      Gilberto Ramirez-TBA
      Oscar Valdez-TBA

      Ryota Murata-TBA also a possibility

      Don't really have high expectations for this undercard...so I'm curious to see how they price this one.

      They say "hopefullly...at least a little bit cheaper" than $50 so we'll see where it ends up, but if it's $50 standard/$60 HD there's almost no way I'm buying.

        PPV? The old man has officially lost it.

        Crawford is still trying to make a name for himself and is only a local star in his home town of Omaha.

        Postol on the other hand is only known amongst boxing diehards and is a virtual unknown to casuals.

        I didn't buy Pac/Bradley III and sure as hell won't be buying this!

          Did anyone buy the Pac/Bradley III fight from TopRank.tv? The price there was the same as the HBO SD price, so I'm wondering if it was streaming SD or if it was cheaper to get HD PPVs from their site than HBO.

          Also I can't wait for the backlash GGG will likely receive if this does even OK numbers.

            Crawford moves up in weight and fights one of the best on ppv because HBO blew their budget of these "BIG BUM SHOWS." Get it together HBO, the people will decide who is the best not your hype machine.

              A lot of people criticize Bob but he is the last great promoter. He promotes among the Latino community very well which usually draws me into buying TR ppv's. Also the Top Rank Knockouts are super HOT!! I look forward to watching Valdez against someone with a pulse or hell even for a title, I think he is ready. Still not sold on Zurdo 100% but I will admit out of Bob's stable of prospects, he has worked the hardest to improve his flaws and a lot has to do with the matchmaking Arum gives him. Crawford vs. Postol will be a chess match at the highest level and I am going with TC by clear UD. Looking forward to drinking some Chelas with my bro eating some carne...

                The undercard is looking really meh, but I'll probably end up buying this one. Birthday drops earlier that week, not going to make it to Vegas to watch it live so...

                    It's just not a ppv worthy fight and will flop.
