In August Dan Rafael said it was close. A few weeks ago Coppinger said it was a done deal.
And yet still nothing official from either side?
They needed to start promoting this fight yesterday as these guys are not huge mainstream names.
Now we’re less than 7 weeks from the reported date and still nothing.
Is it Haymon going cheap on the promotion trying to maximize his profit with no guarantee this one does a big PPV number?
Or were the reports premature and there are still details to be worked out?
Clock’s ticking.
Cautiously optimistic is the best attitude to take. Hopefully the worst that happens is that it happens a few months later than when we were being promised.
I don't think it is happening. Unless those guys are training already and I don't know in the eyes of the promoters there will be enough time to promote such a big event.
