Rahul Suri, who is both the co-founder of CFN and the founder of Savy Promotions, comments, “My partners and I are excited by the interest CFN has generated and the enthusiasm of the crypto community as well as the boxing world in the event, so we have decided to run the event twice this year in UAE. We expect more than 1000 visitors to fly to Dubai in April – fighters, sponsors, partners, and audience members who come here specially for the crossover boxing championships. The attention of the world will be riveted to the spectacular La Perle Dragone Theatre on Fight Night.” Rahul’s co-founders are Jai Vora, Rookie XBT, Raghav Jerath, and Mohd Abu Salah. International sponsors in 2024 include Ghaf Capital, BYBIT, Verse Estate and Hydro.
“Supporting local boxers and offering them an international stage is what CFN brings to the table for grassroots boxing in UAE.” He added.
The 2024 event will be staged in the fully immersive setting of La Perle Dragone Theatre. As every surface becomes a screen with projections on the walls, floors and giant panorama, the audience will get an unparalleled viewing experience. Every punch, dodge, and knockout is witnessed from multiple angles, capturing the raw emotion and the intensity of each moment.
The event has sold out every year. Tickets will go on sale at Platinumlist.net in the coming week. In 2023, attendance in the fully booked auditorium was boosted by live streaming across the world and engaging with over 20 million people on social media during fight week.
