I think fighting at the top of your sport for all them years and having that structure and routine, you know, you train every day, you know when you have to train and then what happened to me personally, the more big fights I had, I fight twice a year, so I used to manage it okay where I used to live in the gym early in my career, at the end of my career, when you get bigger fights, bigger money you can afford to go on better holidays, I\u2019d have that big gap, so I would probably be partying a little bit between fights, and then parties become a bit longer, then I\u2019d have that training camp, where I\u2019d be training, but then, when it\u2019s finished, you haven\u2019t got that training camp anymore, you haven\u2019t got that euphoria, you ain&#8217;t got that buzz, and that sacrifice, where you lose all that weight, and then it&#8217;s just a big gap there.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Asked whether fighters should be given information packs about how to best take the next steps, Calzaghe admitted:&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":241878,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,6102,10078,76279,4204,101,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-241877","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-boxing","8":"tag-boxing","9":"tag-boxing-news","10":"tag-boxingscene","11":"tag-joe-calzaghe","12":"tag-retirement","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241877","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=241877"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241877\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/241878"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=241877"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=241877"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=241877"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
