    is trying to better Calzaghe's resume intentionally? Or do you think he doesn't give a **** and would be fighting these fights anyway?

    I'm a big Froch fan but have been wondering this lately.

    I don't see that Froch has much choice tbh , he's got very little recognition fighting the top guys so he would be ****ed fighting bums

    It's nothing to do with Calzaghe but I'd always will say that Calzaghe will go down in history as a better fighter than Froch unless Froch wins the super 6, beats Bute and Martinez then maybe.

    Froch is building his own career without having a choice at the moment as to who he faces, he's taking the hard route because he has too. There are no easy fights for him at the moment.

    i really dont think any fighter gives a **** about another fighter like that.

    everyone tries to solidify their own legacy.

    More to the point, does he even have to try?

    Im a huge Froch fan also and think he would be fighting these fights anyway. You can tell when a fighter has ball's or he doesn't.

    It is definitely on his mind and he made comments about it a long time ago. He never got that shot and he claimed he'd win if they met. Fighting and beating the best is his way of shoing what he would have done.

    Froch is a valiant warrior who does his country proud but he would be lucky to win 2 rounds against Smokin Joe.

    I know he has balls and i think he is great. There are not many like him especially in this country. Hennessy could be a blessing in disguise when you look back later.

    Carls career doesn't revolve round Joe Calzaghe
