I guess I can't speak for most American's, just the boxers and boxing fans I know. Just the ones who knew betting on Hatton at anything less than 7-2 was a suckers bet. Just the ones who know that Calzaghe should be about a 5-3 favorite over Hopkins and should bet accordingly when the odds move from that. Calzaghe looked very good against Kessler no doubt. He looked good against Lacey too. These were good wins, just not great ones to me. It takes a few great wins and several good wins to be an all timer to me. Or a couple dozen good wins if the competition happens to be weak during your era. Joe hasn't approached this for me yet, i hope he can step up to the plate and deliver because I am a fan of his. I also think the UK fans deserve a truly great champion that they have long been pining for.
