Late last week Brian Magee´s defence of the WBA interim supermiddle title against Dane Rudy Markussen tentatively set for February 18 in Copenhagen was again pronounced dead – and it was never officially on to begin with only to be officially declared off by Kalle Sauerland, then revived and then off again.
However, this reporter have learned that as late as today there where still ongoing negotiations for Magee to face Markussen in Copenhagen February 18.
The parties are close, a TV deal is done, but there are still some details to be worked out and time is running out – so if there´s no agreement within the very immediate future the fight is indeed off.
