    Is RJJ/Calzaghe lacking promotion?

    I remember months prior to the Hopkins/Calzaghe bout, there were posters up in almost every train station and billboard here in NYC promoting that bout. For some reason, i am not seeing the Jones/Calzaghe fight promoted in the same fashion. I have not seen any commercials either. Anyone else agree?

      The promotion is just gathering a little bit of pace over here in england, Problem is Joe C is from Wales so the atmosphere here in england isnt like the Hatton/Mayweather fight which was something else, The way the fight was promoted was brilliant Hatton was his usual self while Mayweather was totally into the whole thing, Thats why the fight did great over here and i doubt the Calzaghe/Jones fight would do that well over here.

      The fight been on setanta also has something to do with it here..
