he did not elaborate any further

but again , we all know Warren and this could include clauses/rematches/selling Kessler into slavery

And one strange fact about the column was the fact that Warren said One of Kessler's recent wins was over Omar Sheika ,who Calzaghe knocked out in 2000

Yeah thats true, frank warren likes his boxers to have home advantage, and its not always fair. Why should one boxer do all the running, flying over to a diffrent country, having to shake off jet-lag and then going into the ring being intimidated by the crowds booing? I remember a few years back wayne alexander was euro champ and had to make a volentry against a lad frm germany cnt remember who, and the other lads camp won the bids the fight was set to take place in germany, alexander ended up pullin out, not because of injery but because warren insisted that alexander had to pay a certain percentage of his purse to him, because he was fighting on somebody elses bill, and then alexander would have his trainers fees to pay, and living expenses while in germany. So he pulled out because he would of ended up losing money 4 fighting and thats just wrong.
Jetlag Denmark to Wales is a couple of hours flight?? also surely the travelling is at least a couple of weeks in advance.
