They'll add some cards in the coming months, they don't always get things sorted until a month before the fight.

HBO Will have November 8th Barclays Center is likely because it is nicer for the fight between Hopkins and Kovalev.

They're probably still piecing stuff together and we'll have a more clear fall schedule by the end of August/beginning of September

The whole Schaefer & Golden Boy split also put a dent into some dates for boxing. Since it seems that Showtime Sports is pushing Oscar & Golden Boy out after the Hopkins situation.
