    Froch wins

    Reid retires in corner with shoulder injury.

    So Froch beats Reid who had a close fight with Calzaghe.

    Reid went 8 rounds with Lacy but could only last 5 against Froch.

    Calzaghe could only beat Lacy on points.

    Carl Froch has a legitimate claim to be the best in the world now, there's no stopping him!

    The claim of a shoulder injury is pretty irrelevant as Froch had Reid down three times

    I'd like to see Carl Froch fight an actual person and not a punching bag. Reid is the ONLY name on his entire list and he's so far shot it would be like George Foreman comming back to fight NOW.

    I'd like to see him beat someone who's in the top20 of the SMW division.

    So does this mean that Froch is WBC no 1 and soon to be Calzaghe's mandatory?

    Yes, although as Joe looks like he will vacate all three belts, Froch will no doubt get a shot at one of the vacant titles with Lacy,Bika,Mundine,Taylor,Pascal, and of course, Kessler also in the shake up

    FFS Robin is 36 years old fighting against a hungry contender at his prime. Cut him some slack. He deserved one final hurrah against a big name opponent and got it. He is a warrior who doesn't need to prove anything to anyone.
