    WTF? It's going to be Arum's event, how Usyk fits there?

      It would be foolish for Hearn to put an A side on an ESPN undercard

        I guess the big thing is to make sure he does not start throwing punches again until he is fully healed. I would hate to see another setback.

        August sure seems close for a fight with a five week recovery time needed.

          How about Usyk vs Kabayel for his return?

          Hoping we get Hunter vs Takam....

            Usyk is co-promoted by Hearn so is Campbell. And Loma vs. Campbell takes place in the UK on a Matchroom show !

              UK fans would love to see Usyk fighting over here again. He made a great impression when he came over for Bellew.

              It looks like Eddie and DAZN want to raise his profile in the States though, so I doubt we'll be seeing him on the Loma/Campbell card.

                But still, Arum won't let it to be outside of ESPN and Hearn won't agree to showcase Usyk's HW debut outside of DAZN, that would be a very strange business decision.

                  Is it a Top Rank show or Matchroom? I'd assume Top Rank.

                    Hopefully Usuck uses TUE's to roid up during his "injury" period otherwise he may get killed by AJ.
