    I think Calzaghe would have beaten Froch. Don't forget Froch went life and death with Kessler twice and Calzaghe beat a prime Kessler without too much trouble. I know there's triangle theories there but i think Calzaghe would have schooled Froch.

        Same could be said for just about all the guys Froch has beaten including Groves

          Has this been debatable?

          Froch's resume craps all over Calzaghe's.

            I'm not even speaking head to head, I'm talking resume wise and what both accomplished in the ring. If you want to talk head to head however, Roy Jones Jr is apparently the GOAT.

            On that note though, I think Froch would give Calzaghe absolute hell.

              Besides, fantasy fights doesn't really count.

              Froch's resume is miles better than Calzaghes.

                  Not in my mind but to some people it has. After tonight there's really no argument to make anymore, at this age Calzaghe was fighting 40+ year old men, Froch is knocking out young hungry fighters in their primes.

                    lol at people clinging to fantasy fights as the only reason calzaghe is better.

                      I agree.

                      Calzaghe is 3 times the speed or Groves with much better footwork and stamina with an excellent chin or recuperation.

                      I like Froch now, and I was a big hater, but he is a beast who does fight people.

                      However Calzaghe is too busy, a south paw, very good chin and very fast with a much better jab than Carl. He also didn't gad out which is a key for Froch.
