    By the way, bro, when's Lopez fighting? Any news about that fight?
    The last thing I saw was this:

    Teofimo Lopez-George Kambosos bout now targeted for October in Middle East, Triller says
    August 14, 2021
    By Mike Coppinger
    ESPN

    The never-ending saga to find a new date and location for Teofimo Lopez-George Kambosos marches on.

    Triller co-founder Ryan Kavanaugh told ESPN on Saturday he is planning to stage the rescheduled undisputed lightweight championship fight in October in the Middle East.

    "We are currently working with the regulatory bodies to bring this fight to Saudi [Arabia] or UAE [United Arab Emirates] in October," Kavanaugh said. "We think it's the perfect place for such a landmark fight."

    Triller hoped to stage the fight on Oct. 17 in Sydney, but Lopez balked at the 14-day quarantine mandated by the Australian government. The disagreement led to an IBF ruling, handed down Monday, that Triller must stage the fight in a location that doesn't require a quarantine.

    The New Jersey-based sanctioning body also gave Triller until Oct. 17 to hold the fight; contracts are due by Aug. 24.

    "Can't wait to see the details," Lopez's manager, David McWater, told ESPN when informed of Triller's Middle East plan. "We were always willing to go anywhere we didn't have to quarantine."

    In the event Triller fails to submit contracts by Aug. 24, the rights to the fight will revert to the next-highest bidder at February's auction. That would be Eddie Hearn's Matchroom, which bid $3.506 million. Lopez's promoter, Top Rank, came in third at $2.315 million. Triller won the rights with a bid of $6.018 million...

    Lopez (16-0, 12 KOs) is set to earn a career-high $3.912 million; he made $1.35 million for the Lomachenko bout.

        Well to be fair, what’s stopping that fight happening now?

        GGG has been sat around for 8 months now and Andrade has no fight in the pipeline

        I know GGG is supposed to fight Murata on new year but that’ll be a year between fights. And it’s not even confirmed yet anyway.

        There’s no reason why they couldn’t have been looking at GGG v Andrade at various points over the last couple of years. Both were pretty much inactive for the whole of 2020. And let’s not use covid as an excuse when big unification fights like Loma v Lopez took place.
        Which fight that Golovkin had in the past should Andrade have been the opponent?

        You said it yourself. Golovkin is fighting Murata. But are you saying Golovkin should fit Andrade in before doing that fight or something?

        Just because some fights happened in covid time, doesn't mean all fights will. Have you forgotten the episode of Andrade refusing to fight unless he got all the money with no cuts? When he said fighters like AJ should take cuts to pay fighters like him? It isn't just down to the promoters if some fights don't happen. There are some crazy fighters out there with some seriously ****** ideas in their head.

          Who cares about many moons ago? We're talking about NOW!. Charlo was offered a one off fight with Andrade for 7 Million. He didn't want it. Andrade was offered up to go over to PBC to have the fight. But they won't send any offers. They don't want it. Charlo is a b1tch.

          Which Charlo? You really need to ask that? It's the coward one at Middle who was offered big money for a unification but turned it down.

            Also, you all can always start your own UK boxing page for Eddie if you want to stroke his ego 24/7.
            There's a huge difference between them... All of what is said about them, in in fact true. Therefore, it's justified. All the nonsense said about Hearn, isn't. It's slander to protect their cowards and trying to discredit him so people don't trust what he says. That to go alongside ego and nationalism. They don't want a Brit running boxing. They want a Black man doing so. But tough luck, that Black man has ran boxing into the ground and is doing a horrible job of it. Eddie is actually looking to make the fights boxing needs. Haymon is just doing what is best for him, not the sport.

Hearn is big time now so he will be criticized just as all the other big name promoters/networks. My problem is many UK fans think Hearn isn’t guilty as the same stuff they accuse Arum/Haymon of. None of them are better than the other and they all do what’s best for their companies instead of the sport. It’s just the way it is.
              Give me some genuine examples of Eddie lying or doing things that are shady?

                This post is full of shit. Even Canelo left Hearn and white DAZN for the Black man. Eddie failed miserably in his venture into US boxing. If I were a US border agent, only a Katie Taylor fight would be his only passport in. Screw Eddie.

                  Canelo didn't leave Hearn. He knew he wasn't going to get Plant unless it was on PBC. Cowards and b**** won't budge even though they are nothing but Z listers against the biggest star in North America. Just imagine thinking you're a someone when you're a complete nobody. That is pure delusion on their part.

                  As soon as Canelo has finished with Plant, he will be returning to Hearn as his promoter. He doesn't trust nor care for Haymon. Haymon tried to lock him in for multiple fights, but Canelo told him to f3ck himself.

                  You don't fail when looking to put on the biggest fights with the biggest money. The failures are the Americans who refuse to fight quality opponents the way they should. But instead they play diva and run away to fight bums because bums don't scare them as much as the top fighters do.

                    • Maybe they have some good reasons. High risk. Low reward.
