    It would, but most the money is tapped out... so it might be like Ward/Rodriguez.

      Calling it now! Jennings vs Cunningham on the undercard! Jennings had a good outing in MSG fan wise, Cunningham had one of NBC's best shows... do it
      Jennings/Cunningham ain't so bad and should be a good place holder for the winner of Wilder/Stiverne. That last performance from Jennings was impressive, he had to come through some early fire.

        Now i'm starting to wonder if it'd even come off... I heard that 3 million was offered for the whole card and Hopkin's wanted 2/3 of it... So either Kov gets close to the remainder or the get 1/2 to 1/3 of it and build from there.

        But both Philly guys, Jennings was just at MSG... could be a decent seat filler

            I'm pulling for the old dog, but Kovalev definitely stands a chance.

              Anybody know kovalev's ring walk music? He plays it every time he comes to the ring but I can't find the name anywhere. Thanks

                Hopkins deserves that sort of cut tbh, but 3 mill for a fight card of this magnitude? doesn't seem enough. I think the undercard will just be filler

                  i'm surprised that hopkins is leading the poll. is he also the betting favourite?

                    OR the corner steps in.

                      Anyone who thinks Hopkins wins is an idiot. Plain and simple. The signs are all there. Murat landing 120 power shots, him not beating anyone good in years, etc.

                      You have all been fooled by Hopkins.

                      Kovalev will destroy him.
