Thread: Anybody see Calzaghe on GMTV

He was talking about his career amongst other stuff. He said that his Dad wasn't his main trainer until he was 17. Since then he won all 55 amatuer fights and 46 pro fights, so never lost with his Dad in the corner.

He also said that if he had've carried on he would've lost, because he is 'Past it' lol

Looked in good shape, reckon he must be about 195 lbs

He is campaigning against childhood bullying, which is why he was on the show.

Yeah Joe hung up his gloves at the absolute right time, I also think it's great to see him doing something positive like this but then again, he had first hand experience of bullies at school so I hope he sticks with it and uses his name to make a difference.

Wasnt Joe himself the victim of bullying at school because of his dads italian heritage!!


Bet the same boys that used to knock crap out of him are damn glad he doesnt happen to know where they live nowadays
