    Update :


    According to a site that hypes fights, which got the info from Mack's Facebook page, the Glen Johnson-Yusaf Mack fight will be added to ESPN2's card next week featuring Jesse Brinkley vs. Curtis Stevens.

    Another site ran a story earlier, saying the fight was scrapped altogether, but hopefully that's not the case.

    I think his Facebook update came after that interview was posted.

    I seriously hope the fight is still on. It's a great fight to be made.

    Does ESPN have enough money for two eliminators in the same card?

    I can't imagine the Brinkley-Stevens fight is expensive.

    The budget of FNF is very small tho.

    Thats almost too good of a fight for ESPN, it would rate as one of their better fights in recent years. Short money to land the ESPN date but the payoff for the winner could make it worthwhile. I just want to see this fight happen and not see it cancelled altogether.

    Glen Johnson just wants this fight so he get to Cloud. Mack should be an easy win. He isnt looking for a payday, just the opportunity.

    Since Mack is also a DiBella fighter, they should really move it to the Green-Bika undercard (if that fight actually happens). And if it doesn't, then they should replace Green-Bika with this fight. It's a really intriguing fight, worth Showtime dropping $50k on for a Shobox.
