    Joe would school Froch I think...
    Tunney you are being very generous saying he is B level. I would say he is a C level or a club fighter at best. His chin and determination are his only tools. he has a decent punch but they are so well telegraphed that anyone with a pulse and one good eye should be able to avoid them. Much like Taylor was for the first 7 rounds or so....Lefty

      If Froch can beat Taylor he sure as hell can beat Sloppy Joe.It's not like Joe is a beast or some great fighter.

      Beating Taylor is better than anything Joe has ever done.

              Is that jive or pidgeon?

              Maybe you're just mentally ******ed. Or minimal schooling. I pity you.

              I hope the BBC take their Sports Personality Of The Year away from Calzaghe for his cowardly behaviour

                the only guys that trouble joe are smart defensive fighters like hopkins.froch has a very amaturish style and walks straight forward,hes flat-footed with no defence or head movement.it would be another lacy style fight

                  Calzaghe would pull another Lacy on Froch... One sided beat down by Joe. Forch is like a watered down version of Andrade... but i still think Andrade has better skills.

                    I would pick this fight as a comfortable UD for Joe.
                    However...
                    Am I the only one who believes that Froch's lack of technique could actually improve his chances against Joe? Joe Calzaghe's famous as the guy who "spoils your boxing" (Kessler). Joe has an astounding ability to nullify a fighter's technique, but let's face it, Froch is no master technician. To sum up Froch in a sentence I'd say "He's a fighter who punches with his heart". I just wonder if his particular style (or the lack thereof) would pose some problems for Joe. Any thoughts?

                      I'm not sure who would win,but I liked what I saw from Froch,he has a big heart,looks strong as an ox and can take a punch!!!I'd like to see him fight again,24 pro fights is not enough to mess with JC though!!
