    Calzaghe: Too many distractions...

    After 45 wins... and no losses, a fighter can start to get complacent... add that to the fact of a MAJOR distraction...

    This court thing going on with Frank Warren.. Joe is being sued, and then counter suing... it would be humanly impossible.. to be at the gym, and NOT have this stuff going through the back of your mind... you need to consult with your lawyers constantly and everything in a double lawsuit...

    His hand is injured... so hes still dealing with that situation as well..

    He JUST trained his ass off a few months ago to beat Bernard, now he must do it all over again, against another possibly dangerous fighter...

    It isnt out of the realm of possibility for these things to start catching up to him.. At 36 years old... I just see a few things going up against Joe...

    He ouhta be professional enough to overcome **** like this and not let it interfere wit a big title fight. The hand injury could be a factor, but he's fought thru that before. Only problem he should have on fight night is beatin Roy.

          I dunno I remember hearing about how some chick said Pacquiao knocked her up and he denied it. She came to the US to protest outside the Wildcard Gym during his training for the Morales rematch. He overcame that ****, but I dunno if that is 100% true as I read in a couple of random boxing articles from the Pacquiao site.

                  I think you accidentally stuck an n in there dude. It's a fair point a court case with your promoter of over a decade is a head ****, and will take up some of his time. So I can't see it helping him. Easy to say one should be professional enough to overcome it, but things pile up and if your training regime and schedule is effected then ultimately, you are.

                  Has no one attempted to shoot Frank Warren again yet? Hmmmm...
