What boxer doesn't talk smack and try to make a name for themselves with a bigger name fighter? Calzaghe will beat Froch any day of the week. I don't see why Froch doesn't call out Kessler or Bute and unify the belts 1st and then start calling out the big fish. Crawl before you start running.

Please tell me how Froch beats Calzaghe??

His power is average, his defense is piss poor, Joe would rip him a new one it would be a one sided beatdown.

[Hunter]

Yeah - lets see Froch beat Taylor and than Kessler and than maybe he can call out Joe...

I dont think there is a fighter at 168 or 175 that can beat Joe.

I hate to sound like im just hatin on him but he hasn't really done anything at all in his career. So far it's like he's a good pro boxer, with on arright career who hasn't tested himself at a world class level.

So why invite the critisicm this sort of talk is gonna get you.

I could say the same thing, would you believe me ?

Why on earth is Froch any more highly regarded now than he has ever been? Because he was in a good action fight against Pascal, nevermind the fact that Pascal isn't anything remotely special himself? It's odd to me how a fighters stock can go up just because they were forced to dig down and fight hard, when it was against a somewhat ordinary opponent they did so. If anything that fight reinforced his limitations. Im fairly out of the loop recently, is the Taylor fight still on? I give Froch very little chance in that one if so. Calzaghe would toy with him, that wouldn't even be a fight imo , and certainly not one worth coming out of retirement for from Joe's perspective, unless Froch is really a big enough draw domestically. Id really only want to see Calzaghe fight Dawson if he did want to keep on, but I guess considering Chad is rematching Tarver you couldn't complain to much if he did fight Froch.

Who give a fuck what Froch said,Calzaghe has retire so the fight will never happen

[Nameless]

I consider Kessler to be a lot more dangerous than Froch in every ways possible, same for Bute, seeing how Joe did play with Kessler, I fairly assume that Froch would be shredded the same way if not worst. I give him credit for calling out Joe, it is a proof of courage I suppose, but I will give him the credit he owes the day he'll call out pubicly Bute and Kessler too.

As we all know i hate Joe Calzaghe , but ive seen nothing in Froch that suggests he could ever beat Calzaghe , Froch should put up and shut up , as he is fast becomming a legend in his own mind.

[feeney]

Just incase of confusion i dont think froch would beat calzaghe, Not even close.

Yep this sums up Joe.He (Joe) would win the fight on the cards but thats it, no beat down. Froch has never seen the canvas as a rookie or pro.And Calzaghe dont have k.o power,last person he even tko'd was manfredo and that was a bad call.

froch will get banged

[JonnyFolds]

haha
bang bang bang out goes froch.

Calz has power. He can back up his opponents. If he didn't have power they would stand there in the pocket and time him when he throws his "weak" punches. Kessler is Joe's greatest triumph imo. He (Kess) will not see another defeat in his career. Beat the Viking Warrior better than Joe did and I will give any1 props.

Just wish Kessler would fight some more world class opponents. He kind of ducked in his shell after the Calz fight.

We don't really know how good Pascal is. He was unbeaten coming into the Froch fight and it was a hell of a fight both fighters did themselves proud and came to fight.

It's not really fair to say he's nothing just because he lost a war with Froch, and its not fair to say Froch is nothing because he struggled to beat him.

All I know for certain is that they both showed a tremendous amount of heart and courage in their fight, with both fighters hungry for the title and trying to win the belt right to the final bell.

Pascal has not beaten any world beaters but he's fought and beaten the same guys that the likes of Andre Ward, Arthur Abraham, Henry Bucanan and Yusaf Mack have built their records on along the way and beaten them just like they did, maybe not as spectacualrly I don't know but the point is he hadn't slipped up along the way and was clearly a cut above that level and therefore not far off the world's best at 168.

It will be interesting to see how he comes back, I'd certainly be happy to watch him fight.
