Like Joe said himself, "Americans are ignorant"...:good Calzaghe cant be blamed for the average American boxing fan being a bit slow between the ears. You beat who they put in front of you and he has had many good wins other than Lacy.
Mandela and Gandhi were a pair of bums according to our Americans cousins. They were only a big hit in their own country.
Im not betting againts Calzaghe this time. After being stunned by his wins over Lacy, Kessler and Hopkins. RJJ looks so much slower than he was in his prime. I just dont see it.
The game of football could not be played without those pads, there would be far too many deaths. Early football started with minimal paddings and thick leather helmets. People were dying and getting critically injured left and right so this had to be done. Rugby hits and football hits are in 2 completely diferent leagues buddy.
