Let's say Ennis beats Madrimov....where does that leave Madrimov? Two losses against former WWs, low marquee value, no title....high-risk/low-reward. Hearn does not want to sacrifice either guy if he doesn't have to. MR is looking closely at the chessboard and thinking hard about the next move.

A potentially good play: Ennis fights Chukhadzhian, successfully defends the IBF title. Then MR can request the IBF to give him a high ranking at 154lb. Madrimov just needs to stay busy, ideally getting someone like Bohachuk.
