Worse than a Kat and Alfie scenario this one, but trawling through the depths of boxrec's schedule, it appears.
26th November in Rome, for the WBO title. Any more info anyone?

I was dis-appointed Cantatore wasn't able to kayo May last year.
May held, held, held everytime Cantatore rocked him.
I hope Cantatore kayo's Nelson, but I don't see it happening.
Nelson should have enough to win a decision.

I saw the Cantatore vs May fight and had Cantatore a clear winner, only the German points system (cough) made it a draw. Cantatore vs Nelson looked like a great fight then and is now. I hope Sky's new cherry picking strategy can include this fight if it ever happens.

That date looks good though...get it on in Sheffield.
Probably won't though, even if it does happen - abroad is much more likely.

With Nelson doing the commentary on his own fight...
I can see Nelson's career ending in a drab and controversial defeat here.

Yeah I know what you mean. It's like Nelson has given up on his boxing career, as he seems to put more effort into his commentary!?!
Why is the champ boxing away on shit bills all the time??
He should call the shots

Nelson's actual career has come to a standstill as he is waiting for a huge payday. In the interim, he doesn't want to lose - and can get much more money overseas than he can here.
However, he's one of the finest physical specimens you'll ever see - a really good trainer.

He has to be damn strong not to fall on his face with the weight of that tie knot in front of him...

Yeah would have been nice to see this on the undercard of Hatton - Maussa, cos at the minute we only have the main fight listed & no undercard fights named, i'm just hoping that Clinton Woods has a fight lined up for this date and maybe defend his belt on this bill (i hear that Clinton is back in training) so fingers crossed.

the italians won the purse bids and allegedly ain't promoting hatton v maussa.
how the hell would it end up on there.

Fair point mate but my main point was i'm expecting 1 or 2 more high profile or decent match ups to be on the undercard

carl thompson will hopefully be on the undercard.
would be great if haye v gurov was on it as well.
