    WHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT........Froch lost to the two best fighters he faced. You can't count those. Calslappy made the best of what he could with who he could and beat them all.:think

    I like the cat but he not in the same league as Eubanks. To me it's telling, that Eubanks was training at lhw b4 calz the moved str8 up to cw after.... He was shot.

    Reid was ok also Seemed like calz had a bit of assistance from the ref.

    Hopkins was old and actually won.

    Kessler was a good win.

    the answer to your irrelevant question is true, tyson was more shot, the same answer I inferred first time you asked. why wouldnt it be?

    now extend it to 43 year year old hop being primer than young hop, thats what you are failing to do. thats where the duck is if there is one, yours.

    What a Frochsucker.

    Froch lost to Calzaghe's half blind leftovers, how can he have a better resume?

    Forget the than P4P top 5, Lineal LHW Champion, future Hall of Famer, Bernard Hopkins.

    Froch doesn't even have anything on the Kessler win.

    Butes made twice more defences than Kessler, albeit with one title, and most people agree that Froch beat Bute MUCH more comprehensively than Joe beat Kessler. Sure, you need to figure in the loss to Kessler for Carl too, which evens things up.

    I am not a frochsucker! lol. But he is the local hero in my student town, I might have taken on board a little of the hype.

    No, it doesn't.

    Bute lost to Froch.

    Kessler didn't.

    Joe Calzaghe IMO, if Pascal can win the Kessler and Bute rematches though I realy would give the edge to Froch

    OK thats valid,but remember your argument is only valid because Froch was good enough to destroy Bute, not because he wasnt good enough. but why doesnt a landslide KO victory figure higher than a points win? Please explain why you can comfortably ignore that.

    As you ignore Froch's 8 streak fight of top primes.
