Joe Calzaghe is Welsh, Ricky Hatton is English. These are not the same thing.

    Calzaghe was born in London.

    No matter how much the Welsh hate it he will always be an English-born fighter.

    He fights for this nation. Sorry guys.

      Why did you automatically assume that I was talking about those two?

      Calzaghe fought Robin Reid (WBC champion), Byron Mitchell (WBA champion), Charles Brewer (IBF champion), I could go on.

      All were world champions before or after Calzaghe beat them, just because it is not a name packed division doesnt take anything away from Calzaghe has achieved, and if it makes you feel any better, Calzaghe spanks your boyfriend until he takes no more inside 10.

                He happened to walk into a pub just as I was leaving, wearing a Wales rugby jersey. Ask him where he's from, and he will tell you he is Welsh with Italian ancestory. The only reason he was born in England is because his parents happened to be passing through at the time. I have NEVER heard Joe acknowledge any Englishness.

                  Mitchell had just been robbed by Sven Ottke, else he would have had a title. Reid had previously been the champion, and would have been again afterwards had he not got robbed by Ottke also. It's like I said earlier, it's not Joes fault that there were no stellar names in his weight class, just the same as it is not going to be Pavliks fault when his career as a champion is marred by lacklustre defenses. How many names are there in the middleweights at the moment? Not many, and he has already beaten the really big names. Joe and Kelly were in the same boat at this point in their careers, only Joe had been a champion for 9 fights already I think. Names dry up and the fighter takes the **** for it, doesnt change the fact that Pavlik gets spanked inside 10.

                      And Miranda beat Abrahams right! dude yer cowabunga im on the dope!!!!

                      Joe was the champion Jones nor Hopkins wanted to travel to fight him even after brutal loses the only American that did WHO AT THE TIME WAS RATED HIGHER THAN JONES and the next Mike tyson got ruined.

                      Unless Eugene Williams and Adalade Bird are judging and Jay Nady is no where near this fight Hopkins wont win a round.

                      ARE YOU PEOPLE ***ING BLIND CALZAGHE WAS IS ANS ALWAYS WILL BE ON A HIGHER LEVEL THAN JERMAIN TAYLORS LEFT OVERS!
