    Lets not forget that the KD in round one happened as Froch was landing his own shot.
    I don't understand.

    The 9th was the first time Groves was hurt in the fight.

        No, again not true.

        There's plenty who feel Froch has a better resume than Calzaghe and plenty more who think they're atleast comparable.

          Yes hurt, but not badly. I was meaning that Groves was caught by a punch at the same time he knocked Carl down. What's to say while he was swinging back in the exchange that ended the fight, he doesn't clock and stop Froch? Or what about recover and coast to a decision win?

            Sure thing, bro.

              Froch is not that bad overall...
              He just didn't behave after his last fight. I also think that Hearn had his part into this -- he made Carl say ******ities.

                Because he wasn't hurt in the first round by that punch like he was in the 9th?

                  Ward is the only fighter on Froch's resume that would come close or beat Calzaghe.

                    No one's arguing that watching Calzaghe and Froch in the ring, Froch is the better fighter. At least I don't think anyone is.

                    But the resumes are very comparable, and Froch might have the edge. Especially since he has fought all his names basically in a crazy 5 year stretch with pretty much no break except for Yusuf Mack. Much better look than Calzaghe's career.

                      Lets get this straight. Calzaghe's resume is not only better, it ****s all over Froch's.

                      Calzaghe is the undisputed world champ in 2 weight divisions with like 24 title fight wins.

                      This is compared to Froch never being a real champ in any division and having 9 title fight wins. 2 OF THOSE WERE EVEN FOR VACANT TITLES.

                      =Not debatable.

                      A H2H matchup is not even worth discussing.
