    GGG has the beating of him according to everyone anyway. There's more available money opponents for GGG at super-middle. If he stays at middle, without Cotto, he'll be up against the likes of Geale and Soliman.

    Had ggg actually said anything about wanting to step up and fight froch or any other supermiddle weight for that matter? In the ring after his last fight he says he just wants to unify belts as a middleweight first.

    Because the fights not happening people are automatically saying froch is ducking him but BOTH sides don't want this fight by the looks of it, not right now in any case.

    If froch can make more money fighting an easier fight in Chavez then why wouldn't he want that one? To be honest he would probley make more money with the degale fight as at least that would be big fight on these shores whereas if be fought ggg now on the American side of it would be on normal hbo Saturday night with no major build up and over here how many people on the street would give a **** that froch is fighting him? We would all be going crazy for it but it wouldn't grab the general publics attention.
    The Chavez fight probley wouldn't grab the publics attention either I might add but at least it would be given the full ppv 24/7 treatment stateside.

    If Froch has doubts about whether he has one big fight left in him then he should retire IMO.

    What I don't understand is why do Sky show GGG's fights if there isn't anything in the pipeline with Froch.

    fighters should NOT be allowed to pick or choose opponents, in fact NOBODY should.

    there should be Board made, and FORCED fights if need be. Champion vs No.1 Contender and so on...

    I think if Froch can't get Chavez for January he'll fight Degale, i know this is hardly breaking news lol but if he DOES fight in January ( Idon't think it'll be in US),then he'll probably have 1 more fight probably Oct/Nov 2015 & that's enough time for GGG to have unified (if he can) & possibly be looking for titles at SM. Good chance thiis fight happens but not imminently as it benefits neither at the minute but if GGG unifies it'll likely be through Cotto by which time he'll be mainstream & much bigger ppv draw

    Even Carl knows there's a good chance Golovkin would give him a beating.
