    its highly professional to offer 5 mill, hten invite hte counterpart in negotiation to britain and then withdraw the offer .. thats proper and professional business for you then???


    first we heard the fight was made for september, and apparently rumours about palle wanting it in nowember.. actually no specific date has been mentioned e so far, so it the difference in a september to november fight could be as small as one week..
    theres 4 weeks in october

      [QUOTE=SHB;2423092]What offer was made for 5 million? Warren himself admitted the sums didn't add up for that in the UK. The only offer mentioned by Palle (or mentioned publicly for that matter) was the $3m plus half the gate. An offer I should add that only a fool would have turned down for, effectively, an unproven contender.

      Palle on the other hand posted publicly an open offer for $5m net from September onwards in Copenhagen. This has now been accepted for September by Calzaghe/Warren. Clear terms and clear acceptance. You would think that if this was a genuine offer, and not some feeble attempt to garner some publicity for his fighter by using Calzaghe's name, Palle would have jumped at the chance for this to happen. Sadly nothing seems to be happening, for whatever reason..

      Palle makes the rest of the corrupt promoters in the sport look like bastions of professionalism. He should be drummed out of the sport at the earliest opportunity.[/QUOTE

      warrren made the offer in his newspaper column.. it was widely discussed at east-side-boxing aswell.. and no, the offer of 3 mill with danish tv rights was made via the media.. the offer of 3 mll was only made public after palle went to see warren, and stated that the offer of 5 mill was now 3 plus gates..

      those are the facts..

      other posters on other boards, have stated palle is currently in the hospital, he is mid 70´s with diabetis, maybe thats why he hasnt answered warren

      kessler didnt ust call out calzone, he called out every champion, he even wrote a letter to lacy challenging him previou to his fight with joe..

      and yes of course, he is riding calzones back into the us, where joe´s name is as known as the name bush..

        If I could understand what you typed I'd respond. All I saw was some sort of justification being it's being discussed on a website full of plankton, idiots and Danes. Well that'll convince anyone.

            Yeah right, Mundine blows. He got beat by sven ottke, and sven ottke didn't need the crooked judges to ko mundine's ass.

              I don't think Mundine would beat either of them, but he was flogging Ottke easily until he copped one on the temple. It can happen to anyone. Besides he's definitely improved a lot since then. Remember he was a late starter due to his rugby league career. Now having said that I wouldn't mind either fighter giving him a beating and shutting his big mouth.

                Yeah, but Calzaghe kessler need to fight before that mundine comes into play. I don't care about Mundine, he is hype.

                    How arrogant to re-arrange this bout to coincide with your 50th promoting anniversary. Kessler and his people have been pushing for this fight, and now they are messing around.

                    Take home message: Sort it out, people!
