Well you shouldn't be considering its going to be the biggest boxing venue in Europe ever. Or maybe he shouldn't be allowed hometown advantage and the fight out to be made in some carnival tent in shitsville, Louisiana, just to placate the haters?
The traffic there is terrible and its not built to support a sporting event of this caliber.
Re: Its Official!!! Calzaghe Vs Kessler NOV 3!!
Its in Wales because Kesslers mob dont have the dough. One of the Danish boys posted ages ago how Frank was playing Palle like a second hand fiddle. He got what he wanted.

CC# 98 on me CFH for being smart enough to realize how many times this fights been official. :(
Sorry Mick, but can you link me to when this fight has been made official before? I confess, I have followed the saga with interest and think you're being dramatic and not actually reading what is published, the last one I remember was that they were awaiting contracts to fight in Denmark. Shit, I reckon you just don't like him eh? ;)
I like Joe I think hes a skilled fighter.
I have issues with the qaulity of his opposition just like I have it with RJJ, Pryor and Zarate.
But as a fighter I think hes talented.
It just so happens that I've been following Kess before he was champ and hes been my guy since then and will be for this matchup. Shit! I was riding Kess off for not having the balls to take the fight to Joe got through some of my posts.
I was pissed at both soo no hating here. Just happy that it appears like the matchups happening and heres hoping Kess can bring his A game that night and do what he does best.

I'm just calling it how I see it. If stating my facts or stating how I see a fight panning out is wrong then damn! click away. 8)
Clickedy click click click sonny jim. Now if you can give me five...well, I'll make it easy and say three, links to announcements that the Kessler v Calzaghe fight has been signed, sealed and delivered I'll CC you for a month, but until then I reckon you're manipulating the attention it gets to justify hating on my bwoy.

If they do like they do for the rugby events and close off some of the roads, the atmosphere in town should be absolutely mental. It's going to be like a rugby match atmosphere with the fans, and transport will be the last thing on my mind as I hit the pubs after a *hopefully* fantastic fight.

His biggest fight in 10 years and it's on PPV when he was fighting in front of (potentially) the whole of the UK in his last 4/5 fights.
How can that work if he's a FW fighter? Saturday must be the last Khan fight on ITV all the while he has the Setanta deal.
The plus side for Joe is if he gets battered hardly anyone will see it ::**
ITV OWN Khan as i understand it mate not Warren (He's just a promoter and i can't see ITV wanting to let their pride and Joy of the ratings f8ck off elsewhere-could be wrong but Khan is massive in terms of Marketing and he's a British born Muslim who proudly wears the Union Jack on his shorts,HUGE appeal in this day and age) ;) I'm Thinking he may be allowed to fight for ITV still while being promoted by Frank ???
Mick mate... Joe was More than Happy to go to Denmark and spank him in his own back yard ;)

Im pretty certain Kahn is on Sports Networks books not ITV, ITV would have to go through Mr Warren to get Kahn on ITV, i think Itv coverage has been pretty shit to be honest all the good fights on the card are never shown.
