        win over lacy > hometown decision over dirrell

        I couldn't care about either, but credit where credit is due...

        Eubank = Taylor. Both past prime, and arguably shot. Eubank was also weight drained, he took the fight on a two weeks notice when his prior fight at CW or LW (cant remember) was canceled.

        Reid = Dirrell. Case can be made that the other man won.

        Pascal = Lacy. Lacy was good but way overhyped. Pascal is a good fighter and is continuing to prove so .

        Kessler? I don't think he is shot, he didn't look to bad against Ward, who should have had a 3 or 4 points deduction. A dominating performance with a K.O win would near equal Calzaghe's win.

        I don't think Froch has a better resume if he wins but if he were too put in two dominating performance over his next two fights you will be hard pressed not to then compared the two.

        Having said that I can't see Froch getting past AA tbh.

          calzaghes whole body of work trumps frochs anyway,that isnt in doubt

          Id be surprised if froch beats kessler but even if he does things will get ugly agaist AA,the guy hits like a truck and froch hangs his chin out there.

              Well 20 defenses or 10 years as champion however way you look at it is a impressive feat on its own, however there are some very suspect defenses in there, a few too many. If Froch goes on to win the torny, which I doubt though, he betters Calzaghe's resume over a 2 year peroid.
