    Ugh. This is manifestly not a "super fight." No one outside the UK knows or cares who Carl Froch is. Calzaghe needs to fight Kessler, Taylor, Hopkins or Wright (and needs to make or accept serious offers (i.e., not demands Taylor come to Wales for the same money he'd get to fight someone else in Arkansas, or weird time-limited offers to Kessler) to make one of those fights happen).

    #561 Smash.

    I am sure that you'd return the favor...but after my response...I am sure that you won't.

    I hope that this fight happens & that Joe utterly destroys him & outboxes him down the stretch to a knockout. I am NO FAN of Froch.

    wack im curious to think what you think of Froch, everybody seems to think he is overrated? But to be honest who has rated him? I thought he looked good in the last fight and i believe he is a lot better than JC's last fighters right? I think if he has a good punch rate and mixes in the power i really could see a stoppage yano. He is an awesome fighter.

    Alot of people on here overrate him and Calzaghe would stop Froch in 9.

    Yes come to think of it Tam you have sort of changed my mind today if Calzaghe can't get fight with Jones or any of the others then maybe it would be good idea for Froch vs Calzaghe would be huge event in Uk must be better than Inkin fight anyway.

    I thought my mind powers would eventually work It does make sense though when you truely think about it? In all honesty i want him to fight Kessler but if not Kessler, Froch is always there and i do believe it was the best fight for him to take in the July period. It could only lead him onto the Kessler fight right?

    No way Calzaghe has another fight in July, its too soon

    I know his last fight was nothing but he still did weeks of hard training, I cant see Joe wanting to fight a non name like Froch so soon, maybe a big name but not Froch

    Ummmmmmmmmmm...hello...I think that was my question, Mr. ICB!

    All cock blockery aside...personally...I think that many MANY people hype him to the point of no return.

    I would like Froch if it weren't for his gotdam mouf. You see...it's like this...I hate mouthy ass fighters...I do. Even though Hopkins, Jones, & Floyd are among my favorites (...and YES! I do recognize the fact that they are mouthy) they have fought rateable fighters & are worthy of selling their show with their mouths.

    Froch is not.

    I like his power & he does have skills...but he is often wide ass open...just like Kessler is from time to time...hence the reason that I would rather see Kessler vs Froch.

    Also...Joe would beat Froch. There isn't a fighter around that can make Joe's output nor could they accomodate for his awkwardness, IWO.

    Anyhow, I will rise above your petty nationalism, trying to claim our nation's best fighter for your own (just like you did with Michael Owen in football), and I will agree with Wack's comments, for the most part. Whenever I watch Froch I always think that he is going to get caught, and dangling that lead so low gives me heart attacks. Also I reckon Joe would outwork him, and has the chin to come back if a lucky swing from Froch lands him on his bum.

    My question though Wack, is would you agree that your boys Hopkins, Jones and Floyd were mouthing off on their way to the peak? British fighters tend to be brought on slower than they are stateside, so he is still getting to his peak at the moment, and is entitled to a bit of self-promotion, even if it does lack decorum.

    I agree with the mouth part that he does open it up a lot of the time. But i have relised that every time he has opened up the mouth he has proved what he has said and for that i do give him respect. Everything he has said he has done and because of that i do think he could be going places. We can see his power is very dominanent and this is why i feel a bit worried for JC, if CF gets a good punch rate going and lands those lethal uppercuts, i can really see JC getting slowed down and hurt. I have a good feeling about CF in this fight and i do hope he doesnt get owned! But i do admit JC has the edges over CF but i think this will be JC hardest fight in years.
