Stimulated by Arslanbek Makhmudov's other convincing performance on Saturday night at the Bell Center, boxing promoter Camille Estephan is offering $ 20 million to the American Deontay Wilder to come up against his protégé in Montreal in 2020.


"Arslanbek has sent a message and I am going to give Wilder $ 20 million to come to Montreal," said Estephan, Eye of the Tiger Management. In fact, to the winner between Wilder and [Tyson] Fury in February, I offered him $ 20 million to fight in Montreal against Arslanbek. "


The invitation is launched. Makhmudov, 30, defeated American Samuel Peter by KO. in the first round, Saturday. He thus signed a 10 th K.-O. in as many fights.

"I do not care who my next opponent is," Makhmudov said simply after his expeditious triumph. I would be ready to confront anyone. It's my job. I'm always going for the victory. "

Asked if he cared what the world could think of his impressive performance, the colossus was very sure of his means.

"I have nothing to do with what the world thinks," he said. I know what I can do, I know myself. My attention is on the championships, that's all. I do not pay attention to anyone, it's not my job. My job is to box. "

"It will be at the Bell Center at full capacity," said Estephan, about this potential world championship fight he imagines for Makhmudov.

The duel between Wilder (42-0-1, 41 K.-O.) and Fury (29-0-1, 20 K.-O.) is planned precisely on February 22 in Las Vegas and will put at stake the World Heavyweight Title of the WBC. Wilder is the current champion.

Jesus Christ what the **** was that?

As far as the match goes, it was crazy, but far from a fight of the year, too damn sloppy for that. The layoff for Lemieux, coupled with the fact that he'd never fought that high, was caught cold, and that he got nailed in his damned glass ears again. That threw him off for the entire fight. But he must be applauded, he showed tremendous grit to survive this one. Bursak showed a tremendous chin and immense heart as well. I have no idea how either of them made it to the final bell. As far as the score goes, Bursak winning by a point is fine as well. All scores I this SD are justifiable.

You should all watch it, it's a hell of a lot of fun.
