    If this fight was in wales their would be over 50 thousand, instead joe goes to america, thousands of his fans follow him, but the legend that is bernard hopkins whos always ****ing on about how great and better the usa is, cant even get fans to turn out and support him

    No... unlike the U.K we are not as supportive of our fighters. You will never get 3000 fans from the U.S to travel to foreign lands for support...EVER. Yeah it's ****ed up but it is what it is.

      britain barely a step up from the third world? ummm...... you do realize even their money is worth more than ours (if you're american like me) right?

      i've been to london once and it's a pretty nice place. different but nice.

      aside from being called an idiot and a tourist for not knowing how to use the escalator by one old man , everyone over there were very nice.

          The fight should have been in Atlantic City. B-Hop has more East Coast fans than he does anything else. I went to the B-Hop vs Tarver fight and it was super packed because Philly is so close to Atlantic City. I would have went to this fight if it was in Atlantic City or NY. Also it would have been cheaper for more Calzaghe fans to come over for the fight if it was in Atlantic City or NY. ****** move by the powers that be!!!
