    you appear to be mistaking ggg for wilder, although he couldn't get the ko.

    I wont mind the haters hating if GGG KO Froch , because for every hater there will be 10k new fans due to the MEGA exposure this fight will get all over the world.
    GGG is a nice guy with fan friendly style , is biggest haters only talk resume , after Froch they wont be able to say it anymore , 2nd best SMW , a weight class above , they will still bring up ward , but so what , let them hate.

    A few months ago, I would have picked GGG by TKO, but the last few fights I have seen him in has now presented a few doubts. I think the size, power, and chin of Froch is going to give GGG a lot of problems. I'm not sure Golovkin can actually knock Froch out, so he would need to focus more on boxing and setting up his power as opposed to head hunting and being in love with his power, like he was against Monroe. As a huge GGG fan, I have genuine uncertainty in regards to GGG being able to come away from this clash with his 0 in tact, especially if they fight across the pond.

    awesome, would have even more respect for Froch if he decided to take this fight. he's really not obligated to fight GGG at this stage of his career.

    I favor GGG by late TKO in an action fight, really good fight.

    Would be a big step up for Carl Froch if it happens.

    froch has fought much better opposition, to the contrary it would be a huge step up for ggg if he fights froch.

    Froch has never fought a top MW. Much less the best MW. On top of that GGG is allowed to gain 8 pounds. 8 freakin pounds! That's like a middleweight on steroids or something, when has Froch ever faced someone like that?

    That's right, never. GGG on the other hand has faced plenty of fighters who are bigger than him and block punches with their chin.

    People are falling into a real trap here, using size as their default setting. GGG managed well with fighters Froch's size in the amateurs and if you actually look at them GGG has wider shoulders and just as sturdy a fame if not moreso.

    The resume thing is entirely played out. It has far more to do with when fighters met and the individual circumstances at play. In short; Froch's resume will not mean much when his career path intersects with Golovkin's.

    I don't think this fight will happen. Even if Froch agrees I am sure K2 will pull out.If I was K2 manager I would find some excuse. GGG will get murdered, hes too small.

    Exactly.... Started this shizz jus before DeGale got his gift, but now DeGale holds "his" title for him it will suddenly be a big enough fight.

    GGG defo better have Lemieux/NDam winner with a contract just in case Carl is bluffing
