    Look, do you think more people will come watch this fight if it's in the UK than the number of people that showed up to watch Taylor-Wright? Seems pretty obvious that a bigger crowd will show up. So if the ticket prices are equal or higher and more people are going to show up, isn't getting a piece of the gate just as good, if not better, than a guaranteed $1 million? Assuming 35,000 people show and tickets are similarly priced compared to American venues, you are easily talking about a $15 million gate at least.

    If ticket prices are comparable to American ticket prices, DiBella would not be asking for $1 million guaranteed. It makes absolutely no sense...

    If the money was really out there for fights in the UK, like you seem to believe, more big fights would take place there and UK fighters would not try to establish themselves in the US...
    It's obvious that you are not reading the facts. Just spewing hate towards Calzaghe for some reason.

    DiBella gets a percentage of the gate AFTER it makes $5 million. Maybe that's more than 1 million, maybe not. He is not willing to find out.

      If Taylor is content with people knowing he is a paper champion, thats up to him.

      If he doesn`t want to fight the best, and is content relying on gift decisions to win him fights because he is the corporate fighter, great for him.

      Dont expect anyone to remember any of his borefests in 10 years time. I dont know many people who chat about Ottke's fights.

        Actually Calzaghe is the real paper champ, not Taylor!

          Taylor has to fight either Calzaghe or Pavlik. If he falls through with both, his career is done.

            Well actually most boxing fans believes his career is done already.

            Even if Taylor never fights again he's done more in a short amount of time then Calzaghe has done over the last 13 years with his paper belt.

                  ah yes, the fight you claimed you watched between reid and calzaghe, and when asked where you watched it, you didn`t have an answer.

                  I still have no idea what this test is or what you are talking about...

                  I enjoy these little debates though...i like to feel superior .

                    The test was for the Reid fight, you said I never seen the fight, then when I was ready to test you about the fight, you just ignored my post after post. Meaning that you actually have never seen the fight. Liar!
