"We have been informed that both Oscar de la Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions and Don King of Don King Productions have already agreed to fight in mid-December, and therefore the purse bid scheduled for next week will be avoided," explained Sulaiman.

According to World Boxing Council President Mauricio Sulaiman, the ordered fight between WBC heavyweight champion Bermane Stiverne and mandatory challenger Deontay Wilder will avoid a scheduled purse bid on October 1st - because Sulaiman was informed that Oscar De La Hoya of Golden Boy Promotions [for Wilder] and Don King [for Stiverne] have reached an agreement to stage the fight in December. The bout will take place on December 13th or December 20th on American soil

Put Floydie on the program too. That way there'd be a card with Chicken Legs and The Ducker on it. HA

Danm it. Was hoping it would go to purse bid

Lets see what Wilder is made of. Stiverne is no joke. Should be a good one.
