      It seems likely with GBP & TR. Not sure with Hearn.

        If Showtime/PBC can't even make Mikey vs Spence in house,
        same street, same kitchen, same dog, same uncle Al,
        why would you even expect them to make the fight with Crawford,
        who is on the other side of the street?
        They can't even make Spence vs Porter, for god's sake.

            Is Bob Arum setting up Crawford vs Lomachenko at any point? No.

            Is Oscar setting up Alvarez vs Munguia? Maybe at some point, but not likely for the next two fights.

            Is Eddie Hearn setting up Tony Bellew vs Anthony Joshua? Who knows, tbh, but I doubt it.

                No since their records would still be protected. It's what's "good for business." Only if boxing was in a 'crisis' like in 2016 it would be made under Hearn, TR, HBO, GBP etc

                  100% guranteed the fight on Dec. 1st was supposed to be M. Garcia Vs. Spence.
                  (Before Wilder/Fury became a possibility)

                    Mikey Garcia is basically a 126lb fighter whose physical ceiling is likely 140lbs, with the ability (purely on skills) to compete at 147lbs.

                    Errol Spence Jr is a 147lb fighter with the frame to eventually compete at 160lbs, with his sheer skills likely giving him a chance at 168lb.

                    Vasyl Lomachenko is a 126lb fighter, who likely physically maxes out at 135lbs, with the skills to have a chance at 140.

                    Terence Crawford is a 135lb fighter, who has arguably physically maxed out at 140, yet is now fighting off of just skills at 147.


                    Errol is the biggest guy, Lomachenko is the smallest guy, but ordering by size, it's still Errol, Crawford, Mikey, Loma
