    You heard it here first !

    There's been a lot of speculation in the last few weeks but now it will be announced early next week, once the UFC fights are over after this coming weekend.

    I don't have a legit link for you unfortunately but you'll have to take my word for it.

    Apparently Chad Dawson accepted $600 000 to fight on the undercard and still be on HBO.

    Right before the Bute vs Pascal fight, HBO will show the Kessler vs Froch fight.

    Who you got ?

    What has Bute done to deserve a shot at Pascal?

    He sold all the tickets before they contacted Pascal.

    There is a legitimate possibility of seeing Sergey Kovalev against Dawson. It's a work in progress...

    :shock::shock:

    Huge risk for Dawson. No wonder Lampley and Kellerman were giving love to Kovalev on Saturday.

    Bot guys were told by their promoters to make around $2million for the 1st fight. The plan is to have a rematch and a 3rd one if possible.

    :shock:

    Nice cash out fight for both guys and if it's exciting, the rematch will be even better.

    What's the plan for the Dawson/Kovalev winner(if that fight happens)

    Have no idea about what's next for the winner if they can make Kovalev vs Dawson...

    This is just a personal opinion but if Dawson gets that fight and wins, Ward should move up and fight him for his belt at 175lbs this time. Ward does have plans for going further up eventually (higher than 175), so he may as well start with that.

    I think Bute will outbox Pascal and stop him late.

    Do you think the Pascal/Bute rematch would be written into the contract? An idea from HBO would be for the Pascal/Bute and Dawson/Kovalev winners to fight and that winner gets Ward in a megafight(probably Ward's first PPV)
