    That's a fair point as long as you don't put yourself up as a role model.

    Hopkins = drug free near vegan and the epitome of a healthy respectful role model for children

    Calzaghe = drug addict has been who cheated on his exwife and is a terrible role model for children. Also backstabs his friends and talks **** about them when he is high on drugs.

    How do you know he is a drug addict? There are plenty of people who use drugs but are not addicts. Also, I would take those things he allegedly said with a pinch of salt. NOTW isn't exactly gospel. If they have a slow news day they will simply make up ****.

    I'm not saying he is a role model for kids, I don't personally know him so I can't really comment about on it. But you seem to be taking things way out of proportion.

    Hopkins = covicted felon who frequently in interviews like to bring up the fact the he`d been banged up almost like it was a badge of honour. What a role model for children.

    Living in the U.S., I've never heard of News of the World, but it looks very similar to the National Enquirer here in the U.S. The same kind of grocery checkout garbage that never prints anything of truth about anything, at any time.

    For those doubting this article, go to Calzaghe's official website and click on "latest news".

    Are you talking about the guy who changed his life around? The guy who honored a child's make a wish who was dying of cancer and dedicated his fight to him?

    We could talk about the has been Calzaghe who used to be a great athelete but now sits around with a runny nose from coke use in strangers living rooms begging to buy more drugs.

    You can be guaranteed that at the exact same time Calzaghe was snorting low grade coke in some dingy night club Hopkins was on the other side of the atlantic in the gym training hard and perfecting his athleticism and craft.

    Anyone else question whether he was fighting clean in light of this?

    I`m talking about the guy regularily bragging in interviews about how tough he was cause he`d been inside.
