    Just a place to put all the rumours we will undoubtedly hear over the coming weeks.....Instead of dozens of threads appearing.

    I presume from this he's referring to a new roster predominantly based in the US....So who's gonna be on it?

    We've already got Jacobs and Miller plus the young Kazakh Welterweight who made is debut on the last Brooklyn show.

    What about guys like Usyk/Gassiev/Beterbiev?
    Is Lomachenko an option?



    Rumoured:

    Wilder
    Spence
    Jermall Charlo
    Jermell Charlo
    Mikey Garcia

    Confirmed:

    Danny Jacobs
    Jarell 'Big Baby' Miller
    Daniyar Yeleussinov

    30 man royal rumble.... Hmm... Prospects i assume and randoms/filler opponent types on 3 fight deals etc

    Dominic Brezeale
    Rau'shee Warren
    Tony Harrison
    Leo Santa Cruz
    Lamont Peterson
    Adrian Granados

    Then some bigger names... I don't expect it to be the first 5 signing with matchroom in the traditional way it's done in the uk... It'll be some deal going through their adviser. I personally think it'll be ''filler'' type opponents to make his main stable look good in competitive fights in the usa.

    He'll work with Haymon so yeah i imagine he could be their promoter and Haymon adviser like it's working out now which is more cost effective i imagine.

    Mikey Garcia is not eager to sign with any promoter because of trust issues. Wilder will not sign because of burned bridge type of relationship between Finkel and Hearn and because of the fact that he is loyal to Haymon who alongside his managers made him a star.
    Jermall Charlo and Jermell Charlo are tough to predict but i'm not too convinced that they will sign with Matchroom. Spence is with Mayweather, so that is impossible.

    @CST80

    If you were going to make a WWE reference, at least make a good one. Because of that pathetic attempt.....

    You just made the list!

    So basically this is a ploy to get Al Haymon out of the **** as most of his fighters are so inactive and the money has run out?

    I pretty optimistic Keith Thurman is one for the simple fact he did not confirm and injury and he’s been too quiet

    Wouldn't surprise me.

    I made a thread the other day that it wouldn't surprise me if Hearn and Haymon work together.

    Haymon gives Hearn the fighters.
    Hearn gives Haymon the platform.

    Win Win, and it all comes from the pocket of DAZN.
