    This has been set and GBP are set to announce it. Surprisingly, it's in America, which I didn't expect and is probably on HBO.

    We can expect Khan to be fighting on the same date but in the UK.

    What's your thoughts?

    Well Barrera vs Morales Trilogy was in America as well...not shocked by that. The Mexican's travel to see there guys fight. Plus it suits HBO i suppose...

    This is going to be on PPV probably, HBO won't pay for it.

    Don't want to see this (but I do :huh), Erik is done.

    Absolutely shocking fight, lost a lot of respect for Marquez for taking this.

    There's an easier fight, then there's taking on a guy who is beyond finished.

    Morales has being the one calling for it. And part of the reason they both want it is because it's the only fight out of the 'new fab four' of Pac/MAB/JMM/EM that didn't happen.

    But yeah, it's ****. Morales could get hurt here.

    Morales is probably my favourite fighter of all-time, so I'm just a bit pissed off at this to be honest, seriously worry for him in this fight.

    Ugh, horrible fight. Morales shouldn't be mixing in this company any longer.
