    ...to be cancelled two weeks after.

    But seriously, good fight if it comes off.

    Haven't we seen this dance and show before? I thought Opetaia fulfilled his defense obligations against Nyika who was apparently the highest ranked with the IBF they could get on short notice.

    A pity because I would have liked to see the Opetaia vs Billam-Smith fight a lot more.

    He should just move to heavy. This cruiserweight unification isn't happening anytime soon by the looks of it

    David Surov vs Alexander Dorofeev in the Final of Russian National Championships.

    Dorofeev is 8-0 as a pro.

    The older Surov brother against veteran Doronichev in the 92kg division.
    The Surov’s are Klitschkoesque in that Teimuraz competed in WAKO Kick-boxing like Vitali.

    October 11, Alexis Barriere 12 00 vs Guido Vianello 13 3 1 in Philli

    Could be a good one.

    Also Joey Dawejko back Dec 6. Boxing needs good journeymen like Joey.

    Also Makabu back in December in Kinshasa

    Dawejko bottled it last time out against a MMA journeyman in BKB. He’s not as tough as he once was.

    Dychko needs to have a fight of this quality every two months for a year.

    Just saw American cruiserweight prospect Dominic Barry improve to 8-0-1 (8) on a random Mexican undercard.

    31 years old and hasn't faced any live bodies yet, but only debuted last year - has a convincing physique, works the body well, and has a mean uppercut and good finishing instinct.
