Turki AlaLShikh Posted up of the Shortlist HE Fighters HE Potentially Wants to Place on The Undercard of Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford on September 13th in Las Vegas. Aside from Abdullah Mason and Christian Mascilla, The Other Fighters Aren’t Well-Known.

Turki’s Undercard: Fan Reaction

It’s Been A negative reaction from Fans to the List. Some Fans Suggest That Be Better Off Scrapping Thi List and Focusing On Two or Three Fights Involving Quality Fighters, IF Those Don’t Want to Spend The Money on A Loaded Undercard.

Dana White’s Event Playbook

The Opponent Selection for The Undercard has a Dana White Feel to It. What White has been Focused on The UFC has been focused on The Draw to Bring in The Fans, Saving Money Promising Promising Promising Promising Promising Prospects.

Fans On Social Media Are Complaining About Turki’s List Of Eight Fighters, Saying You’ve Never Heard Of The Vast Majority. Dana White is Promoting this Event.

The List

Christian Milli
Mohammed Alakel
Reito Tsutsumi
Justin Viloria
Emiliano Alvarado
JAMAR TALLEY
Abdullah Mason
Nishant dev

ALAKEK, DEV, Tsutsumi UnderWhelm

Of the obscure ones, I’ve Seen Alakel, Dev, and Tsutsumi. They underwhelmed Me, and I didn’t see Anything in Their Performances That Suggested them Win a World Title or Compete One. They We Average prospects. I Have My Doubts That Any Of The Prospects Will Be Useful Building Up.

Mason and Milli Stand Out Like Thumbs On This List Because They Are’re Actual Contenders On The Verge of Fighting World Titles. The Rest of The List is Unknown. Again, The Ones I’ve Seen Are To Be Useful to Build Up In The Way to The UFC Does Their Undercard Fighters.

Turki Revealed Earlier Today That Heel That The Canelo-Crawford Fight Was That Monumental That It didn’t require Loaded Undercard to Create Them To Watch It To Watch It. The Event is Being Streamed on Netflix. Turki Intends to Use The Undercard To Be The Opportunity to Be Opportunity On This Huge Event.

IF I Were Rich, I Wouldn’t Put These Fighters on My Undercard. Again, I’d Keep Mason and Masci, and Dump The Rest. Using the UFC Model for Boxing Is A Bad Idea, and I Wouldn’t Consider It Because It Would Take Away From The Event.

The World Will Be Watching Riyadh Season’s Canele Alvarez-Terence Crawford Fight of the Century on Netflix. And for That, I Want To Load With The Undercard Young, Hungry Fighters Who Deserve The Chance to the Chance Under the Bright Lights. These Are Some Names I Hope To See … pic.twitter.com/vnry0omfnh
