Al Pacino - Pacino Lends Support To Calzaghe

Hollywood actor AL PACINO has declared his support for British boxer JOE CALZAGHE - insisting watching him fight is "almost like acting".

The Scarface star has followed Calzaghe's career closely and has travelled abroad to watch him box on several occasions.

The sportsman is currently gearing up for his first fight in the U.S. on 19 April (08) in Las Vegas against American Bernard Hopkins.

And Pacino is going to be supporting the Welsh boxer all the way.

He says, "Not many people know Calzaghe but he is an amazing boxer, as is Bernard Hopkins. So it is going to be the most amazing fight, I am so looking forward to seeing it.

"(Watching Calzaghe fight) was almost like acting."
