WILLIE Limond is looking on the positive side after his dream of fighting at Madison Square Garden was postponed due to an injury sustained by Joe Calzaghe.
Limond was due to face American-based Ukrainian Dmitriy Salita in the famous New York venue on 20 September on the undercard of Calzaghe's bout with Roy Jones Jr, but a wrist injury has forced the whole show to be put back to November.
Limond said: "I'm very disappointed but the delay also gives me time to prepare more thoroughly for the light-welterweight division."
Although it hasn't been decided what title Limond and Salita will contest for, it will be for a vacant light-welterweight division belt.
