    Indeed. I believe it has the makings of a very good fight. GGG appears to have a significant edge in skill, but even in the vid Jrs size advantage was apparent, and when going at it full on it's hard to say how much that'd change things in his favour. Jrs a tough SOB whatever else I might think of him and is nobodys walkover - if he takes his training seriously it's a big fight.

    Ulimately, Golovkin is gonna have to make his mark at 168...he does haveta TCOB at 160 first, but I'll be disappointed if he hasn't landed a decent 168 fight by early 2015. Bika would be a good place to start, but according to Arum, Jr may be an option and Hearn says that before Groves II became mando , GGG was under discussion for Froch.

    "No power"? "Wouldn't be ****"? I think that's a little exaggerated considering Chavez seems to be a natural LHW/CW, and considering Golovkin walks around at 168 which is only a few pounds lighter than Froch's walk around weight.

    We'll see on Saturday night whether Junior decided to leave his bong home instead of bringing it to training camp. :rasta

    Hopefully we get to see OP's theory tested in June or July.

    Gennady would batter Jr. and make him "No Mas"

    Early to mid 2015 seems realistic if he can get Martinez in the fall/winter.

    I think Bika is somehow linked to GBP/SHO for now, and would be thrilled to see Froch-Golovkin get signed. Spidey sense tells me Froch could call it a day after he beats Groves in the rematch though, earning the biggest purse of his career - in turn making a Golovkin or Ward purse split seem like peanuts.

    Chavez Jr does not beat any one true consumate professional.

    The silverspoon twat would get his against any true top 168lbs'er, I can't wait for it personally.
