    Much like American boxing in fact. Stallone says American “arrogance” in the sport has run its course. “We have seen the emergence of European boxers, along with Latino boxers, and they have come to far surpass the quality of American boxers. American boxing has to accept that it’s in a rebuilding process, or maybe a downward spiral. Our day of dominance over other nations is over.”

    No comment...;)

    I doubt it will be as easy as Stallone makes out but I agree that Joe will win.

    Good analysis and he certainly does seem to be a knowledgeable fan of the sport. He comes off a lot more credible in the written form, poor ******* can't speak to save himself.

    Stallone was showing some extremely overt support for Calzaghe during the Hopkins fight in Las Vegas. He got up several times out of his seat and dramatically reacted to situations during the fight. You would have thought he bet $1,000,000 on Calzaghe to win, the way he was acting..

    He's been a fan his whole life. He was there for the historic battle between Holmes and Norton.
