    If Joe Calzaghe was American and black, would he be better respected?

    Would Joe be better respected by some people if he was American and black?

    Would Joe still get his two or three hate threads per day on boxingscene?

    Would all his haters like Flawless (Sugar May Floyd), danc1984, bsrizpac, DiegoFuego, chiyoko, El Dominicano etc feel the same way about him?

      Yes he would because people only appreciate American athletes and they they get extra points for being black. Is that what you wanted to hear you ****** ****?

                  if calzaghe was african american he'd be even more hated than he is now.

                  one of the reasons why calz gets away with his bull**** is because he's white.

                  remember that article by cliff rold (i think) that said calzaghe was an ATG but Mosley wasnt???

                  calzaghe and his fans need to praise God that he was born a white guy.

                    If he was he would not have a quarter of the fame or money. He would also be thought as a hype job by people from all countries.
