Joe Calzaghe's on-off world title fight in Newcastle next month is now officially off.
Promoter Frank Warren has at last confirmed with the Newcastle Arena that the date of March 18 can now be released.
Instead Warren told Arena boss Colin Revel Calzaghe is to fight in Copenhagen on the same night.
I revealed in this column last week Warren had been talking with the backers of WBA world super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler but they only wanted a unification bout if it was in Denmark.
Calzaghe, the WBO title holder, has been dithering for a while now - he cancelled a world title fight in Manchester this month - and is obviously getting frustrated at how his unbeaten career is stagnating.
