^ just recently. I think they were trying to make LHW happen, and couldn't get the top guys on board.
CW II works for me, though. Esp since Tabiti is in. That's obviously a huge deal in terms of creating new USA fans. The guy even has a (small) chance to take it, IMO.
The semi's were originally slated for Feb/March, but the tournament came into some trouble when a couple of the investors stalled on their payments. Everything seems to be on track again now though, but it'll be April/May now.
Each weight will feature both semi's on the same card, the only one that's fairly secure is the 140's. Taylor vs Baranchyk for the IBF and Prograis vs Relikh for the WBA will land in Scotland in May.
I think they're still sorting the others. With Inoue vs Rodriguez and Tete vs Donaire, that may well land in Asia, as both the Filipino and Japanese people would both buy into that card. Then the Cruisers are an obvious match for Eastern Europe. But they may want to take one of their cards to the US, which would be a struggle as their arn't many names that can effectively sell into the US market.
Is there any update on the cruiserweight final. Hopefully there will be a heavyweight one this year with 8 top conrentirs like Joyce jablov dubois hrgovic. Also will there be ones at other weightd
I don't think Heavy would be that hard to do if you keep it in the minor leagues. Something like what Boxcino did where they put up journeymen and prospects. Surprised he thinks he can pull of a featherweight, though. 130 would probably be the best, though: Frampton, Santa Cruz, Valdez, Berchelt, Farmer, Diaz, Alvarado, Machado, Gonzalez, etc. A lot of names there currently.
I've heard nothing. I hope they continue, some fantastic final fights in those tournaments. Inoue vs Donaire, Bredis vs Dorticos, Taylor vs Prograis, and Usyk vs Gassiev.
