Joe Calzaghe Media Interview Transcript

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Fred Sternburg: On behalf of Golden Boy Promotions, Frank Warren, (Sports Network), and Planet Hollywood resort and casino, we'd like to welcome you to Joe Calzaghe's Media Conference Call. Joe's just finishing up his last week of training in Wales before he comes over to the states and does his last two weeks of preparation for a fight that everybody has been anticipating for many, many months and appropriately it's called Hopkins versus Calzaghe, battle of the planet. It takes place April 19 in the Planet Hollywood Ring in Las Vegas. HBO will be televising it live and it's an extraordinary between arguably two of the best fighters of our era, Joe Calzaghe and Bernard Hopkins, and Joe will be moving up from the super middleweight division where he has reigned for over 10 years as world champion to challenge Bernard for his light heavyweight championship.

Interviewer: "How do you explain Bernard Hopkins' mastery of southpaw fighters? Without maybe divulging your particular strategy, how do you explain how this guy tends to be so good against southpaw fighters?"

Joe Calzaghe: "How many southpaws has he boxed?"

Interviewer: "I think he's boxed at least ? I'm thinking about 10, 11 of them, yeah."

Joe Calzaghe: "Well I think I boxed 37 right-handers."

LMAO!!

lmao @ Joe talking about how ugly bernard looks..

"He's ugly, his nose is flat across his face."

"He must have walked into a lamppost to get a nose like that. That's all I can say."

[RisAri0]

can't help but noticing him say..

"If I can't beat this old man I'll retire and I won't show my face in public ever again."

can't help but think that bernard will say he had something to do with that if he wins of course...

About Macrenelli Haye

"Enzo because he definitely didn't perform like he could have and he was – excuse me, but he was ill and nearly pulled out three, four days before. He took a risk, went into the fight, and he made a big mistake. He should never have been in that ring that night. But I'm sure we will come back. "

wow that's news to me
