According to reports, BOXING promotions company MTK Global was sanctioned after Daniel Kinahan, a former co-founder of the mob, was arrested.
Recently, the US Government named Tyson Fury's former advisor as the head the Kinahan Cartel.

The Cartel was accused in the sourcing and sale of "large quantities" of cocaine from South America.
MTK Global, which currently cares for 200 fighters, has announced that they have stopped operating.
The statement stated: "As an entity, we have faced unprecedented levels in unfair scrutiny and criticism ever since the sanctioning of the US Government by Daniel Joseph Kinahan.
"It is public record that Mr Kinahan has ceased to be involved in MTK in 2017. Despite repeated assurances, there are still unfounded allegations regarding his continued association with us and our fighters.

"Leading promoters have informed us that they will be cutting all ties to MTK and will not work with our fighters. We have made the difficult decision to stop operations at the end this month.
"MTK thrived because we always placed the long-term interests of our fighters at heart of what we did.
"Our priority will be to support our world-class boxers to find new partnerships as quickly as possible in the coming weeks.
"MTK gyms operate independently and will continue to be open in the future.
"Further announcements are being made in due time. We are grateful to all our fans for their support over the past decade.
The business was founded by Kinahan (44), an Irishman. He is accused of having severed ties with the company in 2017.
Bob Arum, Fury's US promoter, claimed last week that Kinahan - who is not convicted of any criminal offenses - was still "100%" involved in MTK Global's running.
Arum claimed that he paid Kinahan, whom Fury publicly thanked to broker a 2-fight deal with Anthony Joshua. Arum paid close to PS3million for four fights between 2019-2021 before the US sanction was imposed on Kinahan.
Due to US Government pressure, CEO Bob Yalen resigned Tuesday.
MTK Global was not the first to be under such intense scrutiny.
After Kinahan was named by the Irish High Court as the head of the Kinahan Cartel, the business was already probed.
Fury claimed that he has nothing to hide about his relationship with Kinahan.
Fury claims that despite being still listed on MTK Global’s website, he has had nothing to do whatsoever with the promotions company since 2020.
"NOTHING TO DISTURB"
The 32-year-old Gypsy King was photographed in Dubai with the now-sanctioned Irishman, in February. He insists that "Because my picture was taken with a man, it doesn't mean I am a criminal."
"I am just a boxer. This building could have a criminal.
"I have nothing to hide. Only once have I ever violated the law was when I received a speeding ticket.
Fury answered a question about drug accusations levelled against the Kinahans: "That's not my business, and I don't interfere in any other's business."
"But I know what the media can accomplish. "Remember, I was the one who was witch-hunted just a few years ago.
"I've got enough problems to worry about right now.
"Like a large lump of a man who wants to punch me in my face on Saturday.

"Like my wife preferring that rather than being in training camp, I was at home helping with our six children and taking out the trash bins. Which is what I'll return to doing on Sunday morning after the fight."
Fury stated that their professional relationship was "only lasted between 2017 and 2020." There has been no change since then. Nada."
