A double-header would be perfect. AJ vs Martin and Takam vs Parker. They did it in Brooklyn a few months ago with Wilder and Martin. Why not again? Duco won't lose money, and the fight deal could be tied to the title fight, which would be huge if AJ won.

True but it's already sold out and adding parker takam doesnt help there when theyd fill christchurch themselves. Might be complicated with a duco hearn et al co promotion not to mention ppv costs.

True. Scratch the double-header. Here's the Takam vs Povetkin fight:

So the April fight in Chch has been cancelled because the IBF offered an eliminator fight instead? Wonder who the Chch opponent was meant to be?

Welcome aboard, Beefstew! Please post often! Yep, the CC opponent was called off. I think Stu was tossing up opponents, but didn't want to commit until the IBF made a decision. Least that's what he told me on his facebook.
