    As the title says, GGG vs. Froch, prime for prime, who takes it?
    I'm talking GGG (Proksa-Geale) against Froch (Pascal-Abraham).

    I'd say it would have been a slugfest like Froch-Abraham was expected but never happened.
    GGG would score a nasty KO, after a hard fought battle, both being a bloody mess.
    If they'd do a chess match, GGG by wide UD.

    I gotta go Froch UD.

    Froch being slightly bigger naturally and was a bit more "slick" with a granite chin. Speed wise about similar. I think Froch squeezes it.

    I think Frochy decision. Probably a very close one though.

    GGG body shot stoppage, similar fate that befell Macklin when he tried to "tough it out" with GGG, noticeable that another fighter reknown as a "toughie" decided not to be so tough when in with GGG, I am ofcourse referring to Murray. . GGG also has a Granite chin, has better skills ,balance & ring IQ than Froch ever had. His amateur pedigree is impeccable & imo, Froch held himself back by staying with McCracken , as AJ has. No Froch's ego never recovered after Ward brutality handed him his ass... also couldn't shake off his bitterness towards Calzaghe, sad person all round ...Viva George Groves ha ha

    Granite meets diamond . Granite would crack , froch would get badly chinned.

    I have nothing to back this up... nothing..but I've always felt like ggg would ko him ..prime for prime...I have never been a massive froch lover and I know he could box to a game plan..but he did love to show his macho side...and I feel like it'd be his undoing ....Id go golovkin stoppage...

    I have to change my stance LOL. Have a few drinks in me right now.

    I think GGG wins. He was more technical and more skilled. Both having granite chins just means skills edges it.

    Froch had a tendency to fight with his hands down despite not being fast and had some success. But yeah, GGG was much more technical for sure.

    GGG by decision. no ko's but i wolndnt be suprise if one of them hit the canvas. i think froch is too strong and too proud to be slaughtered by a smaller man. Otherwise Golovkin skill wise is a better boxer. so i'm going for ggg. by decision
