WBO declines Matchroom’s extension request for AJ/Usyk

[QballLobo]

Per Fat Dan’s Twitter. They have 10 days to negotiate a deal or it will go to a purse bid unless AJ vacates.

An interesting scenario. Not ideal for Anthony Joshua and Matchroom to have to rush through this deal. But the prospect of purse bids could be worse than anything for Eddie Hearns. Would be interesting to see who would have an interest in staging the event... be hilarious if some Ukrainian oligarch won the bids.
