    I don't want any substitute, just fight at a different time if it those two can't fight. We need to know who the best is. Briedis ain't beating any of em.

    That’s fair enough. But obviously we’d need to then see Usyk-Gassiev after that.

    Wonder if they’ll do the same with my boy Eubank Jr. Get him on the undercard.

    Lets just hope both USYK and Gassiev are healthy with no problems going into their finals match. That's a huge fight for boxing and history for the CW division, it would be a shame if we had to wait even longer for them to mix it up.

    Neither do I want a substitute. But if Usyk was out for four months by injury, I'd say you can't do better than Gassiev vs Briedis.

    In any case, having Briedis as the co-feature should be fun, rumour is it will be versus Vlasov which is a good fight.

    Because there's less as 2 months until the final takes place.
    Creating and promoting another show inbetween with very decent purses for the two inside a month, with a good chance neither guy would be fit for the reserve position at may 11.
    Not very smart business.

    They shouldn't have reserves because it the reserve wins it and shouldn't have been in the fina itl turns into a mess
