      Yeah, it's almost to the level of the Calzaghe hype.

        No one but Carl Froch.

        Carl Froch is the only guy who can beat Calzaghe. Calzaghe wins his fights because of his work rate and his high pain threshold. Froch is the same type of guy but punches with proper form. Proper form = more damage caused.

        Carl Froch would beat Calzaghe.

          Definitely andre ward is the only one capable of doing the job, whether he would or not is a different story, I think ward would pick calzaghe off with counters but joe would put the pressure on and outwork him so it might be pretty close, both guys can fight well on the inside, think ward is better from the outside, though it seems to me that if you put the pressure on he gets flustered, and looks to hit and hold on.

          The great thing about joe is he can go in there and do so many different things and adapt to different types of fighters, I think thats what makes him competitive against all the greats, plus he is tough as hell and his ability to make people miss is underrated.

            i expected andre ward to get a bit over-rated after the kessler win to be honest,so the poll doesnt surprise me

              I would give Ward the best chance though I can't say that I would be confident about betting on any of those fighters to beat Joe.

              AA and Green have a punchers chance.

                  Yeah because beating up on Lacy proves how he would do v. Roy Jones.

                      Roy stomps him in six and laughs his ass off doing it.
