    Should it be in Oakland, Ca. or in Nottingham, England?

    What do you think?

    More intrigued: As i stated after the Kessler - Ward fight. If they should meet in the semifinal, in all fairness i should be in Denmark, but will Ward travel..............?

    And don't you think, Dirrell wants to fight Froch in US...............

    Whoever has the most points..... Home field advantage just like the playoffs.

    So because Kessler was willing to go to US in the first fight, he should go there again, because Ward took advantage and has more points then........?

    Of cause the same situation Dirrel vs. Froch.........

    I think there shouldn't be a home field advantage for any fighter in the semifinals.
    Vegas is pretty neutral

    I don't think EU-fighters thinks Las Vegas is neutral...........
    but anyway a possible rematch, Kessler vs. Ward, Dirrel vs. Froch or Dirrell vs. Abraham could be in trouble..............

    also the way the home field advantage has played out, it's only fair that ward fights away at some point and takes a loss the way everyone else has. otherwise the tournament doesn't find out who the best is, just who fought at home the most.

    I agree. I think that whoever Ward meets in the semis he needs to go there for it.

    It is already very unfair that he hasn't gone overseas because we have seen home advantage be very important when the level of these boxers is so close.
