    CBS is from my hometown so I have a soft spot for him. Wonder what this means for him though? Opetaia? Boxxer broke?

    The pay probably wasn't great. All belt holders are currently busy, so I don't think he will fight for a title anytime soon.

    Kind of random that Okolie and Adeleye are fighting different opponents on the same date just after the Chisora and Itauma date.

    Are they looking at getting in some easy stay busy/rebuild fights?

    First fight since Parker? Did the writer forget that Bakole fought Ajagba last time?

    It's in Saudi ... so it could be anyone from anywhere. He better be in shape and trained up or he's going to lose Saudi fight privileges from then on probably. This is a bit of an all-in moment that can't be ****ed up by lazy half-commitment.

    Anyone - please nominate the opponent you'd pick for him.

    If they could lock in Miller, that'd be better for him than any of the other 3-4 huge HWs, that'd give him a hard night with damage along the way.

    Itauma if he blasts whoever he fights in December in less than 3 rounds.

    Hughie Fury to fight Webster in Rotterdam in November.

    Another opponent ruled out for Itauma.

    Mike Tyson fighting month on month set him up as a global phenomenon. I remember it. Don't think Ituama is Mike though. ;)
