Uwe BollGUEST
44:28
For example, I did sparrings with Dariusz Michalczewski, The Tiger.
Uwe BollGUEST
44:31
He was 49 and 0, uh, almost like, like Calzaghe, and, uh, the half heavyweight w- professional world champion later.
Uwe BollGUEST
44:39
And, uh, if you do sparring and these people, Olympic athletes, uh, you need to survive.
Lance MigliaccioHOST
44:47
Yeah.
Ade OladipoGUEST
37:01
Yeah.
Ade OladipoGUEST
37:01
Joe Calzaghe's fought in Cardiff very, very late as well.
Simon JordanHOST
37:04
Yeah.
Ade OladipoGUEST
37:04
And 1:00 AM, I mean, look, I, I've done a lot of the main events over here for, for many years, and most of them get going at, like, 10:30, 11:00.
Frank WarrenGUEST
17:44
It's not like it's not happened before.
Frank WarrenGUEST
17:46
Joe Calzaghe, Frank Bruno, Naseem Hamed, I'll go through a stack of fights it's happened.
Frank WarrenGUEST
17:53
What's the big deal? It's no big deal.
Frank WarrenGUEST
17:55
Get on with it.
Frank WarrenGUEST
18:33
They're running a business.
Frank WarrenGUEST
18:34
They wanna maximize the, the money they're putting in, and that's it.
Frank WarrenGUEST
18:38
That's, that, that's why we, you know, in the past, why Joe Calzaghe, the money we were getting from HBO, sorry, not HBO at the time, from, um, Showtime, they put in, that's what m- helped us make the fights happen with Jeff Lacy.
Frank WarrenGUEST
18:51
It would've never happened.
Joe CordinaGUEST
4:54
And like I's, I've, I've said in previous interviews that I've done before, and I've always said it, the people that, the fighters that go over to America or fight the big names from America, win, lose, or draw, that's where they would get remembered for.
Joe CordinaGUEST
5:08
The, the likes of, God rest him, Ricky Hatton, you have Joe Calzaghe, Carl Froch's, um, I could go on and on and on.
Joe CordinaGUEST
5:16
Do you understand? They re- regardless of how they've, how they've, um, whether they've gone over and lost, drawn, won, or whatever, they get, they get remembered for them big nights because that, that, the American audience is so big, um, it, it just, ev- everyone talks about it, not only just British fighters and British fans and whatever else, it's all the sort of American fans, that side of the world.
Joe CordinaGUEST
5:44
So it's, it's something massive, and obviously Manny Pacquiao is global.
Daisy ChristodoulouGUEST
6:07
You know, I remember teaching s- students for the unseen GCSE English language paper.
Daisy ChristodoulouGUEST
6:14
I remember one year an unseen reading paper came up about Ellen MacArthur, the sailor, and another year one came up about Joe Calzaghe, the boxer.
Bradley BuschHOST
6:20
Yeah.
Daisy ChristodoulouGUEST
6:21
Y- you know, just the background knowledge for those two suits different groups of stud- students.
Daisy ChristodoulouGUEST
6:27
So what are the implications in terms of how we teach? Enormous numbers of implications.
Bradley BuschHOST
6:33
Yeah.
Daisy ChristodoulouGUEST
6:34
And again, I think what I do find quite frustrating is a lot of people when they come across this study or when I give them that Ellen MacArthur, Joe Calzaghe example, they'll go, "Oh, yeah.
Daisy ChristodoulouGUEST
6:42
You know, that makes total sense." Like, some kids are gonna do better on the Ellen MacArthur than the Joe Calzaghe.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
20:59
Carl Thompson could take shots anywhere in his head [chuckles] and never go down.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:02
You know, but Carl, I think Joe Calzaghe put, put him down, right? I think.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:06
Who was it? Or Chris Eubank, one of them.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:08
Someone, um, I can't remember, but someone put him down.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:14
Jeff Lacy.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:14
Jeff Lacy was a very tough guy.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:16
They said Carl, Carl Calzaghe, Joe Calzaghe could punch.
Dillian WhyteGUEST
21:19
He, he bashed him in, dropped him.
King VGUEST
62:10
Legend.
King VGUEST
62:13
Who else we got? Joe Calzaghe.
Romelo Delos SantosHOST
62:19
Oh, man.
Romelo Delos SantosHOST
62:19
That's
Ronan MullenHOST
54:48
I would still, having said all that, I would still always fall down on the side of better late than never.
Ronan MullenHOST
54:52
That's always kind of my default position, 'cause if you even take it from a British boxing point of view, you know, Froch, Calzaghe, these kinds of fights are...
Ronan MullenHOST
55:00
In Ireland, we had Andy Lee, Macklin, John Duddy, all kind of at the peak of their powers, somehow never fought each other.
Ronan MullenHOST
55:07
So I'm always like, "I'd rather see them fight at some stage than not at all." I wonder what your take on that is.

6 MINS LATER

Ronan MullenHOST
60:54
It will have a la- more lasting legacy for people maybe tuning into their first-ever fight or going to their first-ever fight, uh, that it's happening on UK soil.
Tris DixonGUEST
61:03
Yeah, I feel so.
Tris DixonGUEST
61:04
And, and, you know, I was at C- I was at the Principality, then the Millennium Stadium when Joe Calzaghe fought Mikkel Kessler in, I think, 2007, uh, in, uh, November, so it was chilly.
Tris DixonGUEST
61:14
It was cold.
James WhithamHOST
59:07
I, I mean, the big thing...
James WhithamHOST
59:09
I think what he's probably thinking about is a bloke called Joe Calzaghe, who was a really talented and successful, uh, middleweight boxer.
Jack BurnicleHOST
59:17
Yeah.
James WhithamHOST
59:18
Uh, his dad was a musician.
Adam SmithHOST
11:13
Fight fans obviously happy that it's here.
Adam SmithHOST
11:15
But about whether it will be 2 o'clock in the morning, like happens, who was, or Kessler against Calzaghe.
Adam SmithHOST
11:23
Talk of Spencer Brown trying to get it earlier, maybe more a sort of midnight, 1 o'clock time.
Spencer OliverHOST
11:27
Yeah, I think it's not just Spencer Brown.
