Just read that Calzaghe-Kessler is in trouble

Fuck, go to espn boxing, and they say that the date wanted(Sept.22) isn't available for HBO and that the two sides along with HBO haven't agreed upon the money dispersal.

Im shocked no Im stunned
What did I say all along about not believing it until their in the ring?

[Sugar_Shaw]

I was always suspicious about this fight actually happening but i still am dissapointed

[the wiz]

I wonder why the 22nd wouldn't be available? Looks like they have Barerra-Barrios on the 15th and that's pretty much their only fight that month. Hopefully this will get done

I don't think this is comming to fruition, a week ago there was a post on here that within 2 days there would be an announcement, nothing yet, might as well forget about this fight sadly.

[Tysonbruno]

Then why dont they pick another day

[Steelie]

Is either guy even in training yet?

F***, go to espn boxing, and they say that the date wanted(Sept.22) isn't available for HBO and that the two sides along with HBO haven't agreed upon the money dispersal.

I'm pretty sure that all concerned had agreed that the fight would actually be taking place in November to celebrate Mogens Palle's anniversary as a promoter.

Hmm if the promoters have agreed. Then I don´t see the big fuss about this. They will find a date if they really want the fight. Strange that if this is true, why didn´t they ask HBO first . Since they have HBO money in the calculations.

[Fire]

they are thinking of having the fight in Nov. if Sept. 22 falls through because HBO doesnt want to pay 5 milllion for the fight..

i think its more about the money than the date..

[Fire]

other than the date and money from HBO: the promoters and fighters terms is pretty agreed to i believe...

its HBO not the fighters keeping this deal from getting done..

might be the promoters fault if they cant get a deal done soon..

There's always something getting in the way....back in the day when the criminal gangs ran the sport this fight would have been made years ago.

Hope its not November thats a long way off and it wil be 8 month since Kessler last fought and 7 month for Calzaghe not bad to say they wanted Calzaghe fighting again in july i know he hurt his hand but November.
