    I don't think it is, Calzaghe is very unknown and very unpopular outside of Wales. I doubt they'd sell 5,000 tickets, the couple of hundred loyal Welsh fans of Calzaghe will travel up though I suppose.

      Nobody ever said Wales was in England or Manchester. These poor lads got their countries stuck up their bums and wonder why folks is laughin' at them. I bet they get their crumpets and strumpets mixed up with their tea and their pee also!

      There ain't no US ambassador to Wales or Scottland any more than there is a Scottish or Welsh ambassador to the US.

      You poor laddies have been busted, but we know you've already been busted for rioting since you can't even have a good soccer match without a riot breaking out. Probably fighting over the countries up your bums!

      Do you really think that stereotyping is constructive, Mr Bigot?

          I agree, it is a big unification fight between two very good fighters. It will sell out.

            The point is, it's not neutral as you think it is. The area is certainly going to be pro-Joe and anti-Jeff/USA.
            I actually started in this discussion with the simple factual observation that it's a different country. I didn't get into the neutrality angle, of which I'd argue you have a slight point.

            However, again the ignorance of the area is shown with the "different language" reference. Yes, many Welsh people speak English, but it ISN'T their natural language. They have their own language, called Welsh.

              calzaghes the best there is but don't see how he can stop lacy from steamrolling him.but calzaghes smart and could try to wear lacy down with a hug and run gameplan and buid up points.

              i don't think even ref parris will be able to help calzaghe.

                      Sorry man, I just lose my cool when you get these ****y little high school kids chatting **** about another country they know **** all about and thinking putting "pwned" in a sentence validates their ****ing ignorance.

                      Next time there's a fight in the US I'm gonna ask if that's in Moscow.
