I think this event has a lot of potential if done right - using two fights for Ortiz and Joyce already feels like a letdown. Chavez JR being the biggest letdown of them all. The last time JR fought in LA people were throwing beers at him and tearing off his merchandise to trample it

Originally posted by KTFOKING View PostI just can't imagine there not being one Latino fighter on the undercard, preferably one from Southern California.
But obviously with the guarantees of both Wilder/Fury, hard to put on a strong UC with big names.
If Haymon does this card with no Hispanics and 3 HW bouts with ortiz and Joyce facing menial opponents then this card flops even for the casual market

Leo Santa-Cruz vs Gary Russell Jr or TBA
