I hope the Brook fight comes off w/o a hitch.
Probably on the Alvarez-Lara undercard. I don't see them getting matched straight away though even if it's just one of them is a Floyd dance partner.
Yeah. I think Brook/Porter will go to purse bid and Porter will get a boat load going to England. I think Brook has the skills but not sure on the stones. It would be interesting though if GB won the purse bid. Brook would have to cut that cord.
Arum just said fuck it we'll do Burns-Crawford where it makes most money. Schaefer is saying the same about Porter-Brook but everybody thinks it ends up in the States for some reason. It could definitely sell 10 000 tickets in England. Depends how much Showtime come up with and how much GBP are willing to subsidise. Probably a PPV card covers the subsidy.
True. I think that Hearn has a suspicion that if they dont get this via purse bid that the client might back out again. However perhaps GB knows that and would rather have Porter fight in house or milk him a little with another opponent. So they throw a massive bid in thinking Special Kase might injure himself a day or two before the fight.
