, we’re not putting any capital in, we’re not on the hook for any [of the costs]."

Despite not putting capital in, TKO Group "would have some earn-in equity per time, specifically over a five-year period, but it would be dependent on us achieving certain milestones, including us exceeding board-approved annual budgets over that five years."

No big name fighters will be signed but big names will be used in 4 Super fights per year using big stars and stars we create.
