    Sorry if this was posted before but I've only just stumbled across it. Really great interview. Calzaghe said he couldn't spar for 2 years at one point!
    Well worth a watch

    Shows how great Joe Calzaghe was, that he was still winning and looking great when he couldn't even spar for 2 years.

    watch the Jeff Lacy and Mikkel Kessler fights if you haven't seen them. Calzaghe was a special fighter. Arguably the greatest ever Brit.

    i like calzaghe and can't stick watd. Calzaghes biggest problem number 1 being welsh and not english. second problem boxing none of the best when he could of so now some make kevin kelly out to be some sort of legend who the **** is kevin kelly relly. The narsisisst Frock ducked calzaghe fact.

    Calzaghe was something else, truly unique and there'll never be another. Boxing won't allow for there to be another, training in what was essentially a shed with a musician, different gravy, was Joe.
