    I understand there will be 3 World titles including the main event. 1 from the Al Haymon stable and the other from Top Rank.

    I suspect with such a big main event they will try to save money on the undercard. A lot of the Al Haymon big players are out in March/April which will rule them out

    I have heard Ishe Smith could be in one of the fights which is really underwhelming.

    I would love Khan v Marquez

    Brook vs JMM more chance of happening than Khan vs JMM

    Khan - Maidana 2 and Lomachenko - Walters would be awesome.

    Both fights would be more entertaining than the actual main event (just like Danny vs Lucas was on that Canelo card)

    Khan vs Algieri is more likely, Maidana is getting married in April and is looking at fighting Danny Garcia later in the year.

    Algeiri would be an absolute ideal fight for Khan, wouldnt say it would be put on that undercad though

    Its a fight i wouldn't look forward to and i also don't want it on this card, you need a puncher in with Khan for the drama.

    Algieiri is feather fisted and would lose every round and make Khan look spectacular. That is why i think the fight could be made.

    yeah I'm talking from a Amir Khan point of view, theyd hype it up to **** and hed have a massive audience and look savage. Its still a bit of a pointless fight though and dont know if either will really be pushed to get on. Depends what Haymon has in mind for Khan I suppose

    No way a Khan type fighter will be on the card-much too expensive.Floyd's greed will prevent that.Expect Top Ranks Lomachenko in a title defense and a lower level Haymon champion on the card.Only 3 fights on the telecast.

    I can't see them spending that much on an undercard to be honest- a decent 50/50 national level US fight would suffice.
