      Deadzone!!!! TBC has two fights within 2 weeks of the first one!
      Yarde is definitely not fighting Buatsi (No way Warren and Tunde allows it)
      Hearn really need to pull his finger out and work overtime in 2019.

        It’s usually a quiet time because there isn’t generally many fights in January so not a huge surprise. Only the likes of Joshua usually get announced over a month ahead as standard.

        I do think he needs to pull off Khan Brook in the UK though and needs one or two big fights in the US (Jacobs & GGG are really important he signs!)

          YOu might be right about Yarde and Hearn is positioning his fighter well. Inevitably it will make big money for them, career highest, because it would be a big domestic clash. So he is effectively saying to Yarde to come fight for biggest payday or be obvious to everyone you are ducking Buatsi - but if you do then everybody will consider Buatsi ahead of you!

          Im hoping frank and Eddie come to some sort of deal to be honest , there are a few fights they would benefit from sharing each other’s fights (BJS and Fury for starters); could this be a concession Hearn makes and let’s him fight on BT in order to get another big name across on a matchroom card?

            I think TBA smokes TBC any day of the week. TBC probably loses to TBD as well. I wouldn't mind seeing all 3 of them on the same card though.

              If DAZN and/or Hearn miss out on GGG then that is just sad. DAZN has pretty much all the players at MW, and the money man while having some options at 168. I'd say that signing is a must. Then you put him out on April. Against who? I don't know but having GGG and Canelo in back to back months would be really good for DAZN as well as Joshua/Whyte II.

              Canelo got a soft touch last time out so time for him to get one of the top dogs at either MW or SMW. Jacobs is the guy unless Canelo decided to go the SMW route.

              Khan/Brook means far more for the UK public than stateside. Solid fight nonetheless that needs to happen.

              Hearn can salvage the first half schedule by locking up GGG and getting him a nice match up before Canelo/Jacobs in May. If not? Then meh.

                Frank Warren is a bitter old k unt. He would never sit down with Hearn and work out a proper fight with him. Even with Fury he was on talksport talking about money and then trying to say the fight if it doesn’t happen it’s Joshua fault, he is one of those promoters that is just horrible for boxing.
                Hearn can offer Yarde his biggest payday and Warren would not let that fight happen, BJS fighting Andrade was due to BJS because he knows he would win, if warren thinks he would lose to a Hearn fight that fight wouldn’t go ahead.

                  Comparing to the Deadzone, PBC has been a smashing success.

                    Matchroom USA Feb show is rumored to be Hooker vs Algieri, Beterbiev vs Smith Jr, Johnson vs Monaghan. Not sure what is rumored for the Farmer vs Carroll card.
