    Uncle Al had this fight pushed back to April so that the Benavidez vs Plant PPV fight gets all the attention in March.

    Well... I know what I'd be targeting if I were a boxer, and I have a feeling he will too.

    Jesus! We may see Vergil Ortiz literally disembowel Stanionis.:eek: :lol:

    Think Stan is making a mistake coming back so soon after having an appendectomy. That's like just over 8 weeks away from now and I think he had the surgery on the 6th of this month. Should you really be starting a camp just three weeks after surgery? Hopefully he's 100% recovered because I'm really looking forward to this one as it has all the makings of a FOTY contender.

    DAZN have a pretty great schedule so far. April looks amazing. Hopefully it doesn’t get cancelled again.

    Yeah, that's crazy, you gotta wonder about his management team, taking this fight now.

    Wait a minute Stan has the head billing? I thought it would have been Ortiz vs Stanionis.. Hmmm

    It might be different if it was a noncombat sport but even if it was you'd assume it would still be advisable to wait longer

    is this considered a duck of crawford then? ortiz is number 1 in the WBO. Why doesnt he invoke the mandatory?
