    Hopefully that means the Saudi’s will look to make Beterbiev vs Bivol at some point.

        I envision similar problems. Very sceptical this card actually happens.

          I imagine we will know more about future plans after the presser for this show next week tho so we will see.
          Saudis are changing the game. Great time to have a massive show.

          Maybe they will fight after but I cant see it. They will be so close to getting in with the champion whoever it is why risk losing that.

            If this is the card for this who are they going to put on the undisputed card? Zhang but who else? And against who?

              TNT in the UK but maybe DAZN will have the US or Global rights. Money talks anyway

                Not bad. The Saudis are testing the waters with their latest purchase.
                Frank isn't promoting it, the Saudis are. Not sure how many boxers he'll end up having on the card if the others happen.

                  Saudis will put it on auction for the biggest bidder. They'll buy the rights to decide the TV rights too.

                  Tbh, I don't think Eddie will mind, as long term he gets back in with the Saudis. All a silly game now.

                  Also, it'll go for huge money, not sure how much TNT are backing boxing, so maybe probably more likely to be DAZN v Sky in UK.

                    Not bad at all. I guess AJ's team will be thinking that Wallinn doesn't bring scary rock-breaking power, but Wallinn is a solid, skilled guy. Parker v Wilder picks 2 guys that may be shot to ****, we'll find out !

                      According to Dan Rafael that Bivol fight is on this undercard
