Shouldnt the visa issues be sorted all out when the fight was signed instead of 2 days before the fight?

HBO's gotta like this more viewers for lopez/garcia

[LAFIRPO]

Finally, a fight worthy of getting called off. LOL.

Would've been a waste of a Hopkins fight... An uncompetitive version of Hopkins-Wright.

If there is no card, the Deontay Wilder undercard fight will obviously be off. Golden Boy will have to move him to another show.
