    To be fair Joe said the same thing, which is more ridiculous. Although a TKO is definitely possible because a lot of punches probably would go un answered.

    What's most delusional, is actually Froch saying Pascal may have beaten any top guy.

    Now that, is delusional. It was Calzaghe's old vacated belt, which you were lucky enough to fight a much lesser fighter to win it, and still just.

    Carl is a wee bit big for his boots unfortunately, because if he faces Taylor and Kessler within the next 18 months, I almost guarantee he'll come away with a loss. Not so for Calzaghe.

      Talking about Kessler when will he fight another top guy again?

      Id hate to see him waste his skills.

        Im from the Hometown of Carl and even I say he isn't that good.

        He takes too many shots, so basically he has a heart, Chin, Power... too bad he lacks some of the fundemental defence he needs.

              Froch has gotten to Calzaghe of late. If you listen to Calzaghe's latest comments (here; http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_AOIHqtFjtg) you can tell that he doesn't want the Froch fight (even though I think it will be quite a big fight) and is making all sorts of excuses to justify not doing so.

              Froch on the other hand seems a more intelligent man. He doesn't seem as 'desperate' and flawed as Calzaghe in his reasoning either.

              I personally think that Calzaghe has been on the slide for some time. It's just that fighting two, over-the-hill fighters in his last two fights hasnt allowed people to see that. I believe that Froch would give him a mega fight.

                Carl Froch knows himself he has limitations, that is why he is looking for one big pay day.

                  Yea exactly.

                  If I was Joe I wouldn't do it, it wouldn't be big in America and do good numbers in England but that won't be much, plus there won't be much credit.

                  Maybe if Carl can land some of them bombs Joe might struggle.

                    Carl Froch has nothing, nothing at all to offer Calzaghe. Dawson or Hopkins II are the only fight Calzaghe should consider now. Froch is slow, has no defence and gets hit with pretty much every punch in the book and easily.
                    Joe is faster than Pascal and has much better stamina something that proved to be a problem against Froch for Pascal. Froch wouldn't win a round, Hopkins would school Froch, Kessler would school Froch, Dawson would school Froch. He's not on their level.

                      Froch offers Calzaghe nothing legacy wise. the guy won a vacant title against someone no-one had heard of.

                      He should be looking at Taylor or Kessler, at least a Taylor fight is winnable.
