    So no Korobov? Come on Bob, make it happen... Vanes would be a nice substitution though

      Don't blame them... southpaw on short notice isn't ideal. Vanes would be interesting... especially after a month layoff

        Oh I didn't even read the details, I didn't know Macklin was supposed to fight in a couple of weeks. Vanes would be a lot easier for Macklin then Korobov IMO and tbh I don't even think Macklin would beat Korobov with a full training camp if Mat hasn't completely broken down as a fighter

          Yea, he's supposed to be on the Agbeko/Rigo card and they're less than a month away

            what else is on that card? Khabib was supposed to be on that card, I read Bob wanted DeMarco (**** fight) but I guess it's not happening..

              Huge card evidently, Egor making his pro debut
              Kirkland vs Tapia too

                oh, not a bad card at all, didn't know Kirkland was fighting on this card... If Macklin gets Vanes, that would be nice, Korobov is fighting another light touch but at least he's fighting. Really excited for Egor but sucks he's going to be fighting TBA (I guess we have all been spoiled with Lomachenko lol)


                Guess Khabib isn't fighting on it then. Wonder whats next for him... Surely he will have a fight lined up soon

                  Maybe we'll get something good. So far the only gold medalist to get a light touch was Shiming and of course he'll need to start him off slow. Murata fought the Oriental champ and KO'd him in 2.

                  Egor might get a decent opponent

                    Yeah also Beterbiev just fought a guy in his second fight who has fought a lot of big names so maybe Egor will get moved faster then Shiming. I think he's ready

                      Definitely faster... Shimin is still fighting with an Amateur style
                      but Arum is smart to strike while the iron is hot in the chinese market
