    Where do you guys think Usyk vs Gassiev will take place? The Russian Boxing Federation has expressed interest in hosting the fight on Russia's Boxing day, which is on july 24th.

    They should fight on 5 de Mayo. In Mexico City Mexico, a legit big drama show.

    In fact, the winner would already have a better position to negotiate with AJ than Wilder does.

    Loads of fights were supposed to take place in Arabia over the years and they all fell through. There was even talk of the Fury Klitschho rematch being fought out there on a giant yacht .

    No way!

    The second the US networks avoided these tournaments is the second that 'real fans' should have woken up and realised that their interests are not taken into consideration at all.

    There isn't an American boxing fan out there who could argue that they shouldn't have the option to watch the fights.

    If you're not interested in watching Usyk v Gassiev then that is fair enough.....but to not have the choice is pretty disgusting.

    Upset no, annoyed yes.

    America, land of the free....the 'home of boxing'......

    Not allowed to watch a fight which will go down in the history books of the sport.

    I couldn't think of a more fitting location for it to be staged. The Island of Iron-jawed warriors for a fight between two certified iron-jawed warriors.
