Too much money Vs returns.
AJ Wilder is PPV stand alone, as is Wilder or AJ Vs Fury.
I can't see enough money generated to lure either of the three I've mentioned into this.

Take Chisora out, and put in either Luis Ortiz, Jarrell Miller or Alexander Povetkin for the final 2 spots.

Hearn refused to relinquish site, date and promotional rights for 50 million.
So to include AJ in this tournament I'd guess AJ would need to be guaranteed 200-250 million over 3 fights.
It's just not feasible

What if 6 of the top 7 signed on, and froze Camp Eddie out? Proper put a spanner in it then.

Well, with AJ making £15-20 million per title defense, if you include him, you would need about £100 million on the table.

If it was going to be a top six or a top eight - then I think you would have to include the likes of Dominic Breazale, Jarrel Miller, Alexander Povetkin and probably Kubrat Pulev....

Having 4 or five Brits would be excessive as you need more of an international flavour to get the worldwide investment needed.

Put in Pulev and Hrgovic in maybe. Chisora doesn't deserve to be mentioned.

Get Whyte out of there. He demands far too much money for what he is
