    Joe Calzaghe Responds To James DeGale, Swipes Audley

    Last week, Olympic gold medal winner James DeGale lashed out at countrymen Joe Calzaghe, vowing to make Calzaghe eat his words. DeGale was upset over some printed comments that quoted Calzaghe, who per the quotes, questioned DeGale's ability to make a big impact as a pro. The 23-year-old middleweight won gold at the 2008 Beijing games and he recently signed a two-year deal with promoter Frank Warren worth £1.5 million.

      Apparently, everyone in the U.K. who isn't Calzaghe, sucks to Calzaghe. Meanwhile he fights old fighters and guys like Khan try to get here earlier and Hatton fights prime fighters. Interesting.

          HBO also signed a big deal with Vernon Forrest right before his back to back losses to Ricardo Mayorga.

          But, they know all I guess.

            The more Calslappy talks, the more I realize just how much he sucks.

                Yeah, it's not like Calzaghe was a prime 28 year old when he fought Hopkins and Jones. When Joe was 28 Hop and Jones didn't want to know!

                  If this is all it takes to blow DeGale's stack I fear for his chances at the top level of the sport. Someone needs to tell him that it's a bit tricky to wage a successful war-of-words campaign in public against a HOFer and potential ATG when you don't even have a Frank Warren stiff to boast about in the pros.

                    And thats why your opinion isn't really respected.
