Anyone know/think the BBC are going to show the Cal/Jones or the Hatt/Mal fight a week after like they did Hatton/ Mayweather?

Macceranelli claimed to be the best crusierweight in the world - the NO 1

thats not in the month time frame.
Macca vs Banks is confirmed now. I wonder how many fights they will show on the SBO card, and what time it clashes with the Froch fight.
I wanna be able to watch x factor that night as well, could be a problem...............bring on the stick.

(Correct me if I am wrong)It just takes away from the achievements of actual British world champions. If Froch wins the WBC, well even Enzo and Cook are world champions...

It seemed ok when Cotto and Guzman were WBO champs.

It is OK, but I remember when we had Bruno/Lewis in Cardiff and then up to Manchester for Benn/EubankII the following week. An expensive but brilliant 8 or so days.

The WBO is either "legitimate" when held by a non-UK fighter, or a "bauble" when held by a decent UK fighter. It's a load of cock - all belts are meaningless - it's who you fight and who you beat that countsWBO belts are not legitimate full stop. I don't care who holds them.

WBO is bullshit. Foster Jnr vs Cook, what a pile of shit.

That sounds amazing

Very true

Woh! That must have been great. Two top level all British match ups in consecutive weeks.
