[mrhicks]

americans literally have excuses for every world class american boxer that loses to a britt.. or where ever that figher may be from....

cheese and rice...lets cool out on the new world order of dominance for a min .. the cold war is over

[kayjay]

Are you really dominating boxing?
How many world champs do you have?
Real linear world champs?

When you consider Britain has a poulation of just 65 million compared to the US 300 million it is you who is seriously underachieving.

Tell me how many champs you got?
Heavyweight : No ..........Wlad Klit is Champ
Cruiserweight: No ............Mormeck is Champ
Light Heavy Weight : NO........ Erdei is Champ
Super Middle :NO Calzaghe ...............is champ
Middleweight: YES ...........Pavlik is champ well done!!!
Light Middle: Yes ........Corey SPinks well done
Welter :Yes ..................Floyd is Champ for now well done
Light Welter: NO ..................Ricky Hatton is champ
Lightweight :No ................Cuban Guy called Casamayor
JR LIGHTWEIGHT : .........PINOY Manny Pac
and so on....................

So right now we have 2 champs regarded the best in their division.
Hatton at 140
Joe Calzaghe at 168

You have 3.

So genius are you really dominating?

You can't argue against facts, but my ****** countrymen will.

Still waiting for Joe to fight one legendary fighter, or one pound for pound fighter, or one fighter who has been in the p4p list, or even a world class fighter in america.

joe is the champion. why the **** does he need to go anywhere. if you want his title you fight where the champion tells you to. easy as that.

WBO super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe, 35, told Sportinglife that he plans to retire when the time comes, and not end up like former four-time heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield, who continues to return to fight at 45-years-old, despite being well past his prime. Calzaghe found it hard to watch Holyfield's performance as he lost to WBO heavyweight champ Sultan Ibragimov last weekend. [details]

Yes Joe, we know you won't end up like Holyfield, we know you will never end up an all-time great champion like Holy. We know this already.

[Brother Blues]

Unlike Ricky Hatton,who I have much respect for...I have little for Calslappy.
Hatton is bad enough to lay his cards on the table,in the USA.Which is why should he win,he will have much respect as a true champion.
Calzone will never end up like Holyfield...a true,champion...respected by all.

BTW...has there ever been a true champion from Britain?...one that was regarded by the world a THE Champion?

Someone like an Ali,a Foreman,a Sugar Ray,Robinson or Leornard...a Hagler,a Hearns,Frazier,Louis,a prime Tyson,a Pryor,Johnson,and so on....get the picture.

The answer of course is no...maybe Battin' Barney back in 1901...chuckle,chuckle.

Help me out...I can't think of one.
