    Because MSG, the only logical place for the fight in the states, is being used a week before for Cotto-Clottey.

      Truthfully - the reason America wasn't choosen is because America has been denouncing European fighters for the last half decade so European boxing has turned its back on mainstream american boxing.

      I've said time and time and time again if America doesn't start embracing foreign fighters like we do American and also in turn have American fighters cross the pond to fight over here rather than staying over there & fighting in their own backyard America will loose itys grip on mainstream boxing.

      This has now happened.

      I did say this and I'm not disrespecting Americans here so don't take it that way but this is the unfortunate truth. An example would be Taylor's reluctance to fight Froch over here as well as American fans proclaiming "Who's Froch?" & "Froch must come here!" & "Taylor doesn't need to go to Europe!"

      These are the reasons. Simply put if you keep telling people they must come to you sooner or later people will find somewhere else to go.

      The truly sad part is for every person that reads this post I made & understands it there's another 50 who haven't so the trend will continue much to the annoyance of so many Americans
      Very good post. I'd rep you if it meant anything. (Got -10k points LOL).
