Why fight in the USA in front of 10,000 paying fans when you can fight in the UK in front of 50-100,000 paying fans? You can always broadcast the fight live at a time to make the American TV networks happy.
    And yet fights in American generate more money for some reason. Who knows...

        Only if on PPV. As long as the fighters agree to fight in the middle of the night in the UK they can still broadcast the fights live to a PPV audience in America.

          Here's where I disagree. Nobody wants to watch a superfight at 3p.m. here. Especially casual boxing fans. I hope to god it's you ****s watching in the a.m. then me in the afternoon, although your situation sounds far worst. Nothing like getting pumped up all day and cracking the booze for the undercards, watching the main event, and going off to the bar afterwards to look for slags(great word).

              So when it seems as if Calzaghe won't be fighting Pavlik, you complain about Calzaghe. Then when it seems as if the fight might happen, rather than be pleased...you complain about Calzaghe

              If I wanted something to happen, and then it seemed like it wasn't going to happen, I'd be annoyed. But then if it things changed and it seemed like it was going to happen after all, I'd be happy, whereas it seems like you're still annoyed.

              Complaining about someone changing their mind though? It just seems as if you're majorly reaching for another reason to dislike the guy. I don't like Mayweather much, but if he fights Cotto you won't find me making threads complaining about him changing his mind...I'll just be happy that the fight is gonna happen.

                Seriously, no-one has EVER expressed an interest in purchasing my semen.
                I got an email a while back with the subject 'wank your way to Glastonbury'. Apparently there is a shortage of ***** donors in Ireland, so they were offering free tickets to the festival to anyone who made a 'donation'.

                I considered it but in the end decided not to. Wank for Jay Z? Never again...

                  Yeah. It is true. He said that. There is no argument that it's not true. It is true. He's full of ****.
