Hatton/Mayweather - Calzaghe/Kessler. November - Same card.

[Leeroy]

If Hatton could ever tie up the 'loose ends' with ******(Not that I expect him to)can you imagine a card billed;Hatton vs Mayweather and then Calzaghe vs Kessler......

It would be THEE biggest card in the history of boxing,both in the states,AND in Europe!

I don't know if you could stage it at a venue capable of holding that many people - the gate would be filled,the atmosphere electric,and the PPV/Television audience record-breaking.

Hold it at Wembley, maybe?

[Leeroy]

come on. things like that don't happen in boxing. you should know by know that nobody in boxing actually cares about boxing.

It's not logical because both parties are capable of pulling big numbers - but if you think about the possibilities,not only would it be a super-fight - but an EVENT.

You don't get events in boxing anymore - those days are lost with Mike Tyson,and the Las Vegas days.

Wembley would be the ideal location.

those two fights would make it well worth the PPV price. I dont know anyone that wouldnt be watching to be honest.

It's good to dream isn't it?

Kessler alone would pull his own Danish fans,and then Calzaghe/Hatton being home-town boys.........Massive audience.

The Americans' would tune in because of Mayweather - a 24/7 show,identical,maybe with a little twist,like HBO had with DLH/Mayweather would promote this fight perfectly in the states.

boxing is never gonna go back to the days when ali-frazier was bigger than the superbowl.
Like I said - it's good to dream:lol:

[ChuckYoungblood]

The thought made me smile - that would truly be something - and really great for the sport. It's a nice dream, but nah..

Would NEVER happen. A promoter knows each as a main event sells out. Both don't even need a good undercard. That's the way business is unfortunately. Calzaghe-Kessler will thankfully have all the Welsh fighters on it. Thankfully guys like Pryce, Maccranelli etc are quite good.

[Leeroy]

The perfect marketing strategy,on ******'s behalf would have Kessler/Calzaghe FIRST,and then Mayweather/Hatton as the main-event - This way you would have the American audience viewing Kessler/Calzaghe - experiencing some British boxing/atmosphere.(Would really open some mainstream American fight fan's eyes up)

I think the Brits are the best crowd in the world with Puerto Ricans and Mexicans coming in second and third.

[IrnBruMan]

AWESOME card, but can't see it happening...these 2 fights will take place separately to each other...damn shame too

[SteveO]

Its sad hearing that literally billions of people watched Ali-Foreman and Ali-Frazier III, and only a shade over 2 million bought the Mayweather-ODLH fight. If boxing was the way it should be, 200 million would have seen that fight. For free. On ABC.

Wembley would be the ideal location.In the ideal world it would but its the middle of summer in the UK now and it has not stopped fucking raining for the last three weeks,lol. In november at wembely in the winter,never! Mayweathers little stump wold drop of in the cold and NO NO NO like ive heard in other posts Wembley DOSE NOT HAVE A ROOF.....!
