    Thing is I am not having a go at James Bowers - he is a young kid who has had a difficult life.

    I just feel Hatton made a show of it all - "look how nice a guy I am too befriend a young kid like this - I got a heart of gold ain't I"

    i don't buy all the over the top mr nice guy boy next door routine either.however i believe he is a good kid,i've shared a room with him in my home town at a talk in and nothing was too much trouble for the man,he came across as totally genuine,nothing put on or false at all.

    I'm not saying he is a monster or anything like that

    But I think not only me but lots of other people can see he puts a PR spin on everything like a Politician

    Its the principle of it

    The intent behind it

    If he tried to rip you off for 60p he would try to rip you off for £60,000 if he had the chance too

    Thats what I call a ****

    agreed

    My admiration for Calzaghe has fallen considerably by cashing in fighting a shot fighting but still trading off his name

    Why didnt Calzaghe fight Roy Jones say 2000?

    Cos he would have got beat by a exceptional fighter.

    Now he can claim Roy Jones name on his record for his legacy but we all know it's just in name.

    I started a thread called: Calzaghe........ Greedy Like All The Rest

    Cos I thought he would see his career out with Warren now but he couldnt resist going the same way as Naz and Hatton and cashing in big time

    Morally speaking Calzaghe desrves to lose this fight because

    #He is fighting a shot fighter in what he thinks is a safe option
    to preserve his perfect unbeaten record

    #He has burnt bridges with Warren and Sports Network just to
    fill his boots and cash in as much as he can for his pension even
    though he is already a mulit millionaire

    Lets hope Roy Jones digs up one last good performance from somewhere and outbox's Calzaghe and ruins that perfect record

    I would have to beg to differ on the latter statement. Hotels in NYC cost a **** load more than in Vegas. The £100 flight price difference is correct though.

    90% of you whining babies won't be going so stop whinging. Chist is it really such a bad thing he wants to secure is families future... or would you prefer it if he detoriated into a Scott Harrison type mentalist?

    He's well already secured his families future even before he challenged Tszyu though. How many more millions doe he need?

    Wouldn't be bothered If he was like Harrison as long as he had a decent ring career.

    I don't buy that "he's got enough" argument for any fighter, they are entitled to try and earn as much as possible.
