    Bantamweight may be one of the best divisions, but it isn't the most valuable. to see these "unknown" fighters getting massive (and deserved) paydays for taking on the best is brilliant, its refreshing to see promoters take a gamble on the lower division and long may it continue

    its bantamweight & Super-lightweight so far, but im sure I heard Kalle say they might do 3. The 140's so far are Prograis, Relikh, Troya, Baranchyk, and Yigit

    As I understand it LHW is gone. Not enough money in the pot.

    I doubt 'not enough money in the pot' is the true reason. Heck look at 140 lbs.

    But the higher the weight the bigger the egos. Hard to find 8 top names not affiliated with Haymon at LHW . You can forget Jack, Adonis, Alvarez, Browne and Beterbiev entering this tournament.

    I suspect that with the right money Haymon might let his fighters enter, especially Beterbiev who is stuck ... lately he's made up with Arum so anything could happen IMHO.
