    There will be 3 purse bids today and tomorrow:

    - Opetaia vs Riakporhe
    - Wardley vs Adeleye
    - Foster vs Hernandez

    Will be interesting to see where the first 2 end up. My bet is that Opetaia vs Riakporhe will be won by Matchroom and end up in Australia, Queensberry win Wardley vs Adeleye since they need a big show for the end of the year, and Foster vs Hernandez is won by PBC.

    Second instance of Boxxer and a fighter pulling out on the day of the purse bid after Fraser Clarke.

    That's why that statement is utter BS.

    It's no coincidence that Boxxer pull out of purse bids on the day of the bids twice.

    In his statement he says "it is clear other parties were trying to disrupt my journey "

    Think we can all guess who they are

    By waiting until the day of the bid to pull out isn't Richard disrupting other fighters journeys?

    Boxxer are a total waste of time. Easily the worst of the major promoters in the UK.

    Why aren't the fighters and there managers telling him where to go.

    Shalom talked a good game about wanting to work with other promoters but it's all BS.

    Really looking forward to this. I’m glad Matchroom won the purse bids as it makes Cordina more likely to unify against Foster outdoors next summer if Foster wins. Great main event added to the schedule for subscribers to DAZN.

    I understand that the original planned date for September will be delayed slightly.

    Wardley Adeleye purse bids will be tomorrow.

    I'm sure they are but who knows what's in the contracts

    It's obvious that Riakporhe will challenge C B-S for his WBO Title next.

    Riakporhe with a late stoppage.

    Just ask Dramashow aka 'my sources are telling me' 'I'm hearing from the inside'. I'm sure he will know all the small print on contracts. He's educating us all everyday, for example a life long football fan like myself was completely unaware that the Saudi football league was far more popular than European top flight football......so glad he told me, to think I was going to waste my weekends watching Real Madrid vs Barcelona when I could be watching Al Taewoon.

    .....disclaimer, the Saudi League instantly loses all popularity as soon as DAZN no longer have the rites (think that's how it works!)
