Manny v Khan headlining with these 2 fights on the undercard would be worth buying.

That's gonna be a lot of money to pull off... but Middle East gonna be thirsty for a big event after Qatar loses the FIFA bid.

For a hypothetical card, it looks great.

We'll see how many of these fights actually come off.

There's a lot of non-TR fighters involved in this hypothetical card, so we'll see if they can get it all worked out.

They're probably getting a huge site fee from whatever hotel/arena is going to host the fights. Wouldn't surprise me if they get $10mil+ just to bring a big fight card there.
