    Thurman being reported aswell. Sounds more likely as an undercard, Hurd and Thurman comebacks

      Mandalay Bay has also come into the picture now. Tho it seems they're set on the Dec 1st Date now.

      LA with a 20,000 seater or VG with a 12,500. More money to be made in VG but more star power may attend in LA.

        just give me an all out heavyweight fight card. Big guys smashing each other, building future legit opponents and test some prospects.

        Wilder Vs Fury
        Ortiz Vs Breazeale
        Kownacki VS Ugonoh
        Ajagba Vs Molina/Washington

          That's actually the Eddie Hearn special right there. Put big names on the UC even if they are in mismatches.

          But Thurman/Hurd aren't coming cheap, even in tune up bouts. Will be interesting to see what Al does here. Tricky proposition with Wilder/Fury's wants and needs.

            While wilder is going after the true lineal champ,

            AJ is over in the UK stroking his own **** fighting a shot small gatekeeper

              Its how most PPVs are done. Does anyone honestly think Fury is going to take short change so they can load the undercard. Joshua/Povetkin undercard aint great because they gave 2 undercard spots to WOB, and a higher purse so Ryabinsky didnt try to take it to Russia. Probably more yet to be revealed.

              Hurd and Thurman would take 750,000 in a tune up. Santa Cruz/Russell Jr, Davies/Mares youre talking $5-6 million.

                Santa cruz vs Russel jr is a great fight...Davjs vs Mares is Davis fighting another featherweight coming up to 130 and coming off a loss to fight him. When is Gervonta going to fight the real WBA champ Machado ?

                  I don't know, Thurman probably is getting more than that even in a tune up. Hurd? Possibly.

                  Mayweather/Canelo was a monster event, so you can put a great fight like Matthysse/Garcia on the UC. This one where they have to pretty much generate 300-350k buys to get what they want? Yeah, you're not putting on some big money UC fights.

                    Exactly. LSC is one of the biggest name fighters that Haymon has. No way he's fighting on an undercard, especially in a unification fight where both guys will be making top money.

                      LSC can fight on an UC, but only on a big event. You aren't putting him on an UC when you may or may not even cover the guarantees for the two main event participants.
