Froch/Calzaghe! Caption this pic:

[ross]

He would have been in his twenties and have had fights still numbering in the teens...
So yeah Joe wanting to fight him then and Froch turning it down don't surprise me.

Different story now, judged as a Champion - who hasn't Froch fought? Who has he turned down? Nobody. The same cannot be said of Calzaghe.

The biggest win I can give him is Kes.

Hahahaha!

Froch was 30 and had 21 fights! reid was his 22nd! By contrast, when Calzaghe was scheduled to challenge Collins he hadnt been a pro 4 years yet and had 22 fights. Froch was so slow about moving his career but when offered the chance of a boost he went quiet.

This was in 2007 before Calzaghe fought Kessler.

Dont forget it it was Froch who was calling Calzaghe out everywhere but when offered the fight he shit his pants and sat back down.

If We are judging Calzaghe purely on the Kessler fight then he is better than Froch...
