that would be good...just no marlon wright as referee!

Unless they're bringing the Mayweather/Marquez fight to the Bell Centre, I don't think it'll be on the undercard.

I don't think Bute cares too much about exposure, he's enjoying the status quo too much as it is.

No reason to put it on the Mayweather/Marquez undercard when they can sell out the bell center in Montreal. I would love for them to put it on the undercard though since I'm going to buy the PPV.

BTW can you post a link?

it can be in a different venue and the same PPV card surely. They do it all the time in the UK with a domestic card and a vegas card

Some people are speculating the fight could be on the same Golden Boy PPV card as Mayweather vs. Marquez in September.

would this fight on the floyd/jmm card would really help sell tickets???

I thought Bute wanted Froch?
