Jack Posted 25 June 2008 Posted 25 June 2008 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/7469896.stm Welshman Joe Calzaghe has split from long-term promoter Frank Warren. Super-middleweight and light-heavyweight king Calzaghe has been promoted by Warren since 1996. But with Calzaghe eyeing up a career swansong, possibly against Roy Jones Jr later this year, he has ended his 12-year association with Warren. "I am now a free agent with no contract and intend to be self-managed from now on," the 36-year-old Calzaghe said in the South Wales Argus. Warren's Sports Network company was contacted by BBC Sport but a spokesman declined to make any comment about the split. The Newbridge-based Calzaghe is currently big box office in the United States following his points win over Bernard Hopkins in Las Vegas in April. And with the southpaw vowing to box one last time, he has decided to split from Warren and promote the fight himself.
Finnegan Posted 25 June 2008 Posted 25 June 2008 Makes very little difference now, really. He'll realistically get the fight(s) he wants now anyway - a lot of people would like to spoil his big last fight, I'm sure.
