Compared to actual skilled boxers...the man Rigondeaux in your avatar is a true skilled fighter, Calzaghe was work-rate and a good engine.
Calzaghe also 'lost' to Robin Reid and got a gift, Froch dominated him....triangle theories are irrelevant.Comment

Dunno. Froch could let a decision slip away without really landing significantly like he did against Ward. Say what you want about that weird hyper slappy style but it'd frustrate Froch who fights the best when his opponents are tiring out and looking for one big punch.Last edited by Fr3$h; 06-06-2014, 03:33 PM.Comment

i see it like this
from the starting bell Froch cuts the ring of & smiles while walking through Joe's weak slaps and smashes calzaghe with some hard venomous cobra combination strikes
Froch has the key to beating joe calzagje and meeting him
in the ring would be a dream come true for carl
thats why joe vacated so he didnt have to fight himComment

Joe would win....he'd win damn near every round imo....but Froch has walked the far more respectable path which is why he's liked loved and respected on both sides of the water....Froch doesn't do anything great....he's just an old fashioned tough guy with a underrated boxing IQ....honest when needed and very funny with the trash talk
Joe was this 100 punches per round slap machine with some slickness.....tough style to tame plus he had the ability to adjust when needed....tough match up for many imo.....especially slow hands and feet FrochComment

if they fought this christmas i
see joe getting Bute'd in 3 rds or less
but a fresh prime calzaghe might not get knocked out
untill rounds 5-12 vs todays frochComment

I watched Calzaghe thinking he couldnt hit right and many boxers said the same thing about his "slapping" style. I was always amazed how he could win doing it. He seemed to have his elite level opponents perplexed as well.
Make fun of him all you want to. NOBODY slapped as HARD and as OFTEN as Joe Calzaghe AND NO ONE knew how to deal with it. Froch gets overwhelmed by fast handed fighters who can go 12 rounds without slowing down. Calzaghe whips him easily 9 out of 10.Comment
