    There is drawing power and there is risk-reward. You get guys like Usyk coming out of the EE with the talent to beat you but without the drawing power to make taking the risk worth it.

    So we get poop like Whyte vs Rivas.

    In US might be problem that Usyk was in CW division not HW when he had fought these guys from real TOP5, TOP10.

    Pro boxing is barely a sport. It is really prize fighting. Very few are fighting to show they are the best. Belts mean little. Boxing organizations are a joke.

    In this era, it's about making the most whilst risking the least.

    Usyk, for all his obvious talent, represents a risky fight without great income earning potential.

    Those 2 fights on one card make it worth paying for thats for sure and it could only help get more eyes on Usyk
