Danny Green fancied a little earner first

Danny Green, who claims he couldn't go through with his fight with Markus Beyer in Germany on February 28 due to an injured hand, will defend his interim WBC super-middleweight crown in Perth on Sunday, March 21.
Promoter Justin Manolikas said he would name the opponent next week.
Green has postponed his mandatory rematch with Beyer - for the WBC title proper - until May or June.
Just fancied a little earner first I assume.

Incidentally, allegedly is now claiming on his website that he was willing to allow Calzaghe to challenge Beyer - but in April! How convenient. Calzaghe could easily have stepped in for the injured Green and challenged Beyer on February 28. He's training for a fight on February 21 in Cardiff.

A bit of vintage SN really.

On the SN site it is saying that Beyer turned Calzaghe down!!!!!
