    The flagship fight in boxing is the world heavyweight championship fight so Dubois vs Parker being an undercard fight is very disrespectful.

    If Turki wants the Beterbiev vs Bivol fight as main event then the heavyweight title fight should be on a separate card.

    Turki seems to have a messiah complex thinking he needs to come into the sport and touch everything but clearly he has some learning to do.

    Never again should the world heavyweight title fight not be main event ever again.

    Heavyweight can never not be main event so undisputed at a lower weight can be a main event on its own card. Both fights should headline separate cards.

    Normally I'd agree HW title should be main event - even if for one belt, but this isn't just for the undisputed LHW title, it is a fight between two top 5 P4P's in boxing. That is more than worthy of the top billing.

    Beterbiev v Bivol is the more important fight.

    Yes, Usyk is the main champ, Beterbiev and Bivol are rated far higher than Dubois P4P.

    On the whole Turki has been good but he has a lot to learn still

    Dubois would batter both of them he actually comes to take guys heads off like Tyson used to so he needs his own main events

    He`s beating the pants off every other promoter and has Warren and Hearn working for him.

    A fight for undisputed between two ATG light heavies outweighs a HW bout for an alphabet belt currently held by a man who doesn’t even hold the lineage of that belt (no hate on Dubois, but Usyk holds the IBF lineage).

    This isn’t even close.

    I don`t think you watch much boxing, Dubois is a heavyweight why would you compare him to light heavies?

    I’m not saying the undisputed fight shouldn’t be a main but they should both be mains on a separate card
