    I doubt the fight of this magnitude is going on in the day. Oscar is funny but definitely trolling because of the Dana aspect.

      Then you must also know that neither Loma nor Usyk is motivated by money. Which means, your idea of Loma to unretire is just ludicrous.

        No it will not.

        MSG is as big as Wimbledon on a global scale and he got destroyed by Ruiz and then got beat by Usyk on both stages.

        Fighting on the undercard of a Canelo fight is beneath a global star like AJ and it will not resurrect him one bit.

        That’s like saying Canelo should have fought on the undercard of Jake Paul after he had lost to Bivol.

            Just the glory huh. Yeah right. Why do you think Usyk moved up to HW. If he's not motivated by money why will I end up paying for the PPV when he fights Dubois. Offer Lomachenko enough and with it against Tank on the biggest show in town and he'd accept, no doubt. Rather than being negative which is easy how about you try some positivity and offer up some fights instead

              What are you about. AJ is a circus act right now, Dubois finished him. Yes he could headline the O2 still but so what no one believes he's at the top anymore. Fighting in Vegas on the best card ever and knocking out Wilder would bump him back there. Surely you see that. Canelo is the biggest name in boxing who dared to be even greater by stepping up in weight again to fight Bivol. Being on a joke fight would do nothing for any serious boxer let alone the recognised no 1 commercial name in the sport.

              How about coming up with your own fights? Try and have at least a little bit of ambition

                Eubank Jr v Adames
                Boots v Benn
                Tank v Lomochenko
                Wilder v Joshua

                Really tap into the UK market. Plenty of yanks on the card. Charge me £50 if you like!!!!!!
                This is NOT the fight in boxing and just a wasted year for both Canelo and Bud. 154 is stacked Bud had plenty of opponents there and Turki should have thrown the money at Canelo vs Benavidez not Canelo vs Bud

                  Of course it is. Nothing else gets close. Theres no one at 154 that offers anything like what Canelo does. Bud has wasted time this year I agree but can only be applauded for reaching for the stars and true greatness by going after Canelo. Maybe he will find it tougher than he thinks but there is no doubt he is a truly special talent and if anyone can make the transition it's him.

                  Just writing this makes me wish the fight was tomorrow, cannae wait

                    How great is canelo? He's spent the last 4 years ducking the clear number 1 guy in his division. He also got pummeled by bivol during that stretch. I don't know this fight is like another matrix sequel or star wars movie. It's not going to be meaningful but will sell a lot which is the point

                      Canelo has ducked Benavidez for three years straight. He fought Bivol not because he “dared” to be great but because he thought Bivol was an easy win.

                      AJ can fight Wilder in the UK or Saudi Arabia and can KO him without having to fight on the undercard of anyone. AJ is a global star just like Canelo and this is despite the losses he’s had. This is pretty obvious.

                      My own fights? You mean my wishful fights? It’s pretty obvious fans don’t make fights. Promoters do.

                      Fighters are busy ducking each other or fighting easy matchups. We’re left scratching our heads everytime that happens so what good will my wishful fights do?
