Dosent look so good for poor old Enzo. Class shot though - really captures the intensity of the situation as Haye ambushes Enzo in the corner -
It would be a real motivator and lesson for the up and coming Welsh kids being trained by Colin Jones (in the gym at the end of your garden lest we forget). This content is protected
The shed has been demolished. They are in process of building a new modern one - even bigger and better. Are you suggesting Enzo **** himself - do you really think he did ? :think Enzo claimed he fears no man.
Look at the body language Flint Watch it again and look. Is that a man thinking ...'yeah **** it I'm a beast and I'm going to destroy this chinny pretender' as he legs it to the ring...hair looking all messed up and a baffled look on his face.
Theres no doubt - Enzo looked stressed shall we say on the night. But all in the build up - he sounded confident - said he had begged for the fight to happen. Camp Calzaghe all had confidence in him - Frank Warren all had confidence in him. And after the fight - Enzo claimed he made a mistake and got his leg trapped in the rope. If Enzo really believed he was the best Crusierweight in the World - then why would he **** himself on the night ?
People don't always believe what they speak Flint. The evidence suggests he was doing nothing but bluffing. I agree he did sound confident, even I bought into the fact that he thought he could win. But the inner resolve wasn't there at all when faced with the fact that he was about to step into a ring with nothing but Haye and a ref.
I agree - I think - Enzo really thought he could win - and he really wanted the fight. But I think - the reality sunk in on the night - something happened to him mentally on the day of that fight - and by the time he was making his way to the ring - his hair was all frazzled and he was rigid - and just there for the taking. He made it easy for Haye. Look at the weigh in on Firday night - I heard people like Scurlarantings say Enzo lost it at the weight in - when he seen the shape of Haye. But he seemed fine at the weigh in - and was laughing and joking with Joe Calzaghe and even won the stare out when face to face with Haye. Something happened to him mentally on the DAY of the fight. I reckon he woke up okay - and tucked into breakfast. But come the evening the nerves were there. I reckon by the time he left the hotel - the fear was kicking in. And by the time Enzo Calzaghes Vauxhall People Carrier pulled up outside the O2 Arean - I reckon Big Enzo was so badly mentally gone by this point - he wanted to go home - but he couldnt cause - the whole world was expecting the big fight to happen that night. the pressure was on - thats why he ran to the ring to get it over with. But Haye was raring to go and gobbled him up easy.............................. This content is protected
Thing is they were hyping this as the biggest fight since Eubank V Benn. It was supposed to be a super fight.
