Calzaghe admits to cocaine use

[CFH]

To be fair to Pugilistic, this wasn't his original thread title. There was another thread that got merged and it looks like its title replaced Pugilistic's. I've changed it to something similar to the original title - if anyone has a problem with that feel free to let me know.

Im quite suprised people are letting Joe Calzaghe off so lightly, he stated one of his family members supplies drugs to him unless i read that wrong, doesn't that sound suspicious to anyone else ?

And are people so gullible to believe he's only just started. Using it after he retired ? i never liked Joe Calzaghe inside or outside the ring, and i think this recent news will make people suspect about some of his fights, shame on Joe Calzaghe especially since he has kids he needs to learn to grow up.

Cocaine is a quick fix drug, stays in the system for a few days, boxers get drug tested before and after fights

If he was snorting between rounds he'd have ko'd Hopkins, Jones, Kessler and the like

[ono]

He's snorted too much anyway. He reckons Hatton was ko'd by a nobody. Seems to have 'Big Man' syndrome.

I kinda agree with you, especially the part about the kids - Just confirms what I already knew about him. That he's an arrogant, insecure, jealous cunt. Although most of what he said was true, it eats him alive that he never had the popularity of the stars he talks shit about. That's the real issue for him.

BUT even though it is Joe Calzaghe and I hate his guts , I have to also reluctantly agree with the people that say it is his business what he does.

Also Yup, the list of celebs that don't do drugs is obviously shorter than the list of those who do (Kinda like boxers who don't do PEDS is shorter than those who do - Whoops )

My favourite part about all this?

Now that Calzaghe is such a crack-whore, when he goes broke and needs to feed his addiction I can finally see him come back and lose that bullshit, treasured undefeated record of his to a journeyman WIN!!!

Amazing how some are trying to brush this off like it's ok just because Calzaghe is retired.

So when he is retired that means he no longer has to keep himself in good health and it's just fine to do cocaine? Because he is retired. So because he can no longer entertain you you could care what he does with his life or if he messes it up? hmm.. I see

Sugar Ray Leonard did cocaine when he was retired too, didn't turn out too well for him either.

Ok Cocaine is an Illegal drug, he is wrong for doing an Illegal drug in the eyes of the Law, but why the hell do some people automatically think that it is a problem? ( When I say problem the way I am reading through this half of you think he is gonna be 7 stone skeleton pawning his belts in the next 12 months! )

I have dabbled in coke plenty in past years some of my mates still do and I have no problem with that they all lead normal life's just cos Calzaghe has a bit of sniff doesn't automatically mean he is some fucking junkie who doesn't no when to stop.

Haven't you already got one?? I thought everyone had a WBA title. I got mine as part-exchange when I traded in Hostel & Armageddon at Blockbusters.

No, the people who are brushing it off basically don't care what another man does in his private life. It's Calzaghe's life, and how he wants to live it. If he wants to coke up and fuk whores, that's his business, not yours or mine.

You always have nosy motherfukkers getting into another man's private business when it doesn't concern him.

If someone is doing cocaine or drugs like that if it becomes an addiction(not saying it will) then people should get involved sooner. If your friend was on cocaine would you not do anything cause its his private life?

I see where you are coming from and I partly agree. If Calzaghe is really incontrol of the situation and not going mad then I don't see the problem. But a growing coke habit is not healthy. It will burn through his wallet and leave him in a mess mentally. I guess it all depends on how much mental fortitude Calzaghe really has. Maybe he uses a little on a night out or maybe it's a constant in his life. Who knows? But I do hope he doesn't start to fuck himself up like a lot of others. Excessive coke use can be destructive.

I know that question isn't directed at me, but I have friends who occasionally do hard drugs like cocaine and I have no problem with it at all. They're responsible adults and they can choose to act the way they see fit (again, within reason). If one of them because a heavy user or an addict, of course I would be concerned, but until then (and I doubt it ever happens) it's fine by me. It's no different than any who occasionally drinks heavily, like myself, and I'd wager it's probably on par in regards to the physical damage it causes.

Exactly. People should be allowed to live their lives the way they see fit, within reason. Someone who occasionally uses cocaine isn't hurting anyone but themselves (in a very minor way at that), who gives a flying fuck?

Cocaine is healthy for you , as long as you take it regurly and don't miss a dose. I'm not a doc but just saying what my dealer tells me
