I thought Joe put on a great performance last night despite what people say here. I think a lot of it has to do with playing down hopkins performance even at 43. I thought bernard did great too for being someone of his age and still hanging in there. I have been a fan of Joe since about after the Lacy fight as I never really saw a whole bunch of him since he beat him. But once I started watching the guy I started becoming more and more a fan. Heres why I am a Joe Calzaghe fan 1. He still trains at his hometown and at that shitty gym his dad owns. 2. He still trains with his crazy ****ing dad who used to play jazz of all things. 3. His dad is crazy as hell (did i mention this already?), doesnt know a whole lot about boxing, and brings all kinds of entertainment like drinking out of Joe's water bottle and wondering why it is empty in the middle of a fight. 4. He fights in the most unorthodox style due to probably his dad training him. It almost seems like they made up **** as they went along. 5. The way Joe adjusts in fights and doesnt really bring a gameplan. Anyways those are some of the reasons why I like the guy. He is definetly one of a kind.
That was really funny, he's yellin at his son to throw combos takes a swing out of the water bottle and then the next break he's sayin wtf did the water go give me another ****in bottle.... HAHA he's priceless...and yes I think they did make **** up as they went along but he it worked...
