Rumblings from last night that heavyweight might be Dubois vs Huni.

I did think pulling Hrgovic over would be a touch unfair as I'm pretty sure almost all of hrgovic's fights have been promoted by Sauerland.

Hasn't Eddie got 50% of Hrgovic? He's definitely had a share for a long time.

Hrgovic is boxings equielant of the Queen Vic and the Archers in Eastenders with someone having half of him.

He hedged his bets. No harm in that.

No. Neither Eddie or Kalle have a part of Hrgovic anymore. Hrgovic has a contract for at least one more fight with the Saudis.

very interesting, wonder who Hrgovic will fight. Hope Bakole gets a fight with him or someone of his ilk. Is Bakole with anyone?

Bakole is unfortunately with Boxxer who seemingly aren’t doing anything for him. He’s been ordered to fight Cassius Chaney as an eliminator for the WBA title (not sure if it’s a final eliminator or not or whether the winner will fight Usyk/Fury or the regular champ).

Chaney is with Don King who will overvalue his fighter and there may be issues getting money from him in the end like Dubois had.

I can’t see Boxxer trying to get the rights for the fight so will just take a % and it will drag on.

thanks for the detail Maverick. Billy alluded to him not being happy with his current promotional set up re letdowns. Did not know it was Boxxer.
