    Froch as he consistantly takes risks and pushes himself, Joes record is 95% laughable

    Joe Calzaghe had 46 fights

    If we turn your percentage into fights then you are saying 2.3 of his fights are not laughable.

    Which fights are these?

    Like refusing to fight a tiny middleweight in Germany who had just been schooled in his last fight. He even threatened to pull out of the Super Six if didn't get his own way.

    What about his next fight against a 42-year-old with 14 defeats?

    Totally ridiculous or ignorant for anyone to believe Froch has a better resume than Calzaghe at this time. Overall Calzaghes is alot better but also alot longer.
    When Froch beat Pascal, Pascal hadnt done a great deal as a SMW and was no better a win at the time than Sheika when Calzaghe beat him. Pascal has gone on to do well and is a good scalp now.
    Taylor was a good away win, but at SMW Taylor hadnt done much and at SMW wasnt as good a victory as Byron Mitchell on Calzaghes record. Thats not saying Mitchell is better or worse than Taylor.
    Dirrell is a SMW that hasnt achieved much and isnt as good a win as Mario Veit.
    Abraham is a former MW champ who had lost his last fight and not done alot at SMW and isnt as good a SMW win as Lacy.
    The main names on Frochs resume Magee, Reid (faded), Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell and Abraham. Kessler beat Froch who Calzaghe beat.
    The names on Calzaghes resume Eubank, Kessler (who beat Froch), Reid & Woodhall who were better SMW victories than Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell, Abraham and Magee, Brewer, Mitchell (the 2 time WBA champ who had never been convincingly beaten and is a better victory than most of the above), Veit, Mkertchyan (done more at SMW than Dirrell), Starie, Bika, Manfredo, Lacy, Jones (faded), Hopkins.

    Work it out for yourselves
