    Will likely end up in July so only a few weeks before a Fury Zhang and Usyk Dubois PPV - wouldn't help the numbers. Hopefully the postponement is only for a few weeks like they said here.

    Why are they still perpetuating this myth that Smith winning was an ‘upset’?

    Hopefully it gets cancelled indefinitely. We don’t need a rerun of this bout

    When are they gonna start being fined for postponing fights?

    In the 80s they always fought injured

    Bad aint it.
    Tommy Fury has probably cancelled fights becaus he cannot get an appointment to get his eyebrows done on time!!

    If you really expect that Fury PPV to come off, your very optimistic

    Not sure about Fury, but I’m starting to struggle to believe that Usyk will be fighting Dubois so close to December if this Saudi thing is real. We need some answers soon otherwise the summer schedule is going to go to crap for all 3 of the big promoters as I can see AJ sitting it out till December aswell

    It is amazing how Coppinger still has the balls to post or still has a job. He nominated Daniel Kinahan for promoter/cartel leader of the year. If anyone needed cancelling, it's this turd.

    Fighters can't really win then can they ?

    Darren Barker went in the ring injured in his last fight and got slated for it.

    Smith also had a bad cut in camp before Canelo so could barely spar in the lead up to it and still took the fight. He's probably learned a good lesson there.

    Swings and roundabouts

    I hope they have a main event with Mark Heffron vs Chelli or give the rights to QP

    New date July 1. Will clash with Matchroom's Sheffield show. I'd rather watch the show on DAZN to be honest and not buy the PPV. The tickets for the rematch have sold a lot quicker than the first one. Probably will be close to a sellout.

    Ben The Bellend Whitaker confirmed for the undercard

    Hopefully he's given Naz his leopard print knickers back.

    So? This isn’t the boxing promoters/business forum. Why do people care about how much money other people are making from fights that shouldn’t be PPV anyway. Not being funny, just saying. Hear far much of this talk these days and I don’t get it.

    Hope it falls through anyway. Eubank doesn’t deserve it.
