Kombinationen af boksning og Champions League fodbold i Parken den 19. maj vil gøre, at Mikkel Kesslers og Allan Green først går i ringen omkring midnat. Det skriver Ekstra Bladet.
Planen er, at der bokses to kampe inden fodboldoptakten, der begynder omkring kl. 20. Afhængigt af, hvornår fodbolden er overstået, vil de sidste 3-4 forkampe så blive bokset, inden Kessler og Green skal i aktion.
Nu er der jo kun 6 forkampe til Kessler vs Green, men hvis det værste tænkelige skulle ske ( München og Chelsea spiller uafgjort også efter forlænget spilletid ) så vil stævnet næppe kunne genoptages før midnat og så er der kampe med Kessler, Nielsen og Masternak og stadig 2 forkampe tilbage, god fornøjelse siger jeg bare, det kan jo komme til at vare til kl. 3-4 stykker.
Mon ikke det er for at bejle til amerikansk tv at de har gjort sit til at skubbe den til lidt senere, kan ikke huske om de rent faktisk fik solgt kampen, bare at en Sauerland regnede med at EPIX eller Showtime nok skulle byde ind.
Lucian Bute, the IBF super middleweight champion who is scheduled to fight in a unification fight against former WBC champion Carl Froch on May 26 in England, has developed an ailment in his foot that could put that upcoming date in jeopardy, Boxing Insider has learned.
Bute, who is currently training in Florida, developed a foot blister, which turned into a painful infection as of Saturday, and suffered discoloration that ran up his leg to the knee area. It prompted a trip to the hospital, and sources were not overly optimistic that he would be able to fight according to schedule.
Lucian Bute has been bothered by an infection in his foot since last Saturday. However, the condition is improving and InterBox and Lucian Bute are confident that Lucian will be able to fight according to schedule. A specialist/doctor has prescribed antibiotics to Lucian Bute to treat the infection. He will meet with doctors again later this week to ensure that the foot is healing according to schedule.
