    Carl Froch vs Gennady Golovkin, HBO has given Froch's promoter 4 possible names that they would want Froch to fight, if he wants to be on HBO TV. The names are Ward, Kessler, Chavez Jr & Golovkin. The fight would take place in the UK.

    If Froch chooses GGG who wins?

    I think GGG is seemingly a real possibility given Hearn's last interview. Said Froch would possibly fight at a catchweight of 11st 11 which I found interesting.

    Would think Chavez Jr is the bigger sell in this country as you can piggy back him on his old man's achievements.

    GGG or Chavez would be brilliant fights whereas Ward wouldn't be. Like Mike Hunt said it would be good to see a fresh challenge for Carl.

    Depends what happens with GGG and Macklin this weekend. Dont want to see him vs Chavez, total mismatch. Carl would kill him. The Kessler chapter is done and dusted now.

    Froch to fight Chavez for me is the most appealing. While Froch would hit hard, were talking about a guy who has walked down most of his opponenets and took Martinez best shots all day long. I think GGG is too small to be honest.

    Let Kessler heal up, take on Chavez Jr and then do Kessler 3 after a tune-up for Kessler.

    I know what the result for Kessler 3 would be but for the entertainment value alone I would watch it again.

    I think he is probably only going to fight 3 times more before he hangs his gloves up, I'd go with Chavez Jr, Ward and then finish up with a fight against groves/degale

    Lol Carl would murder Chavez, Chavez hasn't done anything to earn a fight with Carl Froch

    Its funny someone gets humiliated for 11 and a half rounds, does nothing previously other than beating a heartless and weak Andy Lee, gets a potential opportunity fighting Carl Froch. Things like make boxing look bad

    Chavez brings massive money to a fight. Why you think andre ward wants to fight him.

    Chavez is the obvious choice for me. Their styles would make for a great fight. The fight would sell in the US and make Carl an even bigger star over there. Froch would also start as favourite and should pick up another win and another big payday.
