    Just read an article over at the scene. Aparently Monaco is not available for the 27th Nov so they may be going to Helsinki. I personally think this venue sucks for both brits and Germans. What you think?

    this is just ******ed...

    is boxing even popular in Finland??

    If i was a froch or abraham fan I would make a point of not travelling to this fight. See how funny it is to **** around your fans when your boxing the head off each other in front of a few hundred people....

    I don't care where it is, if it's outside of the UK. I'm not going. I'm skint but as my travel isn't refundable, I'm going to Monaco anyway.

    Why is Moncao unavailable on the 27th? Is boxing barred on that date?

    Helsinki is a joke for 27th Nov.

    Last time they tried to stage a professional boxing bout in Helsinki it ended up with Valuev declining to fight Chagaev and stealing the belt at the table. Why would one ever stage a professional boxfight again in that **** jurisdiction?

    To be fair Chagaev does have Hepititis and wouldn't be allowed to fight here, **** organisation by the promoters not sure we can blame the Finns.

    Is Helenius promoted by Sauerland? If so , that could be some of the thinking there. Stick him on the undercard. How bloody cold would Helsinki be in the end of november?
