Will see, I'm perdicting a close match, but a decision win for Calzaghe none the less, I got it a 60/40 for Calzaghe.

I would agree, but as a Calzaghe fan, I hink Hopkins is winning the emotional pre-fight war, I fear he's getting to Joe...I hope it does't affect him sat night:scaredas:

Just seen the press conference, Enzo made a complete twat of himself.

Enzo's very delusional, when I watch Calzaghe I see a guy that throws awkward punches with below average power, I definitely dont see Robocop, lol.

Enzo and son have made a LOT of money in England. Much more then his wildest expectations.
I don't blame him for being proud. They're rich fighting all of those bums in England. Sort of like Ricky Hatton's mum.

I say, more power to him.

Now, at the 11th hour after they've made their coin, they hope Joe has some real skills to allow him to last 10 rds with a REAL champion. They even waited for him to have many birthdays before engaging. They're just sorry they couldn't wait until he turned 50 for good measure.

I'm sure I know more about the sport than you do, if think Calzaghe is comparable to a fictional super hero in "Robocop" or is as amazing as what Enzo describes him, than maybe you need to watch more of Joe's fights.

You're the delusional *****. Hopkins waited for joe to lose, so he wouldn't have to fight him. Well that plan failed. Sorry nard, you gotta fght joe now! Cause 6 years ago there's a conference call transcript that proves nard chickened out against joe.

Handed BHop a walking stick and rambled on incoherently for about 30 seconds.

Enzo irritates me.

But anyone who trains Given Rees to become the WBA Light Welterwight Champion deserves a medal, because that achievement simply defies human logic.

Absolutely. Whilst Enzo Calzaghe is an irrating twat, you have to give the man credit for his achievements in JC,Enzo Mac, and most of all Gavin Rees

HAGLERS/Hearns/Leanord BEST SIGNATURE WINS WERE AGAINST a HOF guy like Kessler and Lacy....yes very similar.

Interview with Enzo, taken from a British tabloid, parts of this are hilarious, which I've highlighted

JOE CALZAGHE is a real fighting machine the equivalent of Robobop.
The unbeaten world champ has been precision-made from body parts stolen from the worlds greatest boxers.
He is part Muhammad Ali, part Marvin Hagler and part Sugar Ray Leonard three legends who dad and trainer Enzo Calzaghe admits he is obsessed with.
That potent mix, combined with Calzaghes spite in the ring, has created a boxer who has not tasted defeat since the 1990 European Junior Championships.
For the last 18 years Calzaghe Snr has been drilling into his son the need for speed, the necessity to jab and the sureness of attack.
It is a formula that leaves Calzaghe unbeaten as a pro going into Saturdays light-heavyweight battle against Bernard Hopkins in Las Vegas.
Calzaghe Snr revealed: I have been fascinated all my life with three boxers Ali, Hagler and Leonard.
Leonard was the original speed merchant. He would throw punches in bunches and Joe throws as many punches as anyone Ive seen.
Its the jab of Ali that was so effective and its the same with Joe.
Joe demonstrated how good his jab is when he fought Evans Ashira. He broke his left hand in the third and had to box the next nine using just his jab.
It was a stunning performance. He won a unanimous decision using just his jab.
Its an Ali-type jab. Its like the piston in an engine when its running, it just keeps moving.
Hagler was an attacking southpaw, he used the counter punch fantastically well.
Hagler is the only one with a southpaw stance Ive seen attack with such effectiveness. What great fighters have in common is not only ambition and skill but a ruthlessness.
Calzaghe Snr added: Joe has that bit of nastiness you need when an opponent is hurt.
You can call it complete coldness in the ring.
As an example, Enzo recalled the 2003 bout when Byron Mitchell was floored for the first time in his career in the second.
Enzo said: He had never received a count until then, let alone been knocked down.

I had never seen Joe react like he did. He ignited. He started firing like a madman.
I was not happy with what he was doing but Joe wanted a war and he gave Mitchell one, stopping him in that same round.
Calzaghes 44-fight unbeaten record has silenced the critics of his old man, who was branded a bucket carrier trading off his sons talent.
It even led to reports of them splitting in 1999 but Enzo has just been voted Trainer of the Year.
He said: People called me a clown, the bucket man, that I didnt know what I was doing, that it was only Joes gift that got him to be world champion.
I didnt give a f*** what anybody said because I knew in my heart, I had a gift.
Hopkins has stepped up the war of words with Calzaghe by labelling him a bottler.
The American says Calzaghe should have fought him in the boxing capital of the world at least three years ago but chickened out.
He blasted: Im a Hall of Famer. In Europe Calzaghe is probably a god, but he is not a Ricky Hatton.
Hatton showed balls by coming over here and fighting. Joe had the opportunity to fight me three years or so ago.
He is not voluntarily coming here. He signed a three-fight contract with HBO and guess where the third fight had to be, the United States.

:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl Oh **** how big a moron is Enzo Calzaghe?
