    Before all the "**** HBO stuff. Just remember this forum has a hugely disproportional demand for the fight compared to that amongst a wider sample of fans. This is not a big fight at all in America.

    I think a nov. date in copenhagen make sence, when you think about it, it looks like Warren have a problem to make the fight in Wales in sept.

    No they don't need HBO or the US for this fight to come off... unless they want all the money they can get from TV revenue.

    As far as this not being a big fight in the US, probably there is some truth in that. There are plenty of US boxing fans who would like to watch Kessler fight Calzaghe in Europe . It doesn't matter where since most fans watch fights on TV anyway.

    ... Kessler by TKO round 10

    The problem with a Nov date/venue is the UK fight fan. I have just gotten back from Vegas having seen Hatton vs Castillo. I am not particularly a Hatton fan but I know when I am going to get a good fight and a good holiday out of a boxing event.

    If Kessler/Calzaghe were on in Denmark in November and Hatton vs Mayweather/Cotto or another big name were also on for Vegas or NYC in November then I know where I will be spending my money. Vegas here I come :happy

    I don't know how keen Calzaghe will be to fight Kessler in Denmark if he knows that Kessler will have the larger fan base.

    are you being serious? calzaghe-kessler will **** all over any fight involving hatton, cotto and mayweather. i wanna see a real tough competitive fight, not watch floyd shut out hatton or cotto with ease, and also because it will begin the demise of all these kessler fanboys that have turned up over the past year or so.

    Warren could afford It without HBO, theres more channels than HBO.

    He should go to Showtime Instead like he used to unless Calzaghe has some HBO 3 fight deal like Hatton.

    HBO prefer who Golden Boy wants them to prefer.
