Soooo.... uhhhh we just not gonna say anything or whut?

Dibella Entertainment is putting on the event as lead promoter, and Warriors Boxing is partnering with them by providing the main event.

The card is being presented by Dibella Entertainment, in association with Warriors Boxing, Murphy's Boxing, Matchroom Sport, and NBC.

The Dirrell-Degale card is being supported by a ten-fight card, with at least one other direct Warriors Boxing bout, in addition to the main event (to add to that, according to Warriors Boxing's website, they are also in partnership with four other companies, one of those being Dibella).
