Joe Calzaghe's greatest win came after fiery build-up dominated by race
According to boxing stats system Compubox, Calzaghe landed more punches on Hopkins than any of his previous opponentsGervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia agree to bet their whole purses on outcome of fightHafthor Bjornsson screams in agony as he tears pec muscle in live bench press stream'Those rumours are TRUE' - Deontay Wilder's trainer CONFIRMS Saudi Arabia negotiationsAdvertisement
The challenge of Calzaghe also, according to Hopkins, was the challenge of a ‘con man’, which he labelled him off the back of the perception that he had long been protected by his father and trainer Enzo and his promoter Frank Warren. The Welshman was also fighting little over a month after seeing his friend and stablemate Enzo Maccarinelli stopped by David Haye, and weeks after watching Andrey Kotelnik beat another in Gavin Rees.
If he was going to win, Calzaghe, fighting at 175lbs for the first time, was going to have to do so from a round and a knockdown down. His son Conor, distressed at watching his father hurt from as close as ringside, felt a hand land on his shoulder to console him, and turned to see that it belonged to none other than Whitney Houston.
“The rounds could be close. I lost the first obviously. The second, third and fourth were close. I knew I was chasing the fight, after six, seven rounds. Ten was close but I won most of the rounds other than that. I outworked him the second half of the fight.
