    Based on recent successes i'm not sure Calzaghe would have beaten Froch.

    No way in hell would Joe have knocked him out, he might have outboxed Froch for 12 rounds and won on points but thats if he would have made it that far , i could see Froch wiping him out in 7 or 8 rounds.

    Calzaghe UDs him wide , like 11-1 or 10-2 in rpunds, Calzaghe have a Granite chin, and have too much stamina punch put put and way better ring intelligence.

    Plain and simple Calzaghe is the way better fighter, you dont have to KO your opponent to prove you are better!!!

          No. Calzaghe has a very decent chin, and he took bombs from Kessler, who in my mind is a way better puncher than Froch.
          Calzaghe is too slick and fast for Froch, and has a superior stamina. Jermain Taylor gave Froch a boxing-lesson for 6 rounds before he gassed.
          Calzaghe would annihilate Froch, who is completely overrtaed since the Taylor-fight.

              I reckon Joe would have won a UD.

              But Granite Chin?
              Are you kidding me?

              He was knocked down in the 1st by old man 43 year old Hopkins and 40 year old RJJ, who should have retired bout 5 years ago.

              Sorry dude, His Chin is far far from granite, or any other kind of strong material.

                Calzaghe got that 'wake up' chin. It starts out cold, but once he gets knocked, he's up and ready to go. I imagine if he ever got stopped in a fight it would have to happen within 3 rounds.

                    What a bizarre statement. Yeah, he got KD'd, but to suggest that his chin is weak is unbelievable.
