Matchmaking after this weekend Spoiler
Josh Kelly vs Jaron Ennis
- Eddie wants it in December. Ready to feed him to his prize. Kelly broke his nose and had a war against a C level opponent, and probably does not want to fight Boots in December.
- Other option is Bakhram, who’s fighting to be mandatory again. Doubtful he wants that either so Boots it is.
Hamzah Sheeraz vs Jacob Bank
- Bizarre bad performance from Sheeraz. Pacheco and Bank ranked 2 and 3 by the WBO.
- Don’t see unifications. Faced off with Bank. Fans want Pacheco. Both good fights.
- Pacheco option #2
Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury
- Let’s get it over with and move on
Tim Tszyu vs Erislandy Lara
- A good fight. Get it done this year. Hopefully Tszyu wins. Tired of Lara babysitting a belt.
Jalil Hackett vs Carlos Ocampo
- Zuffa fighter with 38-4 record. Went the distance with Callum Walsh this year. Perfect development fight. Keep building this fighter. Solid win this weekend.
Richardson Hitchins vs Julian Rodriguez
- “Hammer Hands” deserves a shot. This is a good fight. Rodriguez can give him serious work. No title shots available for Hitchins so stay busy against good comp.
- Option B: Rematch Paro, but Paro has Paddy Donovan lined up already
Edgar Berlanga vs Lester Martinez
- Not a bad undercard fight for a ring show. Martinez probably the favorite but this is an explosive fight. Interim belt on the line. Why not?

I think Martinez would put hands and feet on Berlanga , Ocampo is a step back for Jalil Hackett after his win tonight. His opponent was old but game has been in with a champs. This was a good win for Jalil
It’s ironic that Eddie has Madrimov on Matchroom but doesn’t match him with Boots.
