Why, because the worlds largest website link is in town?

How many did they squeeze into Cardiff castle? Surely the most visually impressive venue Joe's fought at.

Just do it in Swansea at the new stadium with Nelson/Maccas on the undercard

Do you know how bloody cold it is going to be in November in South Wales? Surely a stadium fight is out of the question?

Switch it to St Petersburg, Lacy had 16,000 at the weekend I bet they could top that with Calzaghe in town.
Like that's ever going to happen, but it is within the realms of possibility now Calzaghe has got over his fear of flying! ;)

Well cardiff has to roof of course, but wouldn't the banks and banks of lights make up for the cold?

If not, just mix some radient heaters in amongst the lighting rig. Problem solved and it's guarantee no fornicating about during the entrances, they'd just run from the dressing room to the ring.

Good point, with the roof closed they could do it I guess - but not when there's rugby on!! Maybe it will slip a month, thing is
Showtime have earmarked that date for this fight...

What are the odds on it slipping to next year now. I knew 2 fights in 8 weeks for Calzaghe might be too much to ask.

Being cynical again but Warren & Calzaghe must have known there was a rugby match on.

My spidey-sense is telling me that there may some wailing and nashing of teeth in the offing.

There's many a slip twixt cup and lip......

Calzaghe has never had his biggest fights in Wales anyway.

I would have thought it was a bit optimistic to imagine Calzaghe selling enough tickets to need a stadium, to be honest.

Put Khan on the undercard with Thaxton/Gomez and have it at the MEN

tonyevs · Post by **tonyevs** » 10 Aug 2005, 18:48

Khan will be the one shifting the tickets so makes sense to have it closer to his base than Calzaghe who as far as I know has never sold out the IceRink.

:P
