Thought Eubank would be fighting but no sign. Hopefully, he fights more than once a year :KO: :KO:

Considering the circumstances this is a tidy schedule, to be fair it would be normally! Plenty to look forward to on that list. Tank making weight could be touch and go..

Gervonta Davis-Leo Santa Cruz: Their 130-Pound, 135-Pound Titles Will Be At Stake

Yet even though Davis and Santa Cruz contractually are obliged to weigh in at the junior lightweight maximum of 130, Davis’ 135-pound title will be at stake October 24 as well. They’ll fight for Davis’ WBA world lightweight title and Santa Cruz’s WBA “super” super featherweight championship

“They’ll both be weighing in at 130, but both the ’30 and ’35 titles will be at stake,” Stephen Espinoza, Showtime’s president of sports and event programming, said during a virtual press conference Wednesday. “We’ve done some research, and the most obvious example is Ray Leonard [and Donny Lalonde]. It’s something that’s done very infrequently, and it’s a bonus for that event.”

If Davis comes in overweight for the Santa Cruz fight, he’ll have to pay a substantial financial penalty. They then could still fight for Davis’ lightweight title, assuming Santa Cruz would agree to do it.

Espinoza expects Davis to make 130 pounds without incident this time, though.

“Look, he’s motivated here,” Espinoza said regarding Davis’ debut as a pay-per-view headliner. "I don’t think there will be any problems making weight on this one.”
