    Why not do a card in Russia?
    He draws here, but our exchange rate is garbage. He could sell out the Bell Centre in Montreal (20k) but he's not selling out the Big O which is where Leonard/Duran was held (fits about 70k I believe?)

            Yeah, I definitely think someone injected some money into Roc Nation's coffers to steal this from under the nose of Top Rank. Hopefully DAZN would co-promote so it's televised. Meng is a tough guy but I think Artur bludgeons him in a mid rounds stoppage.

                    No way in hell does Canelo ever fight Bivol or Beterbiev even in Vegas. I bet he fights either Callum Smith or Saunders in Vegas..

                        Beterbiev might get robbed in China. Who knows.

                            That fight doesn’t go to the cards

                                Fight will never happen in china, he will vacate title if forced to fight there.

                                Predict Bivol-Beterbiev in Canada now with maybe Jack-Pascal II as semi-final

                                    I don't think Beterbiev should go to China if his beliefs make him uncomfortable fighting there. As for Meng, honestly haven't seen anything so far that impresses me. Maybe this will be a quick turnaround fight, with him going against Bivol or Boesel afterwards. The way Artur is going though, wouldn't be surprised if he ends up with all the belts.

                                        Who says Beterbiev doesn’t have a following in Montreal
                                        Especially now that he’s got two belts and is the lineal champion
