    For fighting Roy Jones.

    Having said a while ago that 'Jones has been shot for years' and 'Why should I fight him?' - then actually doing it, and getting decked in the first round :lol:

    Money talks.........and I should imagine most guys would hit the deck if they had a forearm in their chops!!!

    Difference is he got up, many wouldn't

    He was plenty more arrogant back in 1997....

    Still, he doesn't talk about himself in the 3rd person, thats a bit deluded

    No, I guess he doesn't.

    Another thing.....

    It would be an interesting poll, who has the most annoying father - Ricky Hatton or Joe Calzaghe.

    Ray Hatton seems incapable of lying to the camera and looking convincing, whilst Enzo Calzaghe is just a bona-fide prat.

    Ray is more annoying just cos he looks like Kevin Keegan and has to say the right things due to being part of the management....Enzo is just a bit left of field......usually entertaining though even when he's wrong

    I think Ray Hatton tries to convince you that he actually knows boxing, when he clearly doesn't - not that I do really, just an observation.

    Who is the other flunky - is it Paul Speak, who the **** is he, what job does he have other than putting a baseball cap on Ricky's head after being splatted by Mayweather?

    I simply cannot stand Enzo Calzaghe - he gives himself loads of credit for being a great trainer, but as David Haye said, you could get Mr Bean to train Joe and he would still be world champion...... what other world champs (genuine, not paper ones) has he produced...... why do all his fighters seem like Joe-replica's?

    To be fair Enzo training Gavin Rees to beat M'Baye for the WBA Light Welter title was like turning water into wine

    More like a fluke.

    Order was restored next time Rees fought - and he hasn't been seen or heard of since.

    'Ricky has to earn his shot at me. When he does, I will fight him, and think I would win'

    'I want to unify against Witter then move to lightweight and beat Khan to win a world title. Very few fighters have moved down a weight to become a multiple weight champion'

    The world record holder there should certainly be able to be beaten. He tired at least once and his workrate dropped. Someone should be able to top that.
