Be a mess if Arum ships this fight out of the state.
He's confirmed he has booked several other venues if he fails today.
They have failed already at the end of oct.

Sorry mate, I'm slow on the uptake.
Failed at what?

Margarito's eye failed him at the meeting to grant him a license to fight at the Madison Square Garden. They have requested a second meeting today in NYC to try again. Bringing in some top surgeon.
But in the meantime Arum has since booked several venues in other parts of America as a serious back-up because they think the NYC will fail to grant him a license again.
Brandon Rios vs John Murray is chief undercard fight.
I saw a trend for a lot of people re-booking flights for this card, after the original Froch vs Ward got postponed. Not to mention friends and supporters of Murray's whom perhaps have shelled out for flights and hotels for the December 3rd fight.

I feel very sorry for any Brit fans who have shelled out for a trip to NYC for this. I would be royally p!ssed off. Especially since Arum doesn't really seem to give a crap.

The fight could be moving to Texas, he's been licensed there....what as absolute debacle.
Arum and the NYASC take a huge dump on boxing fans
