    Vano/Mandana I agree 100% with what you are saying and personally I'd love to have some Ortiz fights on but the simple fact is the boxing fans know both fighters already. The casual fans will know the names Mayweather, De La Hoya and Hatton etc which makes them far more likely to decide to watch the free fights. The casual fan is far less interested in scouting the opposition etc, they just want to know it's a big name fighter and a few decent names on the undercard. By using Mayweather in the mentioned fights we will get a lot more casual viewers tuning in which is the point of using the free fights.

    I did ask about the Berto fight but we weren't able to get the rights in time to use that one

    Will it really start as late as 5?

    Alvarez should have Gomez out of there pretty quick.

    I've got work at 10 :dead

    I really can't say, it's down to Khan Promotions whether they want to release the figures. It was very similar to Khan vs McCloskey though.
