Just a quick question to all my fellow Joe Calzaghe fans.

How many of you plan on making the trip to the US of A to see Cal take on B-Hop?

If so do any of you have any idea how long you'll be going for and how much it will likely set you back. In addition how hard to you think it will be to get a ticket?

I have travelled down to Joe's last two fights and I am seriously contemplating going overseas with family and friends.

One problem however could be if it is held in Vegas. As i'm under 21 I would not be able to get in to the Casino's therefore unable to attend the event. (Am correct in saying this, aren't I?)

So I'm hoping for a New York showdown and the Garden would be ideal ;)

I'm almost certain you can get in the Arena and attend the event at what ever age, just not the Gambling and Drinking portion of the Casino's. Hope you can come over, and I hope you enjoy your trip and we American's treat you and your friends and family the best.

Props to those fans who are making the trip across the pond to cheer for your fighter.

Too bad you'll be coming here to watch him get outclassed by a superior specimen in Hopkins.

Mate, I will be there, sporting "Team Calzaghe" gear, for the weigh in, and if I cannot get decent tix, I'll happily watch it on the Big Screen. I will also be carrying a large "Flag of Wales" and I'll be drinking plenty of Guiness, and eating fish and chips. I'm going to have a good friend of mine from Leeds christen me a Brit for the weekend of the fight, we are going to have a ceremony, and toast the occasion with real English Tea. Sounds like a cracking plan mate

Lay off the fish and chips + English tea mind

You need some traditionally served Welsh lamb. Can't beat it

That won't happen I guarantee it.

The Welsh generally have a lot more respect for other nations. The majority of the booing you heard in the Hatton fight was English fans NOT Welsh fans.
