In Wales at least.


I went out to watch the Wales-South Africa Rugby match this afternoon and everybody was talking about the Calzaghe-Jones fight tonight.
Even people who are not big boxing fans.


It was the same for the Hatton-Mayweather fight .


It proves if big fights are made the public will watch.



Is this the same in the rest of the UK

When I hear casual boxing fans talking about a fight these days it always puts a smile on my face. I'm the first one that turns around saying "boxing fan then are ya?" hoping for an in depth conversation lol.

It's nice to see some stuff in the papers too but it's usually always shit you already know. If it was not for Saddo's I'd go fucking insane I'm tellin ya.
