    Hatton vs. Calzaghe: Potential UK Rivalry

    Joe Calzaghe is relaxing after his split-decision win over Bernard Hopkins last Saturday in Las Vegas.

    Sorry, hate to rain on this parade but a rivaly between the two is simply no longer a possiblity. Hatton is coming off of a knockout loss and Calzaghe is coming off of one of the biggest victories of his career. Plus Calzaghe is still undefeated. The U.K. is big enought for the both of them to share.

          there's no rivalry. calzaghe is the better skilled fighter but ricky is the more popular. joe will get more praises but ricky will get more fan mail.

            Looks like Judah Promotions and Winky Entertainment are in for some stiff competition.. This could get ugly. Wait until Singchatchawal Enterprises gets up in the mix. The industry better duck down.

              It's not talking about a rivalry as each being boxers, but if they both went into PROMOTING there would be a UK rivalry which there most probably would.

                I'm sorry but Hatton will own Calzaghe as a promoter.

                  Hatton owns Calzaghe in terms of popularity... it's not even a fair competition.

                    Hatton got his Ass Kicked, Bumped his head on the Ring Post and Get his ****ing Ass kicked by Mayweather.. Hatton is ducking Witter and Joe beats the best in his Division and beat Hopkins at Light Heavyweight. While Hatton ducked the Number 2 Jr.Welterweight Junior Witter and get his Ass Spanked by Mayweather when he moved up... At the age of 29 he Lost to Collazo and has been exposed..

                    Meanwhile Joe 36 years old beats Kessler and Lacy in his division and beat B-Hop still undefeated and will retire undefeated and became the best champ coming from UK..

                    There's not even Rivalry, Hatton may have more fans but he got knock the **** out and ducked Witter..

                    Joe will retire undefeated and beat the best in his division..
