    Much as I love Calzaghe the fighter as a man he has had a charisma bypass, so I would see Haye or Hatton being a more successful media savvy promoter.

    Haye has balls and does not b/s like the hattons, he wants big fight and as a promoter I do not think he would be content to deliver the b/s that the hattons will be promoting e.g. lazcano, maligfaggot etc etc, all shitty fights with the hattons trying to fool the public into thinking the opponents are truly exceptional. They can stick such title fights up their arses, I rather watch British title fights from Haye than b/s so called world title fights form the hattons.

    I can't see Calzaghe as a promoter at all.

    He just doesn't have the charisma or the personality full stop. He could make a good match maker but I couldn't see him as the front man.

    I could see his father doing it tho he certainly has the charisma!

    Calzaghe is entitled to take his shot at being a promoter or relase his own aftershave or release his own clothes line or music label - or whatever money making business he wants

    but he should have waited until he retired and seen out his career with Warren

    another point is if Calzaghe promotions get up and running are all Enzo Calzaghes stable going to desert Sports Network to sign with Calzaghe promotions?

    I would have thought so, I'm sure Enzo Mac would be first in line.

    If so this would have a significant loss to sports network and a big bridge burnt between the Calzaghes and Warren

    interesting times ahead

    it seems Calzaghe does not just want to fade out of the game when he hangs up his gloves

    pehraps part of the plan was always to **** warren off at the end of the road and then launch himself as his business rival

    So why isnt every other boxer in his position??? How would haye be able to get Frank Warren..............thats Frank Warren to put one of his top 5 fighters, that has a dodgy chin, in with a guy with a 95% KO record, that most of the british public has not even heard off, in his home town, and get paid £1million for it. and Haye doesnt have business sense.

    Haye and Booth our a team.
