The man in charge is Amer Abdallah, a self-described global boxing advisor who will serve in that role exclusively for Jordan and the ERB. Abdallah has worked with U.S.-based fighters such as Badou Jack and Nico Ali Walsh, and helped launch the UAE’s first-ever pro boxing and kickboxing event in 2019. He has worked on boxing projects with Saudi Arabia, Libya, Bahrain and other countries in the Middle East. The premise is simple: Jordan has had success in amateur boxing, without a fighter making it as a marquee pro. With Abdallah’s input, the ERB seeks to grow and develop talent from the region.
