    Good read. I never knew he never lost a match when his father was his sole trainer.

    I noticed he picked Mosley to win also. I am still banging my head into the desk on that one. Shane did well, but so many of us underestimated Cotto.

    Yup, truly fantastic interview by Rob Preme Lewis and its great he's got the contacts in the Calzaghe gym and building up the rapport again with them.

    By the way, I saw Enzo in Swansea city centre on the Tuesday afternoon after the fight. He was incognito in trackies and a beanie, but he didn't have a mark on him.

    haha he loves his beanie - he even had it on the scales during his weigh in.

    I'd love to see him fight Froch, personally


    Gary Stretch and Dan Schommer had no problems outboxing Chris Eubank while Tony Collins, Herol Graham and Johnny Nelson all made him look like a fool in the gym

    Eubank just could not deal with southpaws at all, his jab would be some sort of light side-punch and his right hand would turn into a kind of roundhouse punch with little power

    I can't work out when people say prime for prime Eubank would beat Calzaghe

    But against a 5ft8-5ft11 orthodox fighter, I'd say Eubank is about the best of the last 20 years (bar maybe Roy Jones)

    Great inteview. I hope Calzaghe stays true to his word and retires within a year. Getting one more big win and retiring undefeated after so many years would be a amazing feat. Too mant boxers stay around to long but I think Joe sincerely thinks he has one great fight left in him.

    Froch is way to sloppy for Joe, CC for the interview great read.

    Not as sloppy as Joe himself He misses so much it's almost funny, does Sir Joe

    If it was a proper fighter in there last Sat (instead of that reluctant robot), he'd have been punished more and beaten into submission

    Dude...you're fucking high, so pass me some of that mind-destroying substanceyou're on so I can use it to experiment on some of the local chavs. So if Joe Calzaghe is such a dreadful boxer, how on earth has he beaten every SMW of note who hasn't retired or left the division to avoid stepping through the ropes with him.

    This is Calzaghe thread jeez is this all you talk about DD i think you should get a new record because you post the same stuff about same fighter all the time Calzaghe would beat Eubank any time in Eubank's career Eubank always hated pressure fighters are we forgetting the beating Eubank took from Watson in there 2nd fight until Eubank landed a lucky punch out of desperation also Calzaghe never got gift decision's of the likes of Ray Close

    Not as sloppy as Joe himself He misses so much it's almost funny, does Sir Joe

    for one of the most ridiculous posts i've ever read.

    We all know Froch, Brahmer, Bute and (to a lesser extent) Inkin were far tougher challenges than one-dimensional Lacy and one-dimensional Kessler

    If he beat those three or four I'd bow to him

    Joe has just got the title (it's taken him 30 years, by the way), now it's time to start defending it and prove he's a real champion
