    David Haye or Adam Booth (I can't remember which now) said after the Haye vs Enzo fight that Enzo Calzaghe is trying to get all his fighters to fight like Joe. I don't completely agree with that but it does have some truth in it.

    It depends on what Enzo wants. I've never heard anything other than he is a normal guy who loves being near his family and friends around the area he grew up in. So he may be happy just to stay where he is. He's a nice guy Enzo (M) and maybe he's just happy being him.

    If Enzo concentrated on winning rounds instead of looking for the stoppage, he wouldve beaten Ola comfortably. He needs a plan B, at the moment pressure and power is all he has, id like to see more diversity from him.

    I think he'd win a rematch tbh.

    Enzo Maccarinelli has one of the worst glass jaw's in the sport, I used to support him being from Swansea myself but he cant compete at World level with that chin.

    He should retire before he gets seriously hurt, he's a nice guy after all.

    Being knocked out in two Bogus title fights surely entitles you to keep your rating?

    If Macca gets out of the Calzaghe stable soon he still has a chance of becoming a very very good fighter. Otherwise it will be a painful end to a promising career. Shame as he seems a decent chap.

    Jeff - I not convinced the big guy is a gent. He hasn't handled himself well at all since Haye KO'd Mormeck. His jealousy that night was terrible, then his refusal to give Haye any credit for KOing him, now his refusal to give Ola any credit. I used to think he was a nice guy, not so sure now.

    I thin k his big problem is his "huge power" (TM Calzaghe gym). His Huge power seems to go missing when fighting anyone other than a 14 stone binman.

    He has only fought 3 fighters anywhere near or above true Euro level. Braithwaite, Haye, Ola. He never KO'd any of them and got KO'd by 2 of them.

    I'd love to get behind him again. Show a bit of humility and change trainers. Start at a shot at the European Title.

    If Enzo's hand is forced I reckon he will leave the Newbridge gym. I mean, Warren pays Maccarinelli, Enzo Calzaghe does not pay him!

    Anyway, what do all these guys expect? There was bound to be a conflict of interest there because quite honestly, Mr Warren has just been ordered to pay Joe Calzaghe the best part of £2M. I do not think he will takes kindly to having to fork out that sort of cash!

    Nonetheless, if that's what Joe is entitled to, what he should receive for his pursue for Hopkins the good luck to him! The fighters are the ones who do the fighting!
