It's good to see that boxing is still popular there. Of course, it was the British who introduced this "Gentleman's Sport" to the US.

We introduced most of the World sports. Football, Rugby, Cricket, Tennis, Boxing and Golf. Its just that we are no longer the best at them!

Would British boxing take a hit if both Calzaghe and Hatton get beat in their next fights? I'll be cheering for both even though I'm a yank....well English yank But with Woods,Haye(maybe)Rees,Arthur as champs and prospects such as Mitchell,Khan,Barker and Murray to name a few I don't think it will hurt British boxing in the long run if both get beat.
