    Looks like a great card is shaping up, Usyk, Chocalito-Cuadras ... very solid.

    If Gonzalez v Cuadras II is on the card, it automatically becomes PPV-worthy. Usyk would be a very nice bonus. If he's put up against a credible threat, then this would be a great card.

    Probably not. Numbers aren't everything though, let's be glad we're getting the fight.

    And with this news I feel we are more likely to get Canelo-GGG in September too!

    Against who? Huck, Briedis, Bellew busy. Already beat Glowacki. Can't see Lebedev or Gassiev. Dorticos would be good.

    Test the whole card. Every last boxer should test under USADA/VADA.

    Dorticos would be good. I could actually see Lebedev, the guy is a warrior and will fight anyone. Gassiev is moving to HW.

    The WBO top 15 are:

    1. Noel Gevor
    2. Mairis Briedis
    3. Firat Arslan
    4. Damir Beljo
    5. Krzystof Glowacki
    6. Krzystof Wlodarczyk
    7. Pablo O. Natalio Farias
    8. Kevin Lerena
    9. Michael Hunter
    10. Maxim Vlasov
    11. Rakhim Chakhkiev
    12. Thabiso Mchunu
    13. Dimitry Kudryashov
    14. Imre Szello
    15. Olanrewaju Durodola

    Vlasov, Kudryashov, Hunter, Wlodarczyk, Gevor, Lerena, or even Szello would all be acceptable if they are the best opponents that will get into the ring at that time with Usyk.

    Agree, I think all sanctioned cards should be tested by a international anti-doping association.

    GGG-Jacobs is agreed to be VADA tested.

    Don't know much about Hunter and Szello. Don't rate Gevor and Lerena. Vlasov, Wlodarczyk, Kudryashov, Durodola all decent B-level guys. Not many bums at cruiserweight.

    I don't know all of them in great detail, but they're reasonable for a keep busy fight.

    Someone should tell Jacobs, this will look awkward without him actually being there to fight. That wasteman is not fighting GGG!

    F that.
    Aint worth risking losing Jacobs because he took some GNC protein drink a week out, once, and only after a particularly grueling session. Then finding out the traces of %^$^& banned agent were so far under the allowable limit, the fight should have been allowed to go on anyway.

    Haymon got Lara on speed dial to throw in there JIC lolol. And NDam just won the interim belt. He'd make an acceptable replacement.
