Just having a think of what could be on the undercard. Prety slim pickings to be fair! Brook v a half decent 154lber? Quigg against a bum Crolla against a bum Connor Benn against anybody ranked 200 and below Bellew wont fill cards anymore, Smith is waiting for the final, Yafai has just fought, Burnett is entering the WBSS. Gonna be a stacked card!
Stop winging and acting like a three year old. Chisora vs Takam and Fielding vs De gale/Zeague already been mooted. Hearns aint stupid, this card needs to be 'stacked' with 5/6 more championship fights. On a undercard, be realistic who is Brook gonna fight? Fact is Brook vs top 10 light middle would need to be PPV in UK to work and brook charlo/hurd doesnt really sell imo. Id like too see Brook vs Williams
Why on Earth would Brook against a top 10 154 need to be PPV!? It's this attitude that means people like Whyte can headline a PPV in what isn't even a world title fight.
I was thinking this yesterday. The timing of the event means a lot of the go to guys aren't going to be available. He promised a world title fight I believe, which you can bet your bottom dollar with be Taylor. Olympians will get a run out, maybe some in a slight step up. Benn will of course be on there. He'll have something planned I'm sure
Not whinging i was starting a thread for discussion. Why are you so quick on the defensive and to throw insults? Cant see Degale fighting on such short notice to be honest i don't think Degale has it in him to fight more than twice a year now nevermind twice in 3 months.
Ye thats what i was thinking. Isnt the wbc available? Also johnson v beterbiev. Also a euro sfw. Tennyson v bowen. Its what money is going to be available though after paying out 2 heavyweights.
Seems odd how its all been put together, what are we 7 weeks out? cant see him getting any good opponents for his fighters on that type of notice, but i guess this date has been known for a while.
Not sure the Not sure the date has been known for a while. Hearn said on ifl yesterday tbat the idea had been put to higgins recently. I do suppose its how u would interpret 'recently'
nah, Garcia still has it, having a unification with Easter. Well all i know is Dave Higgins was saying in an iFL interview that he wa disgusted at the amout Hearn spent on the undercard (as in he spent a lot)
I'd be happy enough with something like this: Whyte vs Parker Campbell vs Mendy II Chisora vs Takam Fielding vs Zeuge Stephen Smith vs Tennyson Benn vs Penauld II
