    IDK if I buy that. I mean Hatton & Calzaghe make the people turn out in droves. You say they are the only 2 but guess what? Theyre pretty much the only 2 good ones. All the other guys pretty much lose against top comp. I think boxing may not be huge but good boxing is and these are 2 guys they know from the Hatton fights. Khan will be huge too. Its just the good boxers.
    You're right, it's the good boxers - the names. Ultimately, Floyd Mayweather isn't a name over here and neither is Manny Pacquiao but most crucially they're not British. Most people barely know who Oscar De La Hoya is but Carl Froch could sell out a stadium in Nottingham.

        Now that is funny and sadly, probably true but again, I think that this is the 1 fight that could be the exception. Shoot, boxing isnt even nothing in the US but everyone is saying that this fight could possibly break the record. Add to that the "event" it would be and I think people would turn out just to turn out. I heard alot of the UK people said that half the people who were at Floyd's training session didnt even know who he or Roger were. I think that maybe would Floyd-Pac would be like. People would just show up because they know that its a mega event for alot of people who arent even in the US. However, you have convinced me though. I want it where someone would really appreciate it. That means either in Manilla or in the US. Vegas or Texas Stadium

          It would be huge!

          Especially if Ricky and Kahn fight on the undercard.

          The commentators ought to be Frank Bruno, Nigel Benn, and Naseem Hamed.
