Sir Joe Calzaghe: All Time Great The Italian Dragon Of Hammersmith The Pride Of Wales

Funny you should mention, when I was in really great shape a year ago I did the same thing. I kinda let myself go this year but we'll see what 2015 brings. I'll hold that beer til yer ready for another, but expect it to be empty when you return!:smoke

I'm a cardio guy too, know where ya comin from

 

get back into it, it's worth it on so many levels
there are only 2 secrets for you to get back in shape fast - love to sweat, and know your food
if you're putting good things in your body (not beer, and definitely not vodka!), then 'hard work' becomes a pretty small mountain to conquer :good

 

Very true I stand corrected :good

 

you know me too good

Its the vodka indeed, i got major weight gain. I plan to 2015 back to shape...until then though i'm off the handle!atsch

Waitin for your message "pass me another":yep

 

Lol @ the ones whining about Calzaghe's passion for coke... Brit****s have an history of nominating "sir" people with the most controversial private habits.

It's in their dna, they can't help it. They desperately need people to make brit****land look good.
Hence calling "sir" rockstars, popstars, and every kind of lowlife concievable.

Also, lol at those "purists". Only with Calzaghe... While Mike Tyson snorted coke like there was no tomorrow, and used a fake ***** to pass the drug tests, Hatton was an addict too, and history of boxe is literally full of people overly violent, toxic, addict to gambling and every kind of drugs existing.

In fact, clean boxers are rare.

 

I do - prime Kessler was capable of unifying and defending smw titles, whereas old Hopkins was barely able to keep one for long (thugh that in itselfis massive when you are 40something).

 

:roflrofl This is why everyone laughs at you & your crazy posts. Calzaghe couldnt fight he slapped like a girl

 

Wrong, look at how Joe ended his career, on top with people wanting more. No one has done that. THE ULTIMATE SHOWMAN AND WARRIOR!

 

yes in that people will always be wanting more from joe, since he only acted like a champ for 3 fights in his 11 years of supposedly holding a title.

but he ended his career as he started it, running from serious challenges.

 

I know who you are now......Carl Froch!!!

 

hha you have good sense of humour lefty that's why I never will put you on ignore.

 

ROFLMAO It was quite the opposite. Calzaghe slithered off to a life of coke, alcohol, ho's & killing innocent little rabbits rather than man up & rematch Bernard Hopkins. Bernard agreed to fight in Wales too. But Calzaghe coward that he is ran like a scared rabbit.
People didn't want to see more of the Slapper all we wanted was to see Bernard Hopkins kick Calzaghes cowardly ass up & down the Rhondda Valley & get revenge for the robbery in their first fight

 

Seen Calzaghe fight in the flesh, schooled Bhop & RJJ - Kovalev? - Don't make me laugh. Will never see his like again.

 

do you know how old Hopkins was when calzaghe finally decided to face him, and how broken jones was ?

 

Or how old and arguably further shot Calzaghe was!
Either way, yeah a similar age as to when Wright fought him and younger than when he fought -
Pascal twice
Pavlik
Ornelas
Jones 2
Kovalev
Dawson twice
Shumenov
Cloud

and other than Calzaghe only Kovalev would beat him at first ask.

Does anybody not rate Pascal (who was alot further in age apart to Hopkins than Calzaghe) as a top LHW after losing to Hopkins?

How old was Hopkins when he first backed out of facing Calzaghe?
