          He has dark hair and pale skin like a lot of Italians do and his features resemble more a Mediterranean ancestry than a British one. You know this to be true because Mediterraneans (Italians, Spanish, Greeks) tend to be better looking than Northern Europeans.

            He looks like a typical welshman...Italians tend to have more tanned skin

                Are you ******? A lot of Welsh people have Italian heritage. I also have Italian heritage. It's no coincidence Enzo Maccarinelli, the other Welsh champion has Italian roots.

                Infact both Jones and Hopkins are Welsh surnames, are they Welsh? no...

                  His Grandparents on his fathers side are from Italy..or Sicily I think..(For the yanks, thats the large Island off the boot of Italy , and is part of Italy..."Get an Atlas already"..)

                  His father came to the UK when he was 2 years old.......

                  His Mother is from Wales.

                  Joe was born in England and brougt up in Wales...

                  Joe is British.....with an Italian father who can't speak Italian...

                  Calzaghe is British with Italian relatives on his fathers side..It's not that difficult..
