Carl Froch Disses Joe Calzaghe

Carl Froch isn't the least bit happy or impressed with Joe Calzaghe's prediction that Jermain Taylor has too much skills for Froch. Froch who takes on Taylor this coming Saturday at the MGM Grand in Foxwoods, was quoted by the Daily Star giving his feelings on Calzaghe's prediction.

Froch isn't surprised that Calzaghe has gone on record with his prediction, stating: "After all, he ducked fighting me for years so it won’t come as any surprise to hear him say something like that."

Froch also isn't too worried over what Calzaghe thinks, stating he is entitled to his own opinion. Froch gave his own opinions on Calzaghe, dissing Calzaghe for fighting bums and vacating a title rather than facing him.

In regards to Calzaghe ducking him, Froch stated to the publication: "The fact is that he vacated his world title rather than fight me and everyone knows that."

Froch went on to diss Calzaghe, stating he's been fighting bums: “It would have been the fight the British public wanted but, after years of fighting bums of the month in his very own comfort zone of Cardiff, the fact that he decided to call it quits tells its own story. Unlike him, I’m not interested in defending my title for the next five years against nobody fighters."
