Strictly Come Dancing contestant Joe Calzaghe has claimed that he has "hit the jackpot" after being paired with Kristina Rihanoff.

Speaking to the Radio Times, the former boxer admitted that he had been worried about appearing on the show.

He said: "I was nervous about doing this, but hit the jackpot getting Kristina for a partner. We get on really well.

"My dancing experience is zero so I'm starting with a clean slate."

Meanwhile, Rihanoff joked that it was nice to be partnered with someone "fitter and more focused" than last year, when she was paired with John Sergeant.

Calzaghe added: "Whatever happens, it's got to be more fun than getting punched in the head."

The duo recently denied rumours that they are dating.
