    Only the ones we never get to see. Calzaghe is a good example cuz he fought bums most his career (not his fault) until lacy, since then he's slowly getting respect.

    Ricky hatton was kinda the same way but he's real likable and fought here quite a few times I believe plus the 24/7 series gained him a lot of fans, kind of the opposite for joe since all that show did was make him look more of an ass.

      No, I am not. But it's no secret they have built up records, so many fights do though.

                    yeah Eubank was the master of Arrogant not ****y.

                    All an act I assure you, he's the most pleasent Boxer I have met, very open , honest and friendly.

                    he teared up over the Watson story he was telling us, and the very fact that he helped Watson do the London marathon that year shows he has class.
