    Calzaghe was all set to fight Collins for the WBO Title when Collins pulled out and retired claiming to have lost all passion for boxing outside of a fight with Jones. Collins came out of retirement a few years later to prepare for a fight against Calzaghe that would set up a potential fight with Jones only to collapse during sparring and retire once again. In both instances Calzaghe was fully prepared to fight Collins only for Collins to pull out.

    Yes they do...its english.

    Its their official language as of 1996.

    Austria speaks German. Does that mean Austria is not a country. America speaks English,does that make it not a country?

    Argentina speaks Spanish,does that make it not a country?
    Brazil speaks Portugese,does that make it not a country?

    So to repeat
    California has its own flag
    California has its own anthem
    California has an official language.

    What the hell does "its own" language mean?

    Does Austria not have its "own" language?
    Does Brazil
    Does Argentina

    Sure theres some indigenous groups in those countries have their own language, (Like the Sioux and Comanche in California).

    Countries have an official language.

    God Save the Queen is the song of the UK. Then regions just get top sing their own for the few sports that they are allowed compete in.

    There is NO offical anthem of Scotland and Wales.
    Let me repeat
    There is NO official anthem of Scotland and Wales.

    Dont believe me,look it up

    [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_national_anthem#National_anthem[/url]

    Hen Wald Fy Nhadau started as a song sung in working mans club and Churchs

    Flower of Scotland was written by a folk group in the 60's

    It isnt difficult.

    Hes being obtuse,in ana attempt to troll.

    Rep of Ireland and the UK are seperate countries.

    Wales/Scotland/England/Northern Ireland are parts of the country called the UK.

    I was just trying to make this simple point.

    I never knew UK to be a country tbh it's more to do with the fact that the countries don't have the hard borders of America/Canada/Mexico

    It's like calling Canada/America/Mexico the original 'Americas'
