Looks like he’s just signing new boxers just to compete in this.

Like when he signed Wilder on a one-fight deal just so he has a decent HW to compete against QP.

I just had a look at their boxers & here's my choices. Matchroom fighters on the left.

Justis Huni v Moses Itauma - Heavy
Ben Whittaker v Willy Hutchinson - Light Heavy
George Liddard v Brad Pauls - Middle
Conah Walker v Jack Rafferty - Welter
Andy Cruz v Sam Noakes - Light

If they do want to make it 7 v 7 toss in these fights....
Pat Brown v Aloys Junior
Shabaz Masoud v Dennis McCann

This would be a great event. Please let it happen. Solid 50-50s is all we need.

This defeats the purpose. Saving his own boxers' back

Callum Smith-Joshua Buatsi II among 15 fights in play for rerun of Queensberry vs. Matchroom

Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn has shed some light on more potential contests that could take place in a '5v5' with allegedly’s Queensberry Promotions.

The two promotional outfits pitted five of their best fighters against one another back in 2024 with Warren walking out a clear winner, five-zip. There has been talk about running it back ever since.

Two years on it looks as though we will finally get to see it with talk of the same format returning or even 7v7 to take place this winter.

“Certainly, there have been discussions with myself and George Warren about that card; about a string of fights really,” Hearn confirmed to Boxing Scene. “Seven or eight fights that have potential between Queensberry and Matchroom. We just want to run it back. I mean, the event last time, although the scoreboard wasn't great [for Matchroom], to watch it was incredible, and when we look now at the potential matchups I think it's an opportunity to do an even better night than we did last time."

Hearn confirmed that a rematch between WBO interim light heavyweight titleholder Callum Smith and Joshua Buatsi could top the card should Smith be promoted to full champion. He also listed other potential bouts that could feature.

“Denzel Bentley against George Liddard,” Hearn said. “Georgio Visioli against Louie O’Doherty. Lyndon Arthur against Ben Whittaker. Sam Noakes against Joe Cordina – obviously he's fighting Abdullah Mason. Johnny Fisher against Dillian Whyte. I mean it's never ending. There are literally 15 that we've outlined. So yeah lots to pick from.”
