Joe Calzaghe and Ricky Hatton to square off in battle for Christmas No 1
10.11.08 - By Mark Pickering: British boxing icons Joe Calzaghe and Ricky Hatton could land the biggest hits of their career in December as they trade the squared circle for the recording studio to battle for the highly coveted Christmas No 1 spot. While Calzaghe’s future remains unclear after his stunning victory over Roy Jones Jr. in the earlier hours of Sunday morning the 36-year-old will spend some welcome downtime recording a track with Welsh rockers the Stereophonics..
The Newbridge southpaw’s dad and trainer Enzo, 60, will write the song while his glamorous model girlfriend Jo-Emma, 27, will be the face of the music video.
Musical maestro Enzo and co. will have it all do as Ricky Hatton, who’s busy preparing for his Las Vegas showdown with Paulie Malignaggi on 22 November, has enlisted the services of Oasis brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher.
The Mancunian trio will be looking to KO Team Calzaghe with Hi Ho Ricky Hatton, a take on the 1967 hit Hi Ho Silver Lining.

Think it's fairly reliable, though surprised Joe would finally embrace the limelight like that. To me is screams retirement, and showbiz stuff ready for promoting and such. Oasis and Stereophonics are major artists, serious shit.
Does Ricky have his own show in the UK? I knew he's done a bit of stand up alright but this is news to me! Ricky is so popular I could actually see him having a hit, especially with the Gallagher boys involved. As much as I love Joe and Enzo I can see their song crash and burn but it would be worth it just to see Enzo with a load of bling, surrounded by bitches throwing a few shapes in a music video, lol!
Yup, few times a week for a few weeks, stopped for now.

Hatton on his UK tv show and in a vid/blog spoke of wanting to do an xmas vid but schedule wise with Paulie might not be able to. Seems he can and Oasis would be down. So that ones true for me. Plus he's mates with Joe, it may bring out a competitive side lol.
As for Joe, well Enzo writing, Welsh stereophonics, Joe more enjoying the limelight now if you watch some vids. I actually think there's a good chance of this based on all that. Will have to see though.

Man I can't believe this was Joe's idea, Enzo has to be behind it!! Remember Enzo with the guitar in 24/7? I swear I thought he nearly struck a horn when he started to play it! There's no way it's ever gonna be a hit!
I doubt there's any truth to the rumours anyway. Joe isn't one for the limelight and it would be the last thing on Ricky's mind with the fight against Paulie so close. Oh and I nearly forgot, neither band have released a decent album in years so they'd be better off worrying about their own careers!
Cringe. Everyone knows that X-factor or a shit Cliff Richards song will be number 1 if not then Hatton more popular over here and kids will buy his song.
Enzo is gonna be like p.Diddy all up in the video
He aint gonna give Joe a chance to shine...
Anyway im gonna buy both cds from woolworths and use them has drink mats...
haha, I think everyone would agree with all that's been said. I dunno will wait and see the tunes. It's xmas and can forgive one of tunes like this tbh. Stereophonics and Oasis rarely release shit, so I'd say they won't be awful tracks.
Enzo writing the song though, christ. Kelly Jones must be shitting it (the lead singer of Stereophonics). How weird is that btw, Kelly being another rare man called Kelly....(Pavlik). And sur name Jones.
I know. Their probably realistic about that though, xmas is increasingly a queue of such tunes in the top ten, can be good fun. I hate the xfactor shit normally. Hatton has more fans so he'll do well with Oasis defo. Calzaghe and Stereophonics a clear distant back runner, and god knows what else will be around. Feels weird just talking about it. Enzo's right it lol.
lol, good ole Enzo. I just hope Joe doesn't make a show of himself. Yeah you expect this from Ricky, and he can pull off all that type of humour, but Joe...
This is suicide.
Nothing beats the X Factor for the number 1. Simon Cowell completley monopolised the christmas charts with his show. How long does it run for 3 months? Course millions of people are gonna buy the winners single, after theyve invested 3 months viewing in the person.
