    The answer to the question is yes, but the answer to the question, if Froch had wings could he fly? is also yes.

    Since when did Calzaghe beat Hopkins anyway?

    If Froch escapes without a loss, his Resume would be leaps and bounds above Calzaghe's .... hard to say if the British Calzaghe fans would see Froch as greater, but I think the majority of the boxing public would.

    I give him credit for the BHOP win. Eubank was a good win, but not great.

    But he shouldn't get almost any credit for his win over Jones, who just was completely past it.

    To answer the TS question, he would be catching up to Calzaghe if he actually won.

    But IMO he won't win, specially against Kessler.

    froch pounds calzaghe's record out of the park if he does it - but i think its a fantasy question.

    calzaghe's a much better fighter than froch.

    No doubt about that but his resume just isn't that impressive.

    You are asking him to do quite a lot in order to surpass him. Has calzaghe really done that much in his career?
