Considering that both badr and rico are on the same card, it very probably means we are going to get badr vs rico III and Jamal vs benny II. They won't use both badr and rico for the same card unless they fight each other.
BTW isn't the virus under control in the netherlands?

The virus isn't under control anywhere unfortunately, as the numbers have been on the rise globally. You can't truly control it until there is a vaccine. They're talking about filling a huge arena with tens of thousands of people, which at this point can not be done safely anywhere on the planet. Anyone believing that is deluding themselves. But that's a discussion for the general chat, really.
As for Badr vs. Rico III. I'm not sure they'd go with that right off the bat with both fighters coming off long layoffs. Imagine Badr getting injured a third time. I wouldn't be against the matchup, just not sure we're gonna get it just yet.

yeah, but they will risk even more if they have badr fight someone else... what if he suffers an injury again or just loses? Then they lose the chance to make the money fight with Rico. Badr is on borrowed time at this point...
Nice to see Jamal there. 2 years without fighting is a lot.

If Badr can't get past Benny (or anyone else) should he really be fighting Rico in the first place?
I get what they're banking on, but the fight kinda loses its appeal if there isn't at least a little bit of build up to it.
