Ward vs. Calzaghe... who wins?

Froch would have a puncher's chance as Calzaghe could be hurt. He recovered well and had a good chin, but he wasn't Hagler. Calzaghe would definitely be the deserved favourite.

I've never seen Joe wobbly legged. He got put down a few times but I've never seen him really hurt.

Hopkins had him hurt two or three times and Hopkins was never a massive puncher at MW, let alone LHW. Jones Jr. had him genuinely hurt, as well. Again, I'm not saying that he doesn't have a very good chin, just that against a puncher like Froch he would be at some risk.

True but he's never got put out in a long career, good enough to say that he has a very tough chin. I don't think the risk with Froch would be that high. Certainly I'll admit I don't see Joe knocking out Froch though. He didn't throw with any authority in his later years due to his hands.
