Thurman-Porter happens in March, and Brook-Bizier happens in March, lining up rest/camps perfectly for both fighters; with Danny Garcia having fought in January, he's likely to want to get back into the ring by May/June, to avoid sitting for too long.
Summer Blockbuster- Sky Box Office:
-Brook(c) vs Thurman/Porter winner(c) - WBA/IBF 147 title
-Frampton vs Quigg II -IBF/(WBA) 122 title [if Rigo steps aside; if not, no WBA]
-Callum Smith vs George Groves
-Anthony Joshua in another meaningful fight (i think Jennings falls through)
Showtime Championship Boxing - same day broadcast
Jack/ChavezJr winner(c) vs Degale(c) - WBC/IBF 168 title
Santa Cruz(c) vs Selby(c) -WBA/IBF 126 title
Hearn delivers a massive card for Sky Sports (closing out the night with a doubleheader with British interest from the US), while Showtime opens their day with a massive 147 fight in the afternoon (with an evening replay as the lead-in to a big doubleheader to close out the night).
