    Damn right JT had Froch hurt. And hurt big time as well as being up on the cards. He just ran out of juice and froch did come back strong, being a tough sob.

    Being up on the cards I agree with, but 'hurt big time' I tend to disagree. :conf

    You mention Froch being a tough SOB but you think Golovkin's power is above that? He's taken some flush shots from bigger men than Golovkin... GGG hurting Froch would make him a real monster.

    Froch contrary to popular belief has good defence, because he rides the shots. He gets hit but most of the time he sees them coming.
    With someone quicker he won't see it coming like JT or ward. Speed not power is the key for beating froch.

    Why is it ok for him to go down but not up? I think that he should also clean out 160 because that's his natural weight class. I am not in favor of any fighter that doesn't outgrow a weight class to move up or down until he has cleaned it out.

    Ward takes GGG to school and back. Toys with him and gives him that "L"

    Trip G is bigger than Arthur A. Taller by two inches and bigger frame.

    GGG earned me as a new fan last night. He comes to fight and he is ****y about it. He has heavy hands for sure and he proved to me last night he has a chin. He still is to easy to hit but at least he is not like Wlad who is scared to get hit. I want to see him fight the big names. I would like to see him fight Ward. I feel Ward would win but GGG has a punchers chance. GGG has a fighters heart and I think he will do well in this sport. I don't see Mayweather fighting him but I would like to see it. GGG may just be to big. He made Stevens look small

    Yeah, I'd like to see Ward-Golovkin at 168. I think Ward beats him but its an interesting fight.

    I'd prefer to see Golovkin stay at middleweight for a bit longer and get Martinez and even one of the other top guys like Murray, Barker, and Geale.

    I'd also prefer to see Ward move to 175 and face guys like Kovalev and Stevenson but if Ward-Golovkin happens at 168 I wouldn't complain.

    I'd like to see Golovkin clean out 160 first. Fights with Martinez, Quillin, the Barker/ Sturm winner should all be on his radar

    GGG has a terrible resume and fights at 160.

    GGG would be the best that Ward has fought, with equally good skills , just not a quick , but I think his timing is better.

    A close fight as long as its not in CaliWardia
