Enzo Maccarinelli

[TigerFan]

How good is Rob Norton ?

I know it's a step down from where Enzo was a few years ago but maybe going back to the British & Commonwealth level might do him some good.

Could a Macca-Norton fight be made?

Norton would be a decent challenge for him I think, especially if he comes through the fight with Dolan. Also, he's not a noted puncher so could be the way to go for Enzo.

He wasn't exactly in with top competition, but for those interested Enzo scored a first round KO over Jaksi.

Was it even shown? I watched the bill up until Khan ko'd Salita then put football on.

[ghengis cant]

i stayed after khan fight & enzo came on last (around 11-30) only about hundred watched thought it was bit sad really . Looked like they both had taxis waiting outside for khan party

[skel1983]

What was the point of that fight seriously??

I know Enzo is lacking a bit of confidance right now, but come on? Firstly Enzo is 29 years of age no spring chicken if he is serious about making a solid comeback ( imo he is done ) What the hell is he doing fighting a guy who I might consider as an opponent for a promising pro making his pro debut. Enzo hasnt got time to be pissing about he needed to fight a 10 rounder on saturday against a solid fighter who can take a punch to see what he really had left not some local bouncer who my gran would probaly have a shot against.

this time 2 years ago the world was enzos oyster

decent fighter with a class trainer set for the biggest fight of his life. Enzo had shitloads of potential and was a genuine class operator at cruiser.

Haye took him apart because he was a class above. He got extremely careless against Afolabi and paid the price.

But the moment he got knocked out by that unknown last time out that should of been it..

Hate when people claim someone as young as 29 is finished as a fighter. But unless enzo completely re-invents himself and accepts he is back at the bottom of the ladder he would be probably best off calling it a day

I think he should start at british level and work his way up.(or quit)


At least the fighter he will face wil be in there to win and make a good fight of it.

Yeah, go back to basics, either a Commonwealth or British title and start building back up towards an European title shot. I don't think he'll get any favours in trying to get back towards a world title shot, he's got some hard nights' work ahead if he really wants it.

I really like Enzo as I have met him a few times and he is alwys a nice bloke but he needs sombody to tell hime where he really is in the boxing world.

Ro Norten would be a good comeback fight for him.Norten would be in it to win it and give Enzo a good test.

[Fenster]

Enzo had been sparked by journeyman Swaby, nearly knocked out by Seldon and then when he improved had a life and death with Hobson and Dominguez.

The world was never his oyster.

And unfortunately his promoter took the bait from Haye and Booth which effectively ended old Enzo's career.

[Bomp]

His problems are mental not physical, so at 29 it's not completely impossible for him. I agree the British route is the way for him to go now, but one more performance like the Lebedev one and he needs to hang them up.

I think he has, hence the level of this opponent.

Let him do it, who is anyone to tell any boxer they shouldnt be fighting?

He has to make a living and just has to refine the way he fights a bit so he doesnt take shots, maybe he needs better sparring, bigger sparring partners so hes learning better defence

While there are people making a few quid out of boxing by losing everytime they fight, some getting knocked out or stopped everytime, why cant someone who was a world champ keep plodding along

Some good fighters fall apart mentally after being dominated or knocked out for the first time, Enzo may just fall into that area. Seems a good sort.

Hector "Macho" Camacho used to be a all round fearless fighter, that is until he met his match. Edwin Rosario gave him a few good cracks. Hector (and Rosario) was a excellent fighter who discovered how to peddle fast the hard way.

Too bad for Hector he does not know when to stay away...even with all the running he developed in the ring he still took way too much abuse
