    Andre Ward has no chance. He has no power and his style is perfect for Golovkin. He would get hurt and stopped earlier than Murray did imo. I think when Andre Ward comes in quickly with a jab he leaves himself open and then immediately likes to clinch. I think in that period he gets caught and hits the canvas.


    Carl Froch is known for his iron chin but Groves nearly stopped him early in their first fight. Froch was getting outboxed comfortably in that fight before the controversial stoppage. Golovkin is too relentless and would eventually wear Froch down to a stoppage or a UD points decision.


    The guys at middleweight have no chance unless Andy Lee can pull off a miracle punch being down on the scorecards and stop him. But Andy Lee's more likely to be stopped himself before he gets the chance to in the early rounds if they will ever fight.



    Kovalev would give him loads of trouble and would hurt him a few times if not stopping him. Although, I think even Kovalev could get stopped if he's not strategic enough in the fight. I'm not 100 percent sure his chin is that good.

    I think Golovkin would beat Froch is what would be a great action fight. LOVE to see it.

    I think Ward's speed and mobility would give him a decision over Golovkin, but it's a 51/49 fight.

    The first fighter to pushes GGG back and makes him fight going backwards defeats him.

    Plus, it wouldn't also help in negotiations to get a bigger ring than the small ring they had in there tonight for GGG vs. Murray.

    GGG didn't even have to cut off the ring.

    I just don't think Ward can handle the way Golovkin loads his punches up to set up shots. He just keeps coming at you and Ward would need to run and clinch consistently or he's getting knocked out.


    I think he stops Ward and might stop Froch or UD him comfortably to a points decision.


    I think Golovkin's power would put off Andre Ward to the point his speed is ineffective and eventually he's going to come in and get caught.


    Ward schooled Froch because Froch isn't stereotypically a ''good'' boxer. I think very mobile guys would always give Froch trouble.He can also be clumsy with his stance at times and eats needless shots. I don't think he can afford to do that against a power puncher.


    I think both fights will be one way traffic with Ward getting more success landing shots but eventually he crumbles.

    If Golovkin was to fight Ward and Froch next i'd favour him to stop both within the distance.

    He's been more active and always looks in top shape.


    Andre Ward isn't stopping GGG. He has no power only against glass jawed drained light heavyweights like Glass Jawson.


    Golovkin has a good chin be it he hasn't been completely tested yet. I doubt Ward would stop him. Ward doesn't stop many guys it's not really in his ****nal.

    Until he beats a solid super middleweight he isn't beating either Froch or Ward

    Do you want to bet on it?


    If these two ever fight him lets do a ban bet.


    I guarantee he beats both.

    Froch would be an entertaining fight but froch is way to easy to hitso I'd favour Golovkin . Ward on the other hand would have a decent chance but then ward isn't active and would only take the fight if Golovkin agreed to the fight being wards backyard with wards family as the ref and judges

    Froch might get outboxed but Ward takes GGG to school. Here's the kicker. GGG knows it and that's why Wards name does not come out of his mouth. He is being a good boy when it comes to Ward.
