$1m is the standard for Heavyweight world title fights.

The ABC’s have this set.

At the least I would have thought. They will charge PPV for it, as they do on anything half decent, and it is only half decent.

I don't doubt you but I've been trying to find where the minimum bids are set in the rules.
If you know please share I'm very curious o. The minimum bid process on title fights

The purse bid section was on a much earlier page.

It says to go to appendix to get the figures. :TU:

Was Chisora with Don Charles when he pushed Usyk all the way?

Chisora preferred to be trained by MMA guys from London Shootfighters, ahead of Don Charles..

How Don has landed this gig with Dubois is beyond me- Daniels father is an absolute fool.

Even Florian Marku ditched him after 1 or possibly 2 fights because he was out of his depth.

I'd not have much confidence in a trainer talking the way he is about Dubois' chances. Jesus. At the very least, you've got to instill belief in your fighter than they can find a way to take Usyk out of his stride.

Has he split from McGuigan? I know he had gone from Martin Bowers, then Mark Tibbs.

Also I think he had gone to a number of amateur clubs. Is he still managed by Bowers?

Still managed by Bowers but trained by Don Charles now after leaving Shane.

Martin Bowers is a better trainer and has a far superior set up than Charles. It’s all really bizzare

Agreed. I didn’t think Bowers came across well during the Joyce fight though and I actually thought Shane was a near perfect fit for him.

Strange.
