What is the reason, or the point for cleverly fighting in LA surely he would gain more fans by fighting a bum in Cardiff?

Can't belive they were so poor to cancel the whole show and fight in America. Sold 4500 against karpency??? Think its gotta be looking towards profiling a fight against Hopkins or am I being sucked in to allegedly bullshit

Proper pain in the ass for those who have already shelled out their hard-earned cash.
From another perspective, it's important Cleverly fight in the U.S. if he wants bigger fights. No point him calling anyone out when he doesn't have much of a profile worldwide.
Still doesn't make it ok to promote a show and then pull the plug halfway through cos they've had a better idea/offer.

It's probably them wanting to try and get Nathan known in America as well. But tickets must have been poor to drop a whole show and all the costs associated with that.

That's why buying tickets on his shows promotions is a lottery! If your travelling you might post out trains hotels disgraceful!
