Froch never cleaned out a division or won all the belts.
And he was never a Ring Champion in any division, while Joe was Ring Champion in two divisions.

Ruben Carter's win over Emile Griffith is better than anything on Calzaghe and Froch's resume but together.
Does this mean Carter is greater than them? No, obviously not.

It's close. Calzaghe is so overrated it's not even funny. The guy has wins over Hopkins (questionable), Kessler, Lacy, Bika, and not much else.
Froch has wins over Pascal, Dirrell (questionable), Abraham, and Bute.
I'd go with Calzaghe on the strength of getting the W over Hopkins, and winning titles in 2 weight classes. But if Froch gets say 3 more good wins, and possibly goes to 175 and grabs a title, it'll be really close and hard for me to say his whole resume isn't better than Calzaghe's.

He knows the end is near and I think he's only looking to fight 3 or 4 more times (including Mack) maximum.

Could see it happening but I don't think Froch is too interested. His main focus is avenging his loss to Kessler, I believe.
