    I've Matched Up GGG's 10 Best Opponents and Carl Froch's 10 Best Opponents, how do you guys see these matches playing out????? Inquiring Minds want to Know.

    Please be really really honest no playing any favorites here, and yes I know that GGG KO'd a scrawny beanpole who wasn't even remotely close to the Lucian Bute that fought Froch, and GGG dropped and stunned him, The Cobra almost killed him. So its a moot point.

    Okay Carl is old, he's a shell of his former self, who managed to beat one of the top 2 Young SMW's in England, who happened to be undefeated with a ton of KO's on his record, not once but twice, and he beat him savagely the second time, and cut the BS had the first one been allowed to continue Groves would have left the ring on a stretcher. But of course Carl is old and past it, just like when he ate Bute's heart and soul and ruined him.

    And of course everyone will say Triangle Theories don't work blah blah blah.
    Froch still loses, GGG is the GOAT, because of his skills and his power and his.......like Froch has never fought anyone with skill, other than everyone of these guys that he's fought.


    This is very pertinent to the case of Carl Froch Vs. Gennady Golovkin.

    Why because everyone of Froch's opponents brutally dispatches GGG's opponents in either a similar or maybe worse manner....so that means they may be on GGG's level if not higher.............and Carl Froch beat them all...except for Ward of course.

    Doesn't look good for Golovkin opponents. Doesn't change the fact that Golovkin will stop him late in war either.

    It is clear Froch's list of opponents >> Golovkin's at this point.

    That's why it's nice to add Froch to Golovkin's list. Don't forget most of them are native to the higher weightclass.

    Soon to be...

    Carl Forch, Willie Monroe Jr., Martin Murray, Daniel Geale
    Marco Antonio Rubio, Matthew Macklin, Curtis Stevens
    Osumanu Adama, Gabriel Rosado, Nobuhiro Ishida
    Grzegorz Proksa

    Golovkin has already beaten Bute and Dirrel as an amateur.

    of course froch has fought the better men , nobody will argue that , like many before him GGG has been brought along very gradually and hopefully we are now on the verge of his first true test , and make no mistake about it this really is an acid test , the fight will be a war !!!

    168 pound fighters vs. 160 pound fighters

    Obviously Froch has faced the better opposition, weight not counting.

    We're playing this game?

    Stick GGG vs those names you mentioned at 168lbs and ask yourself how many he would beat.
    He beats Kessler twice
    He beats Groves twice
    He knocks out Bute earlier that Froch did
    G Johnson - No problems there
    A Direll - I favour GGG
    A Ward - I slightly favour Ward(ATM)
    He beats Pascal no problem
    Abraham loses by UD
    Taylor gets put to sleep
    So does Magee

    :lol::lol::lol: Yes, beats prime Kessler not just once, but twice. Johnson, he wasn't very experienced, no problem.
    GGG has fought B and C level fighters. That's it. Martin Murray was the best he's faced. Seriously, get a grip on reality. At least you have the sense to grant that Ward would beat GGG. There's hope.

    Don't think anybody tries to claim GGG has fought better opposition.

    Better opposition have ducked GGG than The Cobra though. Only guy who really ducked Froch was Adonis Stevenson.

    You think the SMW version of pascal stands a chance in hell against GGG?? That prediction above surprises you? a guy who lost twice to 45yr old hopkins?? :roll:
