This is a TREMENDOUS fight between 2 champions and nobody knows about it. How are these 2 guys getting paid if nobody pays for the fight? and I'm sure both are getting paid very well to fight each others. WHERE the hell is the money coming from and why is there NO promotion?
    Great point. I love the opportunities Floyd gives his guys too, but the promotion of said events ultimately does them no to lil good. Gotta have a two pronged attack here. I mean Stevenson vs Jack should DEFINITELY be getting more hype then its getting.

      I totally agree with you, this is a massive fight for Jack. I would expect more noise from his promotional side, why? Because Jack himself is not a talker much like Anthony Joshua, so you need to put your promoter coat on and help propel his name/sell the fight. From Adonis side this is normal, I rarely see much noise for his fights.

        LOL, but yea thats a bad look when a fight is 3 weeks away & its a champ vs a champ who are....what maybe top 5 in the division & for sure top 10 in the division. This is basic promotion sh^t & something Mayweather Promotions/Ellerbe needs to figure out sooner rather than later.

          Also, gotta love the ACC

          Sec 107 Row 4 - $138
          Sec 108 Row 14 - $632
          No I didn’t I’m going to Montreal regardless but got insurance on the tix and hotel I can cancel at the last minute

          So it is what it is

          Those prices seem ******ed though

          When I checked on Friday they started at $ 40 and floor seats were $325

          Seemed like a good deal they were way cheaper then I thought they’d be

          But the prices you posted seem crazy

I'd like to have seen Kovalev, Ward, Beterbeiv, or even Alvarez be the one to take him out but I don't even care anymore. I just want the division to move on and I don't see Jack being able to hang with Kov, Beterbeiv, the Nail, or Bivol. I'm not sure if Jack beats Barrera.
          Your crazy Redd this fight is the sh.it best vs the best

          Badou was the #1 guy at 168 before he moved up and probably has the best resume of any fighter the last 2 -3 years and Stevenson is probably #1 by default since Ward retired

          It’s no worse then 2 of the top 3 guys in the division ( Bivol hasn’t really beaten anyone and Beterbiev is so inactive )

          This is a great fight man

              I guess they will find a reason to postpone this fight somehow... Otherwise it'll be a complete commercial flop.

                I'm looking forward to this one. Hopefully there is no real problems behind the scenes.

                  I was gonna drive up from nj to see it at Montreal when it was originally announced, for the fight but also just to visit Montreal again. Guess it ll have to be the next decent Canada show.
