[Versez]

I Was completely shocked when i saw the card this week, i know i'm slow to inform myself.

Artur Beterbiev vs. Dmitry Bivol 2 Card preview :​

So many good fights, so many gifh that could be main-event in a non Saudi Arabia card.

Crazy shit.

Ortiz vs Madrimov, lava against ice. Like them or not the Saudi are making things happen.

Not just in modern boxing history but probably in all of boxing history. There are promoters still around today that've been in the game for 50+ years and even they can't remember a fight card as stacked as this one. The Saudis can easily afford to assemble it. In the future we'll probably see cards that are even better.

These types of fight cards used to be pretty normal back in the day, hopefully we'll see more of them.

If you back to the really old days, you'd often have multiple ATGs fighting on the same night.

That first poster is insane! Lennox, JCC and The Hawk on the same card? Unreal! Would've loved to have seen that.

To answer the thread question, it's one of the best boxing cards I have ever seen in my years as a fan. I'm fuckin pumped!

Certainly the best boxing card in modern times. But people have to remember there were cards where guys like Charley Burley, Henry Armstrong, and Sugar Ray Robinson were all on the same card along with a bunch of other high profile names (Fritzie Zivic, Barney Ross, etc). The late 30s early 40s probably had many cards as good or better than this one. That was the golden age of boxing.

Looks like Dubois Parker is in jeopardy now allegedly....
If so, card took 2 pretty big hits. So wouldn't be the greatest of all time.

Right, but this is stacked from top to bottom with 7 intriguing fights. With Dubois out now it's less intriguing but still an unbelievable card.

I’m around the corner for the event and could get decent seats for $100 but I went to the first fight and it left a bitter taste in my mouth because I thought Bivol won it.

Personally I don’t think the card is THAT good. Big names yes, good match ups ? Only a few.
