    What if Joe Calzaghe claimed he would never lose to a black man

    I wonder what would have happened. Would there be more of an outcry?
    I think he would probably have a lawsuit on his hands by now.

    A lawsuit on what grounds? It's freedom of speech.

        you can apply "freedom of speech" to anything and justify anything thats ever said. it was a racial slur which provolks tension. there is no doubt in my mind that had it been reversed joe would have been severely condemned, something which i dont really see happening with bernard at the moment

            There would be a much much bigger outcry... but Calzaghe would never stoop that low to sell a fight. Hopkins is a hasbeen in every sense of the word. Those words will come back to haunt him. Maybe on his tombstone it will says "Beaten by a white boy from Wales".

              Its illegal in the UK to use a racial slur so its safe to say Joe would be in deep ****.

              Joe wouldn't say anything like that anyway so we will never know what the fallout would be, Hopkins on the other hand will have all sorts of Black street thugs praising him for being a racist twat.

              Hopefully Joe will send this boring old tosser into retirement

                Might be in America but not in blitey. You can't say anything remotely racist over here without there being uproar.

                  Hopks wouldve punched him in the face...then Mosley wouldve socked his ass.

                    I wouldn't be surprised a lot of people are racist in some way.
