    Beterbiev is supposed to defend his title IN CHINA against Fanlong Meng, Ironically February 22nd is the day they are looking at (NOT Official the last time I looked) So it wont be Beterbiev vs Ramirez.

    Too Bad they can't have The Card be ALL PBC VS Top Rank.

      Hasn't shown much, if any, of that in 42 fights so highly unlikely this is the fight Wilder turns into Floyd Mayweather.

      This is a massive moment for DAZN. If this PPV bombs, they become much much more appealing to fighters - activity, exposure and big money. What's not to like. PPV model under as much pressure as the fighters in this one! No way it does 2m buys tho, that is Arum hyperbole at its finest.

          I hear you. I'm just hoping his trainer looks at the last fight and realizes they have to do something different. Basically I'm hoping his trainer earns his check for once. Lol

            We'll probably see Shakur Stevenson in the Top Rank portion of the card.
            Eubanks v Charlo will be white hot.. last man standing

              For a fight that was stalled out for an extra year, which Arum did Jack **** to actually make a bigger fight lol.

              Rumours regarding Arum ‘doing’ me have been greatly exaggerated.

                So only a 3 fight card? They better reduce the cost then.

                I won't pay Floyd Mayweather prices for this PPV.

                  Yes, PBC does business with both showtime and Fox. Wilder is now a household name, so fighting on Fox is more fitting.

                  Nice try tho.

                    Can Xu VS Michael Conlan
                    Jermall Charlo VS Chris Eubanks JR.

                    Those are 2 REALISTIC Fights for the Undercard, but I think they will want to have top Mexican Fighter on the show, as the Mexican Fans support their Fighters more than any other group, so it would mean more buys, Beterbiev likely has a Fight in China, So Gilberto Ramirez VS Bivol makes sense, or Maybe Miguel Berchelt VS Oscar Valdez?

                      Benavidez vs. Yildrim would be nice for the PBC side! Stevenson vs. Frampton would be great on the Top Rank side!
