    Calzaghe is half Welsh. He was born and raised in Wales. Wales is a part of the U.K. England is a apart of the U.K. It seems pretty simple to me.

    :lol: Yea always thought about that . He was born in London and in England too. Guess he was closer to his limey side he would of been huge in Italy or northeast USA too especially with Italy having a strong boxing history and great fighters of the past they've been having a drought for decades. Didn't know til recently, but Sexy Sergio has Greek roots as well. If the people like you they like you if they don't oh well. I think the answer really has to do with nationalistic pride and when the U.K. has a popular fighter all the surrounding nations backem up. Like a swarm of red ants they unite. Not too sure about the Irish or Scots, but you get the picture.

    Why are so many of your posts race and nationality related? Just talk about boxing. If you want to discuss race and nationality, try [url]www.castefootball.us[/url], you along with Vladmir23, Champion and others will fit right in there.

    He already does, his latest post on there is 'No wonder neither of these apes can get a license, this fight should be happening in a zoo. Both of them have acted disgracefully.'

    ****. Pretty much all the hardcore Klit fans on this site are white supremacists, some of them unashamedly so.

    He has a British passport and his nationality on there is "British" not "Welsh". That's why British posters posters call him British because, you know...he kinda is.

    His new nickname is the angry dragon. He always has coke and blood draining all over his cheeks.
