Just to confirm here, Selby is only 'headlining' the portion of the show thats on Sho Extreme?

Then that will lead into the Frampton vs LSC card on Sho Championship boxing.

Never heard it described as a 'headline' when its just an undercard being televised on a lesser outlet.

He's headlining an empty arena on a standard definition sub-channel that feeds into the main card on the main channel.

Thats what i thought.

What a strange way to word it.

At first i was thinking they are going to need one hell of an undercard to sell this fight

I liked the part where they called him 'The Welsh Floyd Mayweather'.

So Shelby is going to be a potential opponent for the winner?

Selby in the USA vs a live body, what's not to like. I know, the American fans have no skin in the game, but a good show here and we can put some skin in. Gary Russell is making noises.
