    Rhis division is getting exciting again.

    Froch GGG is probably more likely than the rematch.

    GGG stops Froch, then we get GGG-Groves.

    The sample size of GGG@168 is too low to conclude anything. You guys dishing out hyperboles left and right are a cancer to boxing forums.

    I would favour GGG but I would be surprised and impressed if he did better than Groves did in the first half of the fight against Froch. Would like to see it though.

    I'm not usually one to defend the UK but didn't Pac-Bradley happen in the US ?

    And Lewis-Holyfield 1 ?
    And Oscar-Tito ?
    and Chavez jnr-Vera ?

    All of these are much worse than the Froch/Groves bull**** yesterday.

    To be fair Stevens was at 168 for a long time. I would need to rewatch Froch-Dirrell to remember if Froch got buzzed by Dirrell's combos at some point, but I'm pretty sure Dirrell was so wary of Stevens in their fight he didn't engage as much as he did Carl. Golovkin busted Stevens up and would potentially be able to bust Froch up since Froch's defense is even worse than Golovkin's. So far Golovkin's chin looks more than decent.
