        Excuse me, sir, where does it say Calzaghe had signed a deal? Nobody has ever said that on here, as far as I'm aware. The "deal" got right up to the last stage, though.

        This is simple:

        * Calzaghe was a big risk for not much reward back in 2002.
        * Froch is an easy fight for Hopkins right now.

        That's why Froch is suddenly magically in a position to fight Hopkins, because Bernard likes picking on what he thinks are one-dimensional white boys.

        Froch isn't a super hero for taking a fight with Bernard (if he does take the fight). Bernard CHOSE Froch because he knows he can beat him easily.
        You are unaware. I hear it all the time from noobs to the great sport of boxing. People have this beleieve that Joe Calzaghe signed with everyone, including Jones and Hopkins..... and as far as him being a BIG risk..... no he was a NOBODY that didnt bring any money to the table and didnt want to leave his back yard. But does it matter? The dudes long gone and no one really cares at all other than Froch.

        Anyway "sir" I'm not stating that Froch OR Hopkins are anything. I'm saying if Froch fights Hop he will lose and lose BADLY. That is it.

        I dont understand what your even getting at other than commenting on the Joe Calzaghe contract issue.

            Riiiiight, which is why Hopkins has fought a total of two white boys to date and 40+ black ones. pfffffffffft

            Froch isn't a super hero for taking a fight with Bernard (if he does take the fight). Bernard CHOSE Froch because he knows he can beat him easily.
            Froch said a long time ago he'd like to fight Hopkins (he was saying for a while how he wants big money fights). Only after Froch KO'd Taylor did Hopkins express interest.

              I know Hopkins aint ****** enough to drain himself but when you think about it he's 44 years old so his performance could still lapse a bit but maybe not .

                Imagine if Froch won, he would be close to matching Calzaghes resume already

                  Froch can only win by KO/TKO against Hopkins, and that would never ever happen.

                    According to Bernard Hopkins, WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch can become a superstar if he decides to accept his offer for a fight. Hopkins, 44, is willing to close out his career by moving down from light heavyweight to challenge Froch for his title. Froch made a big impact on April 25 by coming off the floor in the third round and battling his way to knockout of Jermain Taylor with only 14-seconds left in the fight. [details]
                    I know hopkins is a legend and no one can tell him anything, but WTF hopkins?! Froch?! he's the weakest of the 168 lbers.

                    atleast fight kesler.
