If calzaghe v froch was announced for September who wins ?

[twenty six]

Just as I thought.
Deluded.
Hearn work with Bunny ?
Why would Hearn give Bunny the chance to showcase his fighter on Sky ?
Also if Hearn would work with Bunny why is Bellew going to the lengths he is to get in bed with Hearn ?
Dream on.
Asde from Promotional issues Froch would have a problem putting enough weight ON.
This rumour mill crap is all emanating from the Cleverly camp.
Froch can make serious money by staying at Super Middle starting with avenging the Kessler defeat.

the thing is calzaghe on ringside wouldnt give froch any credit for his last 6 fights,he said he just about got the victory against dirrell just about put away taylor beat a slow arthur abraham and got beat by kessler,imo didnt calzaghe do the same with jones and hopkins both old and way past their prime,even tho hopkins could of beat him that night. froch is a warrior better warrior than calzaqghe imo but skill wise calzaghe would of had more than froch could of handled,a southpaw with speed like lightning is enough for any boxer prime or no prime :)

I was at ringside when Robin Reid beat Joe fair and square.

Yes Reid did beat Calzaghe.
Reid though was his own worst enemy.
Why say matter of factedly in the ring post fight that u think calzaghe won, and than complain for years u won and cant get a rematch.

Sure the Calzaghe who struggled with reid and eubanks bears no resemblance to the matador who destroyed lacey and beat kessler handily. But ive always said a calzaghe-froch fight is a lot closer than people think in terms of who wins.

Calzaghe won the first 7 rounds easily, Reid had a good few rounds and Calzaghe finished well.
Even in post fight interview, Reid didn't claim he won.

"Fair and square"! Your memory is playing tricks with you.

in their primes calzaghe was too good - calzaghe wins close point decision

if it happened back when froch was calling calzaghe out before he retired, calzaghe was at his his best at the end of his career and froch hadn't reached his best - calzaghe wins slightly wider points decision

if it happened now, froch would score a quick knockout, regardless of which weight division they met - froch wins KO

[The_Don1]

Reid did not beat Calzaghe fair and square, I watched the fight years later and score it to Reid by one round, but it could have gone either way...as it did.

Calzaghe would have toyed with Froch in his prime, you can't blame Joe for his comments on Ringside, Froch was hardly complimentary towards him during his Hennessey days.

It'll never happen now though.

The noise coming from Matchroom is that Froch will have an easier fight next (he deserves one!) get the IBF mandatory out of the way and then look to Kessler, as for Cleverley, don't make me laugh!

I disagree.

[squared circle]

Calzaghe still trains and spars a lot.

Jeez, judging by his size on that Soccer Aid match last night I would hate to see what shape he was in if he wasn't still training/sparring

Joe wasn't completely ruling out a return on Ringside as far as I saw, he did hesitate slightly when asked by Smith

(speaking of which, anyone else cringe when Hearn said to Smith "thre-times world champ, BABY" and Smith just did his chuckle, his puppy dog eyes he normally reserves for Nelson stumbling over the autocue, and repeated breathlessly "...BABY...")
