    starting with AJ/Vlad ..

    a real stinker imo...with the money this is generating i am sure there could have been another A class fight just below AJ on the card,as the HBO etc shows do...

    To be honest i think hearn was banking on the Callum smith or George Groves fight to be on this.

    Perez missed the weight today. Undercard shouldn't last that long give the main event has to be on at ten.

    Crap. Bad let down but is often the way on the biggest fights. All the money goes into the headliners pockets.

    but this fight is generating so much money there is no excuse not to put a decent contender type fight on is there?not a single 50/50 or even 60/40 fight on undercard,disgrace...the only half decent fight is Campbell v Perez and he has missed weight!!

    Rigo is not expensive and would have been good for UK fans to see...maybe v Quigg...would have put him back on map too

    Rigo is fighting on Ward undercard and Quigg has moved up in weight

    Agreed. To much money involved to have an undercard like that. Hearn must've creamed it big time !
