    Quick update on the bantamweight competition:

    Steven Smith is set to face Jason Sosa and Jamie McDonnell will face Liborio Solis on November 24 card in Monte Carlo, so that leaves out these four names out of the competition.

    Confirmed boxers:Zolani Tete, Emanuel Roudriguez, Ryan Burnett, Mark Antonio Yap and Naoya Inoue if he beats Jamie McDonnell.

    P.S. These 4 fighters are minor losses apart from Jamie McDonnel.

    Inoue will beat McDonnell IMO, so that's an excellent field:

    Inoue
    Tete
    Burnett
    Rodriguez
    Yap

    Ramirez didn't fight Prograis and didn't enter tournament because they have the same promoter.

    Zepeda's entrance is a possibility.
    Repeat of cruiserweight is a outside possibility.

    Do you think Usyk will pull out due to the fight being in Russia?

    :lol: What? I get him vacating due to the money but now hes fighting for it again?

    Those are some ridiculous terms.
    And that 3% doesn't even cover the officials.
