    I think Martin is #1 with the WBC as well so that’s another option.

    I wanna see Prograis vs Matias tbh. I think that’s the best fight out there for him.

      Martin is a great shout yeah, I'd be happy with that. They need to build Matias more in the US, he looks a proper killer. I want him to get a big fight, as decent as Ponce was it's not really going to get his name out there beyond being for the vacant belt.

        Yeah he’s kill or be killed too. Couldn’t see him beating Prograis but it’d be fun while it lasted.

            Be interesting if this fight happens now. Any chance of it being in the UK? Queensberry show?

              Bivol is waiting on Beterbiev-Smith winner and also waiting if Nelo accepts his challenge @ 168...

                Ginger ****e already said he won’t bring bivol down to 168 if rematch happens it’ll be at 175 again… more so he don’t wanna lose those titles at 168

                  Matchroom wins a WBO purse bid by only $30,000, and now TR wins a WBC purse bid by only $15,000. Does anyone else get the feeling sometimes that these purse bids are rigged in some way? MR has lost purse bids in the past by similar margins. I actually predicted that TR would win this bid, and then put it on a Queensberry show as a "Fxck You" to Matchroom.

                  Anyways, I hope Callum goes along with the bout and gets his title shot. It's an opportunity to capture three titles from a dangerous yet aging opponent.

                    MR won the WBO purse bid by about 10% iirc, that’s a fair bit for a $300k fight. This is less than 1%, which is a bit fishy perhaps
