    With Usyk injuring his bicep, I think Eddie should still keep his Maryland show and make a main event of the evening a fight between Michael Hunter and Carlos Takam. I think it will be a great fight, especially since both of these guys were training hard and will be ready for May 25.

    That would make a lot of sense. Unfortunately, this is boxing, so there is no way that is going to happen.

    Hunter would maul Takam, Hunter is too talented for Takam. And Im not just saying this to make Usyk look good because Hunter lost to Usyk.

    :D

    Hunter v Takam is a boxing fans' fight.

    Make it happen, Eddie.

    Good call , keep the showing going and it gets Hunter some US soil fighting attention . Will only add to both their resumes and a difficult one to call it would be a 50/50 . Shame Usyk got injured but that is boxing for you .

    This fight came to mind as soon as I heard Usyk was injured. Hope it happens.
