Bets On Joe Calzaghe vs Roy Jones In Here.

[BIG H]

Just like you did with Floyd Mayweather against Ricky Hatton ?

When have I ever wanted a British fighter to lose?

'ROUTING' for means WANTING to win. That's a lot different to objectively thinking somebody will win!!

What has where a fighter comes from have anything to do with boxing ?

It's called National Pride mate and it's what makes used to make this country great. Without it who are we? That's the problem with your generation mate and that's why this country is going down the shitter.
Where does where a footballer come from have anything to do with football? but 3 billion people watch the world cup to route for their country

I don't agree with you mate boxers are individuals with a individual style and we become fans of them because of these styles or personality not because of where they come from. I don't like Joe because i don't like his style or personality so whether he is from Britain or not i won't cheer for him i was a fan of Mike Tyson and i liked Lennox Lewis who is British but i still rooted for Tyson and didn't root for my countryman i rooted for my favourite of the 2.

Like I said in my post above, I support loads fighters from overseas, infact nearly all my boxing heroes are not British, but hero or not I would want them to lose if they were fighing a Brit. Just the way I'm built, no right or wrong answer on this one, guess it's just about how much pride you have in your country

[intoccabile]

So am I wrong for wanting Hatton to spank colazo, mayweather
For wanting Cotto to beat Mosely, etc etc.

for wanting the Dallas Cowboys to smack the Philadelphia Eagles? lol.

When you are a fan, nothing should change your perspective imo.
If i'm a fan of hatton and he's fighting the USA's biggest sensation.. oh well, hatton gets my cheer.. because THATS who I'm a fan of.

You're not wrong, you just don't have as much national pride as I do

I wouldn't call it national pride bro.
It's just I don't think it is fair to want someone I've always wished the best for to lose all of a sudden because he's fighting someone of my nationality.

That's fair enough mate, I respect your view, it's just different to mine

So you can honestly say if any of your favourite fighters worldwide was fighting any British fighter you would be rooting for the British fighter?

I just back against Brits mate. I am an Everton fan, but I will even support Liverpool in Europe, because I see it as England v Spain/Italy or whoever. And I fucking hate Liverpool

[Gandalf]

Calzaghe is my main man and I'm willing to take a bet with anyone. He will beat Jones Jr. and do it with style. If he is anything near his best he will overwhelm Jones Jr with his volume down the stretch. Anything less and its a decent points win. He cannot afford to get sloppy though, and he certainly shouldnt treat Jones as anything less than a legitimate challenge. Jones Jr is a legend and should be treated as such.

Come on Joe!!!

Your starting to piss me off seriously now, what the hell has where a fighter comes from have to do with boxing ? are you that ignorant ? its all about individual tastes in boxing you can root for whoever you like.

I guess im a true fan of the sport then that can, root for any fighter from any country. For there skills, heart, determination, whichever attribute i like most about a paticular fighter. And i don't just follow the crowd and just root for any fighter from my country.

Secondly who are you to tell me who i can or can't root for ? i didn't know you was almighty god.

And our country is going the shitter because im rooting for RJJ over Joe Calzaghe ? grow up do you know how ridiculous that sounds ?

When two guys enter the ring all that BS about country vs country, goes out the window. There risking there lives in there, and if you like a fighter who doesn't come from your country, more than the fighter that comes from your country. For there style then you should root for them for whichever attribute you like the most or you find more appealing.

Thats exactly why i rooted for Floyd Mayweather over Ricky Hatton, i appreciate Floyd Mayweather's boxing/defense/slickness style better. Than Ricky Hatton's brawling/hugging/mauling kind of style.

I think your way out of line to put me in the majority of bad teenager's today, when im nothing like most of the teenager's today. I don't drink i don't smoke im not in a gang, i don't carry a weapon i look after my girl i look after my mom, and i will look after my baby when it arrives.

Lastly as i said before i couldn't give a shit about football, i never liked watching it. Most of my friends do but i don't follow the crowd, i either like something or i don't end of.

[smashup]

Jones only.....ONLY chance is to KO Joe in the first 3 to 4 rounds - literally throw the kitchen sink at him as he hasn't got a f*cking chance when he starts blowing out his ass after the 5th and Joe will do what he always does and simply run away with it.
Don't get me wrong Jones is dangerous in the opening rounds and Joe will have to be very careful early on but Jones hasn't shown anything like his old self in years now and let's not forget who he is fighting here.
Calzaghe on a huge points margin or maybe a stoppage

Oh stop whining you little stumble - I'm expressing my opinion that I always route for my own countryman and I think you are a disgraceful sell out Judas. You take yourself and comments on an internet forum way too seriously young man
