    Calzaghe's washed up

    "Jones in his day was unbeatable but I think Joe will be realistic about it. Who he fought and what he beat in there was 40 per cent of what Jones used to have.
    "Unless he's ****** and thinks he's beaten a legend and the best fighter in the world, I'm sure he knows what he's done.

    "He fought an old man who was well past his prime

    Joe doesn't pack a big punch and he's past his best as well, which is why he hasn't stopped anyone lately.'

    "I wasn't surprised he didn't knock Jones out because he hasn't got it in him."
    That was Froch quoted in the sun.

    Agree or disagree?

    i agree that jones werent his best, which is obvious, but i dont think that it was 40 % of the prime jones. i dont think froch should be running his mouth off like this anyway lol, calzaghe is in a different league to him.

      This version of roy jones jr, would knock froch out. Froch needs to shut the **** up, no one likes him. He is getting older by the day, and Froch still hasn't proved anything to boxing fans other then beating a washed up robin reid.

      Charlie Zelenoff knocks Froch out... Just kidding...

        The Roy Jones Jr. in the ring with Calzaghe would knock out Carl Froch.

              I certainly dont agree with the title of the thread, with the exception of round one Joe was a revelation, great speed, stamina, workrate. There was even some fantastic defensive work, the way he slipped punches was almost Ray Leonard like.......and lets face it Jone's handspeed was not exactly slow.

              Jones is not quite washed up, he is probably still a world top 10 light heavy who would have competitive matches with the likes of Hopkins, Tarver or Woods, its just that hes no longer the elite.....age is the factor.

              As for Froch, he'll never end up in the same ring as Calzaghe unless he meets and KOs Kessler...and I doubt that will happen.

                  What does that mean? agree? disagree?

                  Froch is in immense shape and hits as hard/harder than anybody in the SW LHW division, i don't think RJ could deal with the power.

                  Froch has a great chin, great stamina and great power.
