    Getting Calzaghe's weight down to 168Lbs was a struggle half a decade ago. He must weigh at least 200Lbs right now.

    It would take at least six months of weight loss, conditioning work, sparring and simulated fights (as Ray Leonard did when facing Hagler) for Joe to be even remotely prepared for a comeback.

    The Calzaghe who met Lacy would spank last week's Froch.......and today's Joe might be able to put in a useful 2 round spar. But he wouldn't have anything like the fitness, timing, reflexes to do much more; certainly not within 6 weeks.

      Carl froch will get knocked out within 4 rounds or less.....There's levels to this *****

      carl froch is not a world champion never has been and never will be

      If andre ward beat mikkel kessler for the world championship an then kessler beats froch then ward beats froch.........How can carl froch be the world champion?......

      Calzaghe vs Froch is a mismatch....Carl froch's next fight should be against someone on his level he should fight for the central area or english title

      callum smith or rocky fielding will be 50/50 fights for carl froch



      Froch should forget about the rematch with George Groves for british and Commonwealth championship he can't mix it at that level.

        Calzaghe would beat Froch via UD most likely at this point. A few years ago, KO/TKO without a doubt. I think Joe beats Froch like he did RJJ even at this point in time

          As a huge Zaghe fan... he wouldn't beat Froch with a six week camp from years of retirement :|
