Could GGG have knocked out Froch at super middle in a fantasy fight?

    hes proven taken elite scalps time and again. Ward outclassed everyone, so null argie.

    GGG tried once, failed.
    Until he succeeds, his potatoes are smaller.

    I'm not sure why u are even contemplating trying here.

    Triple Hype couldn't make a dent in Canelo and Jacobs, I find the notion that he'd KO an elite, iron chinned SMW slightly ridiculous. The GGG myth was based off of him destroying C+ level fighters like Macklin, Stevens, Ouma, Murray etc. etc. As soon as he faced elite level fighters (and it's debatable if Jacobs is elite) the myth ended.

    Froch demolishes Triple Hype

    Froch had bigger flaws than most guys he fought, but he still managed to beat nearly all of them. At 36-37 he beat the guy that could be crowned SMW king this weekend. His one-sided loss to Ward says a lot more about Ward than about Froch.

    At SMW, I think he would be a more difficult opponent than either Jacobs or Canelo were at 160.
