    Froch has done reall well in recent years and i am a fan and usually want him to win but come on, he is no Calzaghe, he would not beat Joe prime for prime, no chance and Joe would/has beat everyone Froch has recently

    Calzaghe's right in what he's saying.

    Considering what he was up to in glasgow a few weeks back I don't think there is much chance of him stepping back in a ring anytime soon. I won't say what else he was doing whist he was out drinking in glasgow as I don't want a lawsuit, but I think we could all guess as he has form...

    The opponents Froch has beaten would have been handled with ease by Calzaghe. How do people think Carl Froch would have done against the following?

    Chris Eubank
    Nigel Benn
    Jeff Lacy
    Sakio Bika
    Steve Collins
    Henry Wharton

    I don't think he towers above some of these does he? :good well not just yet anyway.

    froch kessler 2 was the battle to determine the 2ND best super middleweight in the world.. the distance between the first (ward) and 2nd (froch) super middleweight was what you saw in the ward froch fight... an absolute schooling..
     
  7. It's a laugh when Joe and enzo try to pick apart someone else's record

    He talks about fighting a blown up MW in Taylor (who beat Hopkins) then Kessler who he lost fighting him in Denmark (which Joe never did) and beat him at home, equaling what Joe did. puts negative spin on beating Bute...but is always going on about beating Lacy (Bute is a much better boxer),

    Maybe Carl should have fought Manfredo Jr or Tocker Pudwill a few times, then maybe Joe and Enzo would give him more dues hahahaha

    Carl got a lot of **** at the start with some of the things he kept on saying, but he fought the best and paid his dues. now he's getting the credit he deserves, i really hope he doesn't start the stupid talk again. he could sink to the bottom very quickly if he's not careful. the fans could go as quick as they came.
     
  9. Joe can't give Carl **** for losing to Ward...as he never fought a fighter like him in they're prime.

    If he had fought Roy Jones, Hopkins maybe gone up and fought a Tarver or Chad Dawson. I would have even give him credit for fighting Taylor, Glen Johnson or Pavlik when peaople wanted the fight then maybe he could critisise other boxers. Fact is he didn't and is and was whats wrong with boxing
     
  10. Fight the best my arse!! his record is a joke

    It's like Carl beating Yusaf Mack 10 times

    For 10 years after he won the WBO he fought nobodies with a few half test's peppered in now and then

    If Calzaghe had fought all of Froch's opponents he would not have retired undefeated.

    :huh what the hell are you talking about? you don't think Carl fought the best? then what the hell has he been doing then?

    he's never won the WBO either.
