The first of the remaining three wildcard picks is...
I found this part of the press release interesting. The 1st 4 top point getters are in, and then there's Johnny. So, they only really "needed" one wildcard pick.
Regardless, it's Matchroom's $$$, they run an awesome tourney and IMO they believe Johnny will make them more money than other choices. And I have to agree. And I also think the Johnny choice will give us our best chance of competing with an awesome Euro team.
Yeah, it kinda sucks for Oscar (and the others that were also ahead of Johnny). But all one has to do is look back at Matchroom's varied selection criteria to know there's always a surprise or two. They must believe they need that wiggle room to make the event better for all.
