Still gotta give it to Calzaghe, until further notice. Overall, Froch has had the better resume, but Joe squeezed those two HOFers (RJJ and Hopkins) in right at the end of his career.
RJJ will always be great, and Hopkins is the oldest champ in the sport (and still trucking), so Froch still has a bit of heavy lifting to do, in that aspect.

Froch's resume still has a lot of time left on it, before he can be considered great. Fighters get noticed for fighting great fighters (with names) with one foot out of the door, Froch hasn't done that yet.
Do I like Joe? Hell no. Is he more recognized than Froch right now? Yes
