    The narrative around the types of fights Buatsi was taking early on was that no one wanted to get in the ring with him but I never bought that. Since when did Buatsi become the most devastating prospect of all time? I don't know if he is being over-protected, but his career really has stalled. 2021 is a big year for him and he needs to at least get in contention to fight for a title by the end of the year. This man is what, 28 years old? He's not a kid and it's time to go.

    Any chance we get Buatsi vs Johnson soon?
    I doubt it. A lot of people suggest the people behind Buatsi essentially ran away from the Buatsi fight. Joe Gallagher claims he was constantly pushing for it but Matchroom remained reluctant.

    Johnson has signed with Frank now, so even more obstacles in the way. Regardless of who’s at fault, that fight definitely should have happened IMO. Made sense for both.

        Never have I seen a journeyman headline so many PPV cards as Chisora.

        Also Bivol whilst out of the ring for an extended period of time should still be facing much stiffer opposition than this.

          Bivol vs Zurdo would be more valuable and exciting to fans than 5 of these SHIT cards put together!!

              Agreed, Eubank jr. the same ....it's no wonder fans don't take him seriously . Old Del Boy top of the bill for his 11th loss .I stopped buying Hearns shyte shows long ago.

                Interesting, I know the last fight was a bit rocky at times for Buatsi, but those are the types of fights he needs. His career just hasn't taken off the way it was expected to take off. I know Hearn gets ahead of himself, but he was saying he thinks Buatsi was ready for Beterbiev late in 2019.......Though around the same time he said he would love to put Josh Kelly in with Danny Garcia LOL.

                2016 Olympic class really hasn't done much in the pros yet, the 2020 class has some intriguing fighters though. McCormick at his best looks really good. He beat GRJ's little brother in a good fight at the World Series of Boxing a bit before the Olympics.

                  She has just rematched Persoon and is now fighting Jonas who gave a great account of herself in a draw last time out against WBC champ Harper. So she is fighting the best. But which names do you have in mind?

                    The Serrano who did everything to get out of the fight last time and caused nothing but trouble? Yeah, Serrano clearly wants the fight. Not.
