    Walk through Joe Calzaghe's punches..?

    Carl Froch was buzzin off, Pascal in some stanges of their fight..

    And he started to buzz off Jermaine Taylor's bad intentions at times....

    Two fighters that hit harder maybe than Joe Calzaghe..?
     
  2. Yes he probably would but there would be lots and lots of them landing in his face for 12 rounds.

    I think Calzaghe's punches would still hurt him , he'd probably still look like elephant man after 12 rounds

    Froch would have a good chance if they fought later this year... no question of a doubt.

    Nope. Nobody has ever walked through Calzaghe's punches. Quite the opposite, every opponent has been on the retreat. Don't see that changing with Carl, especially when he can't defend himself.

    Everybody who's fought Calzaghe says that he hits harder than you first think.

    Add in the volume of shots and the constant movement - Froch would gas early and get cut up badly.

    A prime Calzaghe would stop Froch. He faded one would still out-point him comfortably.

    I don't know what delusional world he is in thinking he can beat Calzaghe.

    No, just like Kessler, Hopkins, Jones and many others couldn't, Froch wouldn't. Taylors speed greatly troubled Froch. Froch can have issues with a Magee and Taylor approach. Quick shots all over gets him. No way in hell would Froch have an answer for what Joe does for every second of every round. Joe would be touching him so much you'd think he was a homo. Head and body would be ruined. Froch has nothing for Joe except a mouth and a punch and I don't think either gets to Calzaghe,.

    Maybe early on, but eventually those slaps would start to hurt, given the speed and volume at which they come.

    Its funny, but true.

    Froch hasnt got the tools to deal with Joe's footwork, speed, adaptability and stamina.
