    Joe wouldve beaten him.

    but Froch has the better resume

    Calzaghe decision all day. Joe could be caught and dropped, but I'd still pick Joe by points regardless a knockdown.

    Nice to see this clip. If Froch could have been as gentlemanly as this from the start of his pro career, he would be a superstar now.

    Calzhage would UD Froch at this time of Froch's career. It would be another Ward-Froch like fight

    Thats a good clip and Froch is being suprisingly classy, considering some of the things he has said about Joe over the years.

    Seriously it would not have been a great fight. Calzaghe would have dismantled him. He is just a level above Froch.

    agree with cellz, froch better resume and tougher opponents, however in a ring together joe wins comfortably.

    In all fairness Froch admits this.

    I think its a cracking interview and they both come off very well.

    If both fought in their primes it would be a close fight.

    Head says Joe on points but heart says Froch by KO.

    Froch is actually spot on here.

    "He has a phenomenal work rate and would do me on points if it went the distance".

    This is what happened to everyone Joe met.

    1. Kessler was ahead on points after 6 rounds and Joe thought he was gonna loose (only time in his career he thought that) .. but then in r7 he saw that Kessler was breathing hard.. and he thought he would win.

    3. Hopkins arguably won a round or two of the first rounds, but after that he could not keep up with Joe's work rate at all.

    3. Even RJJ looked ok for a round or two.

    ___________

    Joe by far has the best stamina the division has ever seen and this is why I think he would also beat Ward. Because it does not matter much who the better fighter is against Joe... because after a few rounds.. it is hard to do those things anyway when breathing hard etc.

    Nice to see the respect between two great British fighters.

    Only Johnny Nelson could make a complete fool of himself in that situation. He is a complete and utter clown.

    Calzaghe looks very fidgety and nervous in the video. Anyone notice? Hands in the pockets, can't look Froch in the eye.
