For the first 9 or 10 years of his career most of the British or even Welsh general public had never heard of Joe Calzaghe.

Its only after his win over lacy that he was widly known.Then he packed the millenium stadium with 35000 against a bum.Them another 55000 against Kesller.Then BBc sports personality of the year.All in 2 years.

I put this down to Warren been more interested in his other fighters he was promoting at the time such as Benn,Naz and Tyson to name a few.



Calzaghe could amd should have been a British Boxing superstar for at least the last 5 years.
