No real options for this fight really, should have secured an opponent before booking the venue

Its odd how things work out. If he signed with Hearn, Valdez/Quigg wouldnt have happened, would told Arum do a keep busy fight and we'll have a big PPV in the summer. Which begs the question why didnt Warren do the same?

Because all Warren cares about is getting a stadium event and his rivalry with Hearn. The interviews at the time were very telling, Warren just paid more to get him, Hearn wouldn't budge on price. And you are right, that is what would have happened if he went with him. I was gobsmacked but he had a list of demands, hearn and wareen said yes to all, but warren offered more money.
