Danny Green has revealed to Fox Sports that plans are well underway to put on the biggest boxing promotion in Australia's history in 2010. As Green and Hopkins will be set battle it out for a world title, Vic Darchinyan will hopefully co-headline the event against Philippine world champion Nonito Donaire, and attempt to unify all 4 world title belts in the process. Darchinyan would put up his WBC & WBA titles, while Donaire would put up the IBF & IBO crowns. A winning result for either Australian boxer would be a momentous occasion and surely secure their boxing legacy. If Donaire is unable to be secured for the bout, they will likely target Coumbian world title holder Yonnhy Perez for Darchinyan instead, in an attempt to secure world titles in the Flyweight & Bantamweight classes for the first time since Manny Pacquiao did it. The numbers coming from this event could easily break all boxing records in Australia, from attendance numbers right through to PPV buy-rates.
