Yeah good call mugwump!
Made me proud to be British last night, a tremendous turnaround and superb win from Froch who has the lot IMO... power, a great chin, the heart of a lion, stamina. Maybe lacking a bit on the defensive side but a worthy World Champion in my eyes.
Think he would give Calzaghe all sorts of problems and I reckon Joe has known that for some time which is why it will never happen.
Bring on the Hitman now and his demolition of Manny..

manny ??? danny green knock out the german last night in round 2
winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

We're talking about proper boxing here pal, not a street brawl on Ramsey Street.
I'm getting more confident the more I see of Hatton but I felt like this against Mayweather so I'm trying not to get my hopes up too much. I keep reverting back in mind to the fact that Hatton has been unstoppable at 140 and if he goes in at his usual 148/149 I can see him being too strong for Pacman as long as he can deal with his speed.

The early rounds are the danger for Hatton, I think. If he can get to grips with Manny's speed early doors, I fancy him in the later rounds. Manny won't have faced anyone as relentless as Hatton.

2 ways this fight could go:-
1) Calzaghe tip-taps his way to yet another points victory and Froch suffers no worse effects than being in a pillow fight.
2) Froch connects at some point with a decent punch and then Calzaghe is legacy is ruined - permanently...
Personally, I don't think Calzaghe has the balls...

Exactly, Froch would have more than a punchers chance in this fight IMO, and if he connects with one of those loaded right hands it could be lights out. Far too much for Calzaghe to risk, and he's known it ever since Froch started calling him out.
By the way, I think it's criminal how little press coverage the Froch fight has got over here, it's only boxing fans that even know the fight was happening. I think he's up there with Hatton and Haye for excitement value, and is our only current world champion.
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.
A Froch - Calzaghe fight would be exciting, but in the end Froch wouldn't be able to cope with Calzaghe's hand speed, and supirior work-rate for 12 rounds, Calzaghe would win a wide UD IMO.
