    GGG definitely for me, I have no and have never had any interest in the Degale fight, stylistically bad match up for Froch so he will look s****py but I don't think Degale has enough to beat him either. I don't think Degale can trouble Froch with anything he has, Froch when he is cagey will be too good for Degale, winning the battle of the jabs most of the time plus the more effective punching and being the busier fighter I cant see Degale having enough in the fight.

    GGG definitely. I can see Froch-DeGale panning out much the same way as the Froch-Groves fights. DeGale out boxing him then Froch inevitably stopping him in the mid to late rounds.

    He isn't going to fight either of them though as I think he will retire. He already is effectively

    Golovkin. The Degale fight appeals to me as well but seeing Golovkin against the best chin at 168 would tell us about Golovkin's power moreso than any other realistic opponent in boxing. I also think Froch would have a decent chance of an upset because of Golovkin's head-on, easy-to-hit style.

    A tough choice! I'd go for Degale as it would be a potential Wembley stadium fight & the pre-fight build up would be great.

    I'd also back Degale to stop Froch which is an added bonus.

    GGG most likely KO's Froch within 6 rounds hence the fight will never happen...

    GGG will be a good fight and hard to predict, will GGG's power carry to 168, will his chin? genuine 50/50 for me and should be a great fight to watch.

    degale seems to get lazy and backs on to the ropes and throws away rounds. Can see froch beating him on points and it don't think it'll be a good fight to watch.

    Interesting, some guy said that the domestic match up would definitely be a bigger hit in the UK (sell more tickets that is) but I'm not sure that's the case.

    Neither of these really interests me. I have serious doubts whether McCracken would train Froch again, especially for these proposed match-ups. Too long out the ring I believe.

    For what it's worth, a prime Froch beats the current GGG, wears him down.

    The current Degale wins over a prime Froch no probs, makes it look easy. DeGale has way too much natural ability and, when 100% focused, is simply the superior boxer.

    No form of Degale beats a prime Froch. Not a chance.
