EDIT: NVM. Degsy covered what I wanted to say on page 5.
Which bit , the definition of Limey or the comments on Woods!! I'm thinking it was the putdown re Limey!!
It's a little disloyal, but in some ways its good that Woods is out of the equation if Joe has only got two more fights, the winner of Dawson Tarver (IF he beats Bernard) would be far better for his legacy, as would fighting Kelly
Feel really sorry for Clinton, he lost the chance for a huge fight with Calzaghe and will likely retire now.
I dont think that fight would ever have happend, but who knows. I agree, think he will retire his post fight interview posted on bbc led me to believe that
So what it means nothing to him, he's not english, neither of his parents are english their Welsh/Itaian, being born in Limey land means nothing. I just saw the pre show with Calzaghe Hopkins on HBO last night, tell us then limey, why did Calzaghe say he was Welsh and made the point of saying the best fighter is from Wales not England, watch the show, limey. I was laughing my ass of watching it last night on HBO. You english limies are getting pathetic, oh lets pretend Calzaghe is engilsh caus our own fighters(woods hatton froc etc) are such jokes.
Limey was a pejoritive term used for the British Navy if you are going to post an invective comment, try and come up with a derogatory noun that works as 'limey' technically includes the Welsh. Ironically, the Welsh have a wonderful term for the english 'Saes' which is the welsh for Saxon and normally used in a derisory manner.
You will notice I will not insult your culture back, as unless you are descended from a tribe of plains Indians, using your own tautological method you cannot be an American; in fact you refer to Woods, Hatton and Froc as "our" fighters so you may infact be English????
Should have stayed in school old chap
Most Americans never come and fight in the UK, a notable one that did so in recent years was Jeff Lacy. That went well. Lewis beat all the Americans in the states. Hatton actually won most of his fights in the US, he only lost to the p4p#1. Your argument is not supported by the facts.
Yeah, speaking of Witter, remember when he came to the USA and beat Hopkins? Oh no you don't, because Hopkins is an over-protected, overrated fighter who bottled out of the fight. It's kinda funny, UK fighters get slagged off for not fighting in the US, then when Witter tries to the US doesn't seem too keen on the idea.
You're just another one of the posters on here who likes to insult Brit fighters, but now that even people like you are starting to accept that Calzaghe is a good fighter, you're modifying your argument to only criticise the English. If Calzaghe wins, people like you will consider him Welsh and continue to slag off the English. If he loses, you will consider him British and slag off all Brits.
your my new boxing scene sense talking hero.
witter would have smashed hopkins, and when he does get the chance he deserves with a big fight stateside all these american clowns will be kissing his arse...................................

Lol.
Gavin Rees was WBA Champion, it doesn't mean he was any good!
Tarver was obviously the better fighter but he is so overrated, put him against class and he is shown up. The RJJ he fought was a washed out one, Johnson is a good fighter but workmanlike. His big test against the smaller Hopkins he was found wanting.
Even though he won last night there is nothing I can see that says to me he is anything special.
As for Woods, he is an slightly above average fighter in a consistently poor division.

Ok i stand corrected like i said i wasnt sure. I hadn't sen the HBO stuff.
I will say this tho that i know Enzo C and his brother realised a record or at leats tried to realse a record for Englands World Cup campaign. How funny is that !?
Don't see how its glory hunting, hatered of the english is well spread but no one has a probably with an englsh individual in any british part that i have ever expereinced.
Im not sure his mother is welsh either, i could well be wrong.
