HBO is where the doughs at
Kessler-Calzaghe doesn't have an American TV audience
HBO have given Calzaghe two dates for 07
FW has said regardless of the opponent Calzaghe can sell 20,000 plus at the millenium stadium. And regardless of the opponent (however disappointed/disgusted boxing nuts are with the fight) people in Britain will still tune in to watch (casual fans don't care, they can be sold any old opponent). If the Americans tune into watch - which apparently they will against an American like Manfredo - Calzaghe will raise his profile in the USA which will set up a PPV special against Jermain Taylor later on in the year...and everyone earns $$$ happily ever after...there you go, simple as
So I think one of the points is
It's the American's fault Kess-Cal aint happening
Lacy (new Mike Tyson, new American superstar), Kostya (Legend, fights in USA) and McCllean (American superstar come to bash Benn up) - all had American interest.
