    Also Makhmudov vs Kabayel, Hrgovic vs De Mori, Sanchez vs Fa, and Dubois vs Miller.

    This is a nice Christmas gift for boxing fans.

    Makes sense to me

    Good fights.... and Parker Wilder is dangerous for Wilder to come unstuck.

    I expect AJ to look bad as always against Wallin then put his lights out which to be honest same might happen with Wilder Parker. Both trailing fighting like the mental midgets they are then BAM right in the kisser.

    Parker & Wallin both do well if they come to win and don't treat Wilder & AJ like killers who can chin them at any moment.

    Who gets the main event? Surely Wilder Parker. Can you imagine AJ & Hearn taking 2nd fiddle?

    Another opponent for Wilder to showcase that touch of death because Parker does not go down easy.

    Not bad at all, although Rivera is undeserving of a title shot. I'd also love to see the Joshua-Wallin winner take on the Wilder-Parker victor.

    Good fights if it’s actually confirmed. I feel like all these Saudi announcements are just a bunch of empty promises though.

    Wilder & AJ haven't stalled all year for fun. The Saudi's are in talks just a case of whether they can get anything together. It would need to be announced next week, very short on time. This is also pre-empting Wilder vs AJ but they aren't going to sign a contract so soon like Usyk Fury did.

    Think the Saudi's will want a fight contract before they host both of them on 23rd Dec.

    Wilder & AJ need to smell the bacon though because nobody has money but the Saudi's right now.

    It has to be a good card because its PPV on top of your existing Dazn subscription. AJ isn't the huge box office draw anymore. Inability to pull the trigger and boring performances. The card will have to be stacked to get good PPV numbers

    As long as it isn't ppv this is a good card.

    Otherwise you're paying for three fights that don't feature the champion of that those divisions.

    AJ won't get anywhere near Wallin.

    AJ vs Wallin? I think Joshua targets the IBF title. Take out the number 2 guy, and fight for the vacant title next year.

    In the Croatian media, Hrgovic is mentioned as Joshua's most likely opponent, it was to be expected that he will be on hold again and Wallin will get a chance...

    I mean I will watch Wilder vs Parker and AJ vs Wallin? Just imagine Hearn's face if AJ loses.... If Wallin gonna be on vs Gassiev level. I think this is gonna be tough matchup for AJ...

    Wilder vs Parker...damn. I love both fighters but I will pick Wilder on this!

    What? I don't believe it. Not a single MMA guy making his boxing debut? I'll pass.

    AJ vs Wallin on paper should be a straightforward AJ win, but Wallin won't take it lying down - should be a good fight.

    Wilder vs Parker is also a good fight - wouldn't be at all surprised if it's Parker on points. Parker's got one of the best chins in the division and Wilder, for all the reputation, has never actually knocked out anyone with a serious chin - I'd have to respect his power a lot more if he can manage it... And as much as I'm not impressed by Wilder's durability I don't particularly rate Parker's power - so I think this goes the distance.
