    It seems crazy this all London affair takes place in Manchester.... let alone a Manchester arena!! This could have easily done a London football stadium. Anyone have an explination?

    England is ****ing freezing in November that's why it's not in a football stadium

    I believe the O2 is booked that night as well?

    That's what I was thinking. I was at Calzaghe vs Kessler and it was a great night.

    London is too fractured and unreliable. Manchester is the fight capital of the country. I'm a Londoner btw.
