Drozd is injured, the entire card has been cancelled.

The other fights will be moved, perhaps some to the May 21 Povetkin-Wilder card.

I was looking forward to this, it would have been an excellent main event with some of my favorite up-and-comers like Bivol on the undercard.

Drozd has been a terrible world champion so far.

When Drozd beat Wlodarczyk I thought he'd go on to really establish himself as the #1 CW. Instead he's made 1 crappy title defense against a no-hoper in a year and a half. Very disappointing.

I think that it's time to set up a Makabu fight for interim WBC belt against someone from WBC top-5 (Durodola, Huck, Briedis or Usyk). Your thoughts?

Now it is Bellew vs Makabu. WBC stripped Drozd:

Decent fight. I'd go with Makabu. Bellew is a bit past his prime now and didn't exactly impress against a mediocre Masternak.

Always had the impression Drozds Injurys were worse than expected.
Hopefully he gets himself fit to get first crack at the winner.
