Calzaghe,"Yanks have'nt showed me any respect!"

[Conrad]

not the best PR to get more US fans but will prob help to sell the fight even more so what can you say, but i guess reading that, that this really is his last fight.

wonder if they know americans find the word "Yanks" disrespectful.

Disrespectful? A yank is a gay pedophile; 'disrespectful' is an understatement (unless you play pro baseball in New York).

I'll be honest here, I didn't know that about the term Yank.

The word may mean that to Americans but there's no way the British use it in that way. We call Americans Yanks like the Americans call us Limeys. Or the Aussies call us Pommies...
