The way it was originally mapped out, in the second round Kessler/Froch is in Denmark and Taylor/Ward is in the US.
But in their negotiations to make Ward fight out of the country at least once, somehow Taylor is getting screwed into fighting abroad twice in a row?
At least it sounded like that's why Dibella was calling Taylor.
Very confused...

Originally posted by dstew View PostThose clips were from a September meeting in New York. You can tell because the clip says, "Two months later, in New York..." and Hershman and Goossen are discussing Ward's comments from his post-fight interview on 9/12, meaning the meeting occurred sometime after that fight.
Still I'll believe in a schedule change when I see it. I still think a lot of prestige will be lost since the PR manchine rolled out to start the tournament said that the organizers had thought of everything from possible replacements to heavy fines.
