  • Unbelievably fast hand speed this guy would have beaten Roy Jones and Hopkins at any time in they're career he had the full package fast hands a great chin and unbeatable fitness also an over looked knockout punch which scored him 32 knockouts in 46 fights the only reason he did'nt score more is due to breaking his power hand recently after scoring his 31st knockout in 37 fights

  • death by a thousand slaps

  • muy buen video ami tmbn me enamoro el boxeo , nose q tiene q me enamoro es in explecaable y a la respueta q plantea en el documental, si es un deporte, y mucho mas deportes que otros

    saludos mu buen trbajao

  • I like Joe. He is a very humble guy and is very fast. I can't understand what his father be sayin though LOL!

  • slappy y u keep saying slappy? hes 46-0 beat jones hopkins slappy? if he slaps y did he beat roys face in and his eye was cut ?

  • Um I think you replied to the wrong comment bro. I never said slappy. Read my comment again, maybe you meant to reply to someone else? I said I like Joe Calzaghe.

  • my bad man

  • i agree hes a top bloke ive been lucky enough to meet joe, really down to earth and i met enzo to, he on the other hand is off his head

  • fuck he is tha man

  • even tarver and glen johnson are better than Calslappy coz at least they KO'd roy Jones - 4 YEARS EARLIER!!

  • Someone should make a documentry on how bitter and stupid americans are. Joe is nearly 37 and roy is 41 wow 4years omg . hopkins beat pavlik and roy just beat omar . they still got it and joe killed them easy. its 3-2 to the uk . Soon to be 4-3 when hatton kills manny .

  • u r right, hopkins still got it, but RJJ is shot. Omar sheika is a bum. Bhop does deserve a rematch even tho Joe "doesn't do rematches" (which usually have diff. results... ie- marquez pacquiao, marquez vasquez, but sometimes the same taylor hopkins).  Not all americans are dumb just like not all brits are dumb). Calzaghe is good, but it don't take nothing away from Bhop.

  • Wow, after reading the comments i know what you mean. Based on his resume, perhaps calzaghe did not step up unitl later, but based on his skill he's a lot better than even his critics give him credit for. Mayweather's resume is made of feathers and pillows, but he was still great but untested. I think calzaghe retired in better style tho, a litlte bit, not a lot. Pc!

  • gift decisions against Reid and Hopkins

    Toughest fights against Past Prime fighters such as Hopkins and Eubank

    Knocked down by bums like Mitchell and Kabary 18 title defenses against unknowns/BumsBest win against Kessler, who hasn't done shit in boxing and is already considering retirement. Calzaghe's career is pretty much a joke and he padded his record, Warren is more to blame as he protected his fighter, I mean a guy is pro since 1993 and you havent heard of him until he beats Lacy in 2006

  • Because his 0 would go if he didnt

  • that penisioner destroyed pavlik and forced kelly to make his tru comeback fight agst sergio mora (who i have winning by split decision)

  • and wasn't the ref who took a point off Calazaghe against Lacy an American too ? Anyways I am happy to be proven wrong here as I am a fan of all boxing !

  • Actually I think the ref in the McCall fight as Mexican .... ! But it was a Don King Promotion !

  • The guy who refereed the Klitschko/Lewis fight was American and let Klitschko off with a boot to the head of Lewis. Lewis was given a quick count against McCall I am certainly not anti American, I have a lot of American friends and love American boxing, but I have fought and refereed ... and I hate bias wherever I see it ! That includes the UK .... ! Any thoughts or am I being out of order here ? No racist crap please .... this ain't an anti American article !

  • For many people Calzaghe is nobody and his name is nothing. Major part of boxing fans do not respect him and many people do not know who is Joe Calzaghe. Hes just spent 25 years of his professional career in England and in the end just beat legendary old-timers. Another smart-ass guy who will be forgotten after four years completely. Hope he will never appear in world boxing again sitting under the petticoat further on. Home champ

  • Does anybody else think that Cortez/American refs are biased on home soil/Anti British ? Hopkins never got reprimanded for all his holding against Calazaghe and didn't lose a point when he span him and cracked him from behind, Mayweather would have beaten Hatton but Cortez was certainly biased towards Mayweather, I was happy to see Barrera beat Hamed but remember when he slammed him into the ring post !!!!?? And Bruno/Lewis got points taken off them ... Against Tyson ... a very dirty figher !

  • FOX NEWS ALERT: JOE CALZAGHE FOUND HIDING UNDER THE QUEENS BED: News just in, JOE CALZAGHE has been found HIDING under the QUEENS BED. EXPERTS are not surprised, because of his BOXING CAREER. He HID in the SUPERMIDDLEWEIGHT division to AVOID facing HOPKINS or JONES! His CROWNING GLORY was fighting BUMS for WARREN who PRETENDED he was ROYALTY! Stayed UNDER THE BED but CRIED like a COWARD when BITTEN by a CORGI! The QUEEN Awarded him a CBE for COWARDLY BOXING ENDEAVORS for fighting TOMATO CANS!

  • What gives you the right to call any pro fighter a coward primeraprim ?

  • BERNARD HOPKINS = FIGHTER OF THE YEAR 2001!!!

    ROY JONES = FIGHTER OF THE YEAR

    1994!!!

    A COLLECTIVE GAP OF 21 YEARS!!!!!

    JOE CALZAGHE = FIGHTER OF OLD MEN

    JOE CALZAGHE = THE MAN FROM DEL MONTE = WAITS FOR THE "PRECISE MOMENT OF RIPENESS" HE IS TERRIFIED OF A FIGHTER IN THEIR PRIME!

    SELL OUT + COWARD = JOE CALZAGHE

    JOE CALZAGHE = A STEP BELOW--SVEN OTTKE, HARRY SIMON and CHRIS JOHN

  • barryamesw - the truth and that i know my boxing gives me the right!!! i pay and i am the paying public!!!

  • I thought my comment ws about referee bias ! U also have another user name don't u ? u slag calazaghe off on this as well ! If u knew anything about boxing u would never call any fighter a coward ! Hiding behind a keyboard ain't that brave now is it ?

  • joe could never be a roy jones when jones was in his prime & that is a FACT ! joe could never be a hopkins in his prime!! hopkins is 43 years old for god sake ! and hopkins even wooped joe at 43 ! and for joe to say he beat u banks and has always been better than ubanks is the biggest joke -everyone knows ubanks benn, watson wars and ubanks was washed up when joe fought him !! joe only fights boxers who are old -had to many wars & not in there prime - joe is fake coward who has robbed history

  • puta makina

  • wow, handspeed, wish i did the pads like that lol. He's superhuman.

  • what a fuckin waryer this guy is. americans are always saying jones in is prime will knock him out but whos 46-0 you stupid yanky twats they always talking shit fuckin hill billy fucks. go on joe

  • either way joe is a world champion an amzing 1 at that so if the trainer is telling him to do wrong things then he would have been found out by now. what a legend

  • The trainer doesnt know how a south paw fights. A south paw move to right, not in to the left.

  • Maybe he's working him in a way that he thought hopkins would try to work Joe...That's Enzo, he knows what he's doing so you should probably stfu.

  • a lot of things joe calzaghe does are not right acording to textbook boxing knowledge. he stands to square on, doesnt throw punches correctly and has a strange guard but it works for him and no one has been able to beat him

  • They look fantastic together. Incredible that Enzo never boxed in his life. Very good video, 5 star.

  • class will tell - joe will send rj jnr packing just like the rest of the stooopid americans. hey guys there is a world outside the us of a you know!!!!!!!!

  • Tell that to Kessler, Hopkins, Lacy, Eubank, Byron Mitchell and co. All the great fighters, Joe's sent packing. We'll see that Roy Jones enters that exclusive club.

  • you were right

  • we did :D

  • LMAO hahaha

  • looking good looking good. roy jones is gona get fucked up. trust me he aint gonna want the pain. calzaghe is a machine!!!!

  • how fast is calzaghe ...awesome

  • these fools slagging calzaghe still don't see his obvious talent and as an ex amateur most of you got no idea how skilful he really is....fought bums my arse...you get off your arse and train as a boxer .

  • Roy Jones is gonna knock him out, he's too fast and too strong. Not just speed in his hands but his movement and footspeed will be too much to handle. This is the first real test for him he's been very carefully managed. Granted Kessler was good but not a true threat and Hopkins showed his true age in that fight and still made it competitive. RJJ isnt half the fighter he once was but he's still good enough to beat Joe. Joe makes it to the HOF though. 20+ defenses counts for something.

  • If he was american you would all be sucking his cock calling him the greatest of his era and he also would of earned bout 10x his career earnings. but because he isnt american he is a bum. every american was on lacys dick until calzaghe destroyed him,now you all distance yourselves from him, typical yanks. as for hopkins he tried every trick in the book trying to spoil the fight and nick a decision but the judges saw through the cheating fucker.

  • well said m8! fuck them all

  • Have you gone to every Joe Calzaghe video and bagged him? Fuck! You need a fukcing life!

  • STFU ENZO! Damn his yelling gets annoying. Maybe that's why a 43 year old beat them

  • yeah right, I suppose he 'slapped' his way to 32 knockouts did he. Shows what you know

  • Haha really funny,

    Nob head

  • i wonder why.lol. mayweather is a welterweight an calzaghe is a light heavyweight of course he faster. calzaghe is super fast for a light heavy

  • King Arthur Abraham Vs Joe Calzaghe 2009

  • no way, Joe fights well known boxers, not wannabes

  • handspeed that kills

    p4p number 1!

  • Just the most incredible handspeed ive seen for many years, by father and son!!!!!

  • he has faster hands than most welterweights. I bet his hands are faster than Oscar's now that oscar is has lost his reflexes. Maybe his hands are faster than Hatton's hehe

  • Incredible Hand Speed

  • Good taste in music, Joe ;D

  • thats awesome , that speed is incredible !

  • i never seen anything like this.  this fucking dude is tiptop.

  • Calzaghe isn't the hardest puncher in the world but his hand speed and fitness more than makes up for it. Hopefully with the change in weight he will be a harder puncher now but he won't be throwing as many punches as he has done in previous fights. I say Calzaghe will win by KO in the later rounds 8th or 9th maybe.

    Any other predictions??

  • Whoever told you he wants Woods. That's bull shit. I know from speaking to the guy all he cares about is the money and creating a legacy. And unfortunately Woods offers no real financial gain unlike fighting the yanks on HBO and showtime. All going well on Saturday expect to see him fighting Pavlic at a catch weight or a fight of a similar stature. as for fighting mediocre opponents you can only fight whats put in front of you. Blame Frank Warren and fighters avoiding him for that.

  • not sure who's gonna win.

    hopkins is not stupid and will be prepared.

    joe though has got to much of a work rate i feel. he'll be throwing punches like in this video in round twelve. awesome fitness.

    hopkins might soak it up though.

    love it.

    cymru am byth

  • He will really hurt Hopkins. He has twice as much strength power speed and movement

  • hopkins is going to find this much more tougher than beating up little guys like Trinidad and De La Hoya. Ok he beat up light heavy Tarver but Tarver that night was unfocused on boxing.

  • Old Man bernard will get his head beat off racist bastard.Cmon Joe whack the fuckin cunt.

  • Joe Calzaghe: - Faster - More adaptable/ skilful - Tougher chin - Better Stamina - Higher work rate - A gentleman, icon for younger generation - Always attempts to please fans I can only see Hopkins winning via lucky KO or his experience... "slyness" rather... Definately not by natural talent. Good luck to both fighters, both are legends and valuable assets to the boxing world. We should enjoy them now, rather then after they retire Joe Calzaghe will own Hopkins. End of...
  • having said this,,i had clinton winning against tarver

    doesnt calzaghe look bigger and stronger than ever

    people are underestimating what joe has to pull off here,,

    he unified his natural division beating the no.1 ranked challenger in the process

    he is now moving up a weight to fight a p4p great on foreign soil,and the whole brit abroad thing rarely works out

    having said that though,calzaghe is special

    the best kept secret in recent years without a doubt.

  • I know he slaps but unbelievable hand speed. Anything could happen. Hopkins great counter puncher and Calzaghe so fast. Can Joe stay away from a bomb from Hopkins and how long can Hopkins stand a rat a tat tat in his face? Leonard, most picked against him and said he had no power. He was so fast he ended up knocking out people he wasn't suppose to beat. Power vs speed. I can't pick a winner here. Even and both so good. Great fight for the fans.

  • Who`s to say he can`t do a Jeff Lacy on him.Jeff Lacy was too inexperienced but Hopkins is too old.He should whack him almost as good as he did to Lacy.He does`nt `slap`either.He was the first to whack Chris Eubank down and Eubank had the toughest chin in boxing and Hopkins will do well to remember that fight Calzaghe had.

  • who has the height and reach advantage

  • cmon joe i know you slap at super middleweight I just hope you can get more power behind them for light heavyweight that will be the difference and it is a hell of a challenge to move up a weight

    I mean a hell of a challenge!!!

    I am supporting joe but fuckin hell this is 20 times harder than kessler

  • like a great drummer on the kit

  • Good luck Joe... Looking fucking awsome. Really hope that he dominates Hopkins and shuts the fucking yanks up.

  • Joe' song is now available at indiestore [dot] com / welshmusic

  • got that hot chicago muzik check it out!!!

  • on the winky wright fight but none of recent workouts

  • i think the fact its in vegas is massive, not sure whether joe can go there and win, if it was in the uk, he would be big favorite, but cus hes barely fought away from home, (apart from once in denmark on the tyson v nielsen card) makes this one too tight to call!!! good luck though joe!! the uk is behind you!!

  • he fought veit in germany the fight b4 lacy

  • Lacy said he slapped oh yeah what happened to him??

  • @ homegrown - who are the big boys of America then???

    Wot ya sayin is Calzaghe is not from America so he shouldnt even be considered a boxer.Fuckin joke!! If he was from USA the sun be shining out his arse!!. Noone from the states is going to stop Calzaghe. If you knew anything about him you show respect but b/c your an idiot arm chair critic you just know of 1 or 2 big names from the US and thats your knowledge.

  • Let's face it... Joe never put himself out there n said, f--- it, let's go 2 America until now... There are junior MWs n MWs who would make 4 gr8 match-ups with Joe... + if Joe really feels 'he has achieved all he can at SMW' why doesnt he take a swing at the best at 175 gold.. rather than looking to fight B-hop (a small LHW, who's v.good but past his prime) and Woods (Yorkshireman like myself but he's not even top 20 p4p).

    Joe VS B-Hop, is a tough + even fight.

    It's not about nationality, m8

  • Bernard is old but i hope he beats joe's ugly ass up until that stupid midget dad of his comes in to save him.

  • that was funny but joes far from ugly mate! should see his mrs shes a minta! i hope joe wins and woodsy tonight! it shows the difference between us and the americans though, our fighter are polite and factual and the usa guys are brash and attitude! look at floyd "monkey" mayweather hes as much a cunt as they come but hes so fooking good!

  • slapping again lol.

    He slaps and u guys think he is throwing fast combinations, those punches have no power behind them.

  • wow, Those are some fast hands and reactions.

  • Sounds a little like Machine Gun... nice vid!

  • lucky bastard :P

  • he will send Calslappy back across the Atlantic with an L

  • joe really does look stronger and bigger this time. he looks bigger than hopkins. This might be a factor if hopkins tries to 'muscle' the fight on the inside.

  • From the states, but the Welshman will win this fight.

  • christ he is looking fast!!! quite surprised

  • He's always had good hand-speed. Thing with Calzaghe is that he doesn't have raw Knockout power like some people, especially American + Mexican boxers... + some English knockout artists of the past 10 years in Hatton, Naseem Hamed + Lewis (dareisay it!). Most of his knockdowns and knockouts come in later rounds becuz Joe's work-rate is so high and his opponents can't hang at that pace! And joe does 'slap' quite a bit. Having said that, I'm a Brit... and i'm rooting for Joe evn tho i like b-hop

  • fair comments Im welsh but i havent seen him train and i know hopkins would make mince meat out of anyone who would not put up a solid performance. I was not that confident to go with joe for this bout, but of what i seen now im with joe

  • Wrong. Joe had a very good KO percentage earlier in his career and hit a lot harder but now has to take a lot off due to his bad hands. As a result, he has increased his workrate and he doesn't sit on his punches as much.

  • Regardless, Joe slaps... in boxing theres 10/12 oz gloves... if this was bare knuckle or 4 oz gloves... Joe'd be a laughing stock.

    Anyway, g'luck to Joe. 1 of the best boxers p4p, but he has had a career built on fighting mostly mediocrity... I mean even in the recent past, Bika, Lacy, etc were all talented.. but he never fought the big boys of America. I mean he wants Woods next (LOL- taking the easy road or what?) when Winky, Taylor, Pavlik, even RJ... would provide great fights in diff ways

  • That's because all these people have ducked him. I'm sure if he was English you wouldn't be discrediting him. And what about Kessler? Joe dominated him, and he is the 2nd best at Super Middleweight. You revisionist muppet.

  • Joe is the best Super Middleweight. I'm not discrediting him. He is the best Super Middleweight by far... he outclassed Kessler.

    All I'm saying is that the list of notable heads on Joe's win column is thin.

    Joe does slap.. it's well-known and real boxing fans know this. That's not say he cannot generate power (and yes, props to 'trout' below me, cuz it's true.. even floyd has the same problem of weak hands).. but the fact is, Joe chooses to 'slap' 90% of the time...

  • Agreed. Shame we never saw him v B-Hop or RJJ 10 years ago...

  • Joe is the best Super Middleweight. I'm not discrediting him. He is the best Super Middleweight by far... he outclassed Kessler.

    All I'm saying is that the list of notable heads on Joe's win column is thin.

  • Joe does often 'slap' but does mix them up with some decent punches. The beauty of it is that opponents don't know when a punch is going to have pop in it.

    This isn't bare knuckle or 4oz gloves is it. If Joe did MMA then yes, he'd have to hit harder and yes, his hands would suffer because they appear fragile. It's not exactly rare in boxing. PBF has the same problem.

    I can't disagree that he's a wasted talent though. Then again, no 'American big boys' wanted to fight him at smw...

  • I'm not saying that 'slapping' doesn't get results. It scores points and does tire out... but I am just trying to shed light on some of the reasons Joe doesn't enjoy as much respect stateside (yes it is problematic in how the yanks expect us all to go to them.. but that's how it is).

  • Oh, and if you actually watch the video, you will be hard pushed to find one 'slap'. You would have to be blind to see that there is more behind those punches than you would see in the majority of his smw training videos...

  • True but I'm not talking about this video per se. I'm talking about Joe's style in general.

  • why is enzo in a southpaw stance shouldn't he be orthodox like hopkins

  • perhaps he is varying training to get joes mind expecting all sorts of styles, just a suggestion!

  • when you do pads with a lefty you have to stand southpaw, to get the timing and distancing for the punch. makes no diference for the fight, when hes sparred he will have worked with orthodox lads

  • damn joes gonna kick his ass but its kind of strange that we haven't seen any new hopkins training videos on youtube I guess there trying to keep there training in secret

  • Hopkins can only dream about that kind of hand speed. KO the pensioner Joe

  • bernard will spark him out!!

  • joe is lookin sharp cant wait to across the pond next week to waTch this fight at the thomas and mack

  • hopkins getting knocked out, looking good, come on joe

  • pretty fast hands

    Can't wait

  • He looks super-fast like. They look like big 16oz gloves aswell. Not sure what size gloves they use in light-heavy weight bouts. Must be about 12oz i reckon. But, anyway joes biggest challenge i feel will be adjusting to fighting away from home. How well can he adjust?

  • should be 10s

  • He's lookn sharp.

  • Dam,it looks like the clips being fast forwarded, Dam

  • war bernard hopkins

  • cool
