    He's good but hey the SM's are pretty even he knows his money making ability is at it's peak right now OF COURSE he wants the big fights.

    He doesn't care if he loses he just wants a multi million contract fight and a rematch / comeback fight should he lose.

    He did call out Kessler, and Kessler has stated that he would like to fight Froch! So there is hope to finally se Kessler in real action again! if not Palle skrews it up..

    I loved Froch's call out to Calzaghe at the end of the Taylor fight..sums Froch up!!

    " get out of your arm chair, i dont htink hes got the bottle, ITS ONLY BOXING DONT WORRY ABOUT IT" ROFL

    thats class....basically saying to joe dont be worried about losing your undefeated record lets have a scrap. Froch isnt afraid to lose, hes got integrity he wants to face whoever. you know that touched a nerve in Joes system!! he retaliated the next day in the paper slagging of Froch's win....ROFL stating Taylor had seen better days....(ummm....like Jones and Hopkins then Joe?? rofl)

    Calzaghes recent comments tell you everything about Joes mentality.

    " I wouldnt come out of retirement , i dont want to lose my undefeated record"

    that basically tells you everything... a career about preservation....no great naMES IN THEIR PRIME ON THE RECORD SO THE ONLY THING TO LEAN BACK ON is the record.

    I'm not too big on his abilities. He can want all the big fights out there, but as soon as he tastes his first loss and losses his belt he will quickly become the most avoided opponent north of Paul Williams.

    It does not take a lot of balls to continue to call out guys you know are not available, nor is it admirable.

    Says the man who lost the avatar bet after Froch came over to Taylor's soil and knocked him out.

    Who should he call out, clever ass ?

    You dont hear Bute or Kessler putting press releases out to fight Froch do you ? exactly.

    Busy fighting bums thats why.

    Froch stated the next day that he really wasn't trying to call Joe out he was just trying to prove a point to the guy because Calzaghe had always belittled a fight between them. Basically he was just trying to **** Calzaghe off. He wasn't mentioned the guys name since.

    Hey like the guy said its only boxing. And win lose or draw the most important part is that you get paid wel for doing it. I don't mind his attitude even if he sets himself up for the fall.

    Two reasons for that.

    a) he's the most avoided fighter in the division

    b) he had a few injuries that took a while to clear up

    Also froch went with a small time promoter hennesy, he didnt have a frank warren to manufacture is career. Youknow for sure he would have gone the WBO route. Froch has more integrity than that.

    I love his attitude

    I'm not talking about Joe. i realize he calmed down on that front, but . . . .

    Kessler: tangled up in a law suit.
    Bute: busy until after the andrade rematch.
    Pavlik: not available.
