    Smith vs Bauderlique should be announced in the next week or so. Matchroom have won the purse bid. Should still land on the Usyk-Joshua II undercard.

      Anything else rumoured for this card? Had heard Hrgovic-Zhang was likely, and up until recently I’d have thought Okolie was going to be on it but now not so sure …

        Galal Yafai, Cheavon Clarke will be on there I imagine. I’ve not heard or seen anything tbh.

          I'd figure that would be a headliner or chief support to a PPV card. Does the IBF have any policy when it needs to take place by a certain date?

            I’m not sure, I know it was rescheduled from the Canelo-Bivol card. To be honest I don’t know if Hrgovic-Zhang and Smith-Bauderlique are likely to be on the AJ card - maybe the IBF eliminator goes onto Canelo-GGG III or something. I’d expect it on one of the two. As you say, it’s PPV chief support worthy.

              Heard Hughie vs Hunter may not be getting rescheduled. Joyce vs Hunter Sep 24th? Only other options I can think of for Joyce are: Wallin, Helenius or Bakole. Unless they miraculously resurrect the Parker fight- which is near impossible at this point.

                Why would Hunter fight a BT fighter?

                  Why wouldn’t he? I don’t see any issue with Hunter fighting on BT.

                    Isn't he signed with boxxer?

                      Hunter’s been exchanging words with Joe Parker on Twitter I saw. He said the WBA are letting him have a fight before November or something like that? Isn’t Hatton-Barrera rescheduled for November - may that and Hughie-Hunter still happen at the same time, or is it off?
