Explosive Enzo Calzage interview

Will Golden Boy provide an Interpreter for the Pre Fight Press Conference?

 

Hop's fights a bit dirty eh? WOW!! I'm shocked:shock:

I do question the entire UK mindset on this though. WTF are they repeatedly pissing Hopkins off and adding fuel 2 the fire? It would make more sense to remain calm and stick to the plan. There's no secrets in this fight but they keep offending Hopkins and all that will do is make it more difficult.Hopkins is having a Super Camp and is extremely motivated. I expect a hard fought contest for sure.

JC is the favorite, but the UK media attitude makes me wanna pull for Hop's even more. I dont wanna bet this because JC should win, but I'll be rooting for Hopkins. Thats not as much against Joe himself, but the prevailing atmosphere.

 

Interesting...despite the whole wouldn't lose to a white boy thing?:think

 

While I didnt like those comments. I'm a long time Hop's fan because of how he turned his life around and disciplined nature. To me? That transcends race. It takes great character to do what he's done. I've seen many sides of life and always respect someone overcoming their surroundings.Coming from where he's been? It's sad to say he's seen the opposite as well.

I would have hoped the attitude of the UK would be such as to let the talking be done in the ring. Instead? It seems to feed into and permeate the uglier side. It's to the point they are bringing the US vs UK mentality and as an American? I think its rubbish. Even if that's Hopkins views(I believe it was more to promote the event rather than being overtly racist)? America is the sum of its part's and that's all races.

Dont get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for Joe himself and admit he's the favorite. But such arrogance on behalf of his supporters? Makes me wanna see Hopkin's prove it wrong. While that may not happen? I'm positive that pissing Hopkins off on a regular will only increase his desire to do so.

 

I agree with you that Bhops is a remarkable human being - a great man. But I don't think he's a good man. Maybe Calzaghe isn't a saint either, but he seems a slightly nicer fellow...Maybe he is not as big a character...who knows...

In any case, you have to understand the spirit of these verbal exchanged from the British side. There IS arrogance there, but only because Calzaghe is so underrated in the USA, where him and his best opponent are considered "Euro-bums". Also, Calzaghe is only mouthing off because he wants to sell the fight in the USA...this kind of mouthing off just doesn't sell well in Europe and in Britain, specifically.

The Calzaghe camp have always been pretty loud and arrogant though...but that's because of their confidence...

His supporters are pissed off that Hopkins ducked Calzaghe in 2002. They are pissed off that he's had to beat Lacy and frigging Manfredo to be recognised in the USA. So...when they see a well past it 43 year old deride Kessler and everything Calzaghe has every achieved and talk about how he's going to beat Calzaghe, when he's lost to Taylor twice himself and looks like he can not fight more than 6 rounds at pace himself...well...they are a bit pissed off to say the least, so they lash out...especially when so many Bhops supporters say Calzaghe is going to get beat up bad, because he's a Euro-bum.etc...:good

 

I feel sorry for the interviewer, all she done was ask questions people wanted answered. "Will it go 12 rounds" she asked
:fire:fire enzo wasn't interested and ranted on and on and on someone ratteld his cage. Maybe the previous interviewer asked him what he thought of haye :rofl

 

I hear ya, but I dont feel the serious disrespect for JC. Sure some idiots will talk **** but IMO real and knowledgeable US boxing fans respect JC. I'm not as against Joe as I am the resulting nonsense. As for beating Lacy and Manfredo? There was no crime in that. Joe was almost entirely Euro based and exposure is the only way to let people know. Joe proved himself and now has the chance to shine. If Hop's was ducking him? They still wouldnt have a fight.

Let losers be loser's, while winners rise above the fray:good

 

Don't worry...Calzaghe is a winner. All this talk is just to sell the fight in the USA. Yeah, Calzaghe is arrogant, but not as arrogant as Hopkins is if he thinks he can beat him!

 

I know he's a winner!! Many US fans know he's a WInner!! I dont blame Joe himself:nono I dont like the US vs THEM mentality:nono Sadly the undertones have been generated on BOTH SIDES:verysad

Joe in space? Is the Winners Place.

And I assure you given the disrespect shown towards Hopkins he will come to fight. Is it the fight Joe thinks or The Execution that takes place?
