Calzaghe making a possible comeback Reid possible opponent haha
Calzaghe is a great fighter but his career was over shadowed by his crappy resume, but I don't no if this is true but over on the Scene it says he could be making a comeback and the possible opponent is no other than the three year retired Robin Reid who he should of fought in a rematch over ten years ago if this is true it is unbelievable.
Calzaghe has gone from unknown fighter in his prime to being more in the spotlight at the end of his career to then retiring, it seems to be he craves the celebrity recognition/spotlight from what I have seen of him since his retirement, if he comes back which I thought there was always a good chance If it is Robin Reid haha I will piss myself, that fight should be for some sort of charity gig for tv like Comic Relief.

Where's the link Skel, is this for real?
I'd love to see him back, still a legend in my eyes, the coke addiction has just made him a whole lot more real and likeable.
He's one of the people imo. Good luck to him.

He's not a cocaine addict, he's a recreational user. There's a big difference. But I do agree, it has made him seem more human and more likable.

I had a feeling that as soon as the connects stopped fronting Cokezaghe his comeback wouldn't be to far behind

But there's nothing you can do about it, but explain one thing to me. Since when is someone being a drug user, make them more likable ? can you explain that one to me ? because really im lost for words.

I don't think a drug user personally makes them more likable but I think someone like Calzaghe multi millionaire national hero sporting icon etc etc, who is recorded talking about doing a few lines is quite funny/surprising and makes you see him in a different light, I don't think any less of him if he does a few lines now and again I don't see the problem, people can go on about people ruin there lives and get addicted etc etc on that stuff but so do gamblers drinkers and similar things but that's life. That is just my opinion and I respect yours.
Re: Calzaghe making a possible comeback Reid possible opponent haha
Ii do like Robin Reid but if you dig deep enough its probably him thats started these rumours;D
Re: Calzaghe making a possible comeback Reid possible opponent haha
These guys never know when to just leave this sport alone....i'm not sure about fans across the pond, but he'd be lucky to find five people over here that will care either way.

It's not because he's a drug user, it's because he's a flawed individual just like the rest of us. I personally can't stand cocaine and I can't stand being around people on cocaine, but if someone wants to use it recreationally then I have no problem with that. It's illegality is the primary reason for many of the problems associated with it.
Calzaghe being a bit of a washed-up has-been makes it easy to like and relate to him. He's no longer an arrogant, cocky person superstar. I think some people, myself included, find it easier to cheer for people that they can relate to.

Well Calzaghe loves to beat up on old past it fighters so I would look at Calzaghe before Reid.

I think Ice has the moral values of a 17th century puritan.

It's like he's stepped out of a Dickens novel, or he's an heir to the Earl of Shaftesbury :p
