Nope, he wanted CALZAGHE!
Say what you will about Froch mate, but don't say he doesn't want to fight the best fighters out there. ;)
Adam what I am on about he belittle Cleverly's WBO title but wanted Calzaghes, would you not say
Froch is a Hippocratic and thats what I meant.;D
I think what you actually meant is "Froch is a hypocrite." "Hippocratic" refers to the oath taken by medical doctors, after Hippocrates.
(Though for the reasons AdamGB explained, Froch is not a hypocrite.)

Re: Nathan Cleverly. Being screwed by the WBO.
Isn’t this a case of Cleverly trying to screw the WBO by having another easy defence when they have a mandatory challenger? Warren will pull some strings as he has a bit of influence of this title.

mate i am a massive calzaghe fan, and he was a genuine world champion whilst he was the WBO world champion
but i dont see the WBO as a major world title
it might be 4th in line it might not but either way it is long way behind the top 3

Why?
Over the past 20 years dozens of "great" fighters have held the WBO title.
Oscar, Pac, Hopkins, Morales, Barrera, Marquez, Naz, Lopez, Cotto, Corales, Castillo, McClellan, Benn, Winky, Guzman, Tapia, Morrison, Duke McKenzie, Enzo Macc, Herbie Hide.
That's a serious effing list and i've left shitloads out.
Re: Nathan Cleverly. Being screwed by the WBO.
Obviously it's just a belt and many great fighters have held it; however it does seem to serve as a glorified domestic title whenever a Brit gets a hold of one. Warren clearly has a very cozy relationship with the orginization as they are always incredibly lenient on his fighters.

That's true.
Warren surely can dress up rubbish mismatches as "world" title fights. That's why the WBO love him.

I started this thred. If anybody other than you doesnt get it I WAS BEING SARCASTIC. When you use words like POOR WARREN can you really take that seriosly. Basically it is the other way round. WBO want them to fight a guy ranked 9 in the world but they want to fight another loser with a shit record. Next time I think I will have to write "I AM BEING SARCASTIC" at the end of my post.

Ok then. :)
Re: Nathan Cleverly. Being screwed by the WBO.
WBO has Chad Dawson 7th.
Pascal not ranked
Cloud not ranked
Hopkins not ranked.
Shumenov not ranked
Campillo not ranked
Diaconu not ranked
Erdei not ranked
Sillakh not ranked
HOw is a WBO belt worth a damn thing?
And if Cleverly is a champ what is he doing fighting a guy whose last 5 opponents were 70-50. Krasniqi didn't face a single guy that is decent in his 5 fights.
For example, ring ranked Gabriel Campillo's last 5 opponents were 92-13.
WBO has Krasniqi ranked 4th. If Ring magazine, ESPN, or any other legitimate sports site ranked the top 25 fighters at 175, Krasniqi doesn't make the list.

When Suhotsky can be ranked number 1 when Dawson is 7, Pascal, Cloud, Hopkins, Campillo, Shumenov, Erdei, and Sillakh, are not ranked, then how could he ever complain about being screwed by anything?
