That's my point though. I think Ricky's team realise that they can make huge money on this fight, if they time it right.

They don't want the Witter fight to be an event like Urango and Collazo was, they want it to be an event along the lines of the fights with Castillo and Mayweather. And for that to happen, i still believe Witter is one or two world class performances away. Obviously so do Ricky and his team.

It's very smart business. Trust me, if Witter keeps performing, this fight will be huge.
