      I think it is because Hatton has much better marketing men behind him.

      The channels that he fights on are much bigger than the channels Calzaghe fights on.

      Also, Ricky does a truly huge amount for charity so he is obviously a great man and I think British people like that sort of thing.

      Ricky does more interviews on prime time television as well.

      Ricky Hatton has been a World Champion for years and years, but obviously no where near as long as Joe Calzaghe so I suppose it is slightly surprising, but not when you look at the facts.

        The Paler - style that a pissed-up (drunk) Brit can easily emulate after closing time in a street fight.

        Enjoys farting, belching and has tattoos.

        Is also seriously ****ing ugly so no threat to a green teef's sense of self worth/sexuality.
