Does anyone really like Calzaghe outside of the UK?

[maac]

Yes, Mexico

I'm from Mexico and of course a follower of
the great tradition of mexican boxers, Chavez
et al. Actually, Calzaghe is my favorite boxer
and i don't understand the criticism towards him,
he's exciting, smart, has great heart and is incredible.
Very underrated.

[MANGLER]

I don't like him, but I respect his talent.

[JulioCesaChavez]

They don't even like him outside Wales! In fact, no welsh people are liked in the UK. FACT. If he wasn't half Italian he would have committed sucide by now.

Canadian and I can't stand Zaghe, he's overated and get's to much cred for beating fighters that are past their best. Hopkins was an ugly fight could have gone ether way, and Hopkins is like 43 years old. A great 43 year old fighter, and I'd pick him in the rematch, esp with roach gone. Jones was past it and has been for a while, Tarver Koed him already. I have a feeling Zaghe won't retire and will fight Winky because Winky is past it also.

On top of that he's ****y, punches like a ***** and never struck me as the type of guy who really wants to prove himself by picking hard fights.

even calzaghes own mom knows he is a fraud. she refuses to watch her son fight cause hes such a windmilling ***** who cherry picks and gets gift decisions.

[MissDeeCole]

everyone around me cheering calzaghe was from new york. the UK fans were all in certain sections. hes universally liked at this point

[AKATheMack]

I dont mind him I just hate most of his fans.

[Scoooter]

USA born and raised, and I know more about boxing than anyone ever. I think Joe Calzaghe's great.

[JunglistSoldja]

Anyone who answered this thread in a serious manner and kept on adding fuel to checkmania's bait really need their heads testing.

The simplist way to deal with idiots like him who clearly have no idea about anything in life is to ignore him like everyone else probably does in reality.

Im born and raised in the USA and I like Joe.
