    So supposedly Froch has put on muscle and can no longer make 168. He says he's been doing a lot of deadlifts. Who the **** uses dead lifts to build muscle. It's more of a strength exercise.

    Anyway, I believe if you're not doing random drug testing during the first 2 years of your retirement , you're not allowed to make a comeback.

    I'm not buying this **** from Froch, Haye , Jon jones or any other of these ****s that go on long delays and comeback with more muscle mass.


    If you have the fire to comeback, you should have to put in for random drug testing 1 year before your return.

    Froch asked about 172 and Loefler came back with "no" and possible "no" even for 168.

    I have an impression that K2 is talking with GB about the Canelo fight, and there will be a catch-weight, even if it is not 155. So, gaining muscle is not in Golovkin's near plans.

    I'm surprised he didn't as for 190.
    In before 'GGG is ducking!'

    Didn't GGG and his team call out Froch @ 168?

    Yeah, but GGG has a very big chance to get all the belts within a year + canelo fight would be more important than froch right now

    I'd love to see that fight, but the problem is going from 170 back to the high 150's for a Canelo fight.

    If he needs to cut to 155 to make that fight happen, it's going to be tricky enough doing it from 160. Putting on 10 pounds of good weight for Froch and then needing to drop 15? Forget it.

    He's got to choose between chasing Froch or chasing Canelo, and going after Canelo now is the smarter move. Hopefully it works out better than that terrible movie Chasing Amy.

    This is stupid. He's asking a fighter to jump 2 division...which is ridiculous. GGG's fight night weight isn't even that high.

    He should get a fight with DeGale instead since they're much closer in weight and just as lucrative. GGG is a small middleweight and asking him to fight at 168 is already a stretch, let alone light heavyweight.

    GGG against either Canelo, Froch or even Andy Lee next would be good. Anything else at 160 and I won't watch.

    'Who uses deadlifts to build muscle?' LOL. Go away and do some research. One of the best muscle builders out there, if not the best.

    As for Froch, he's just craving the limelight. He could get down to 168 no problem. It's just so can say he offered GGG out and GG refused.

    Golovkin weighs about 170 for his fights, fyi. Not saying he should fight there, just saying.

    Froch is just talking sh*t. He doesn't want to fight Golovkin or anyone good. He wanted Chavez Jr, couldn't get him, so he retired.

    Froch is probably hitting the nose candy a little too hard.

    Can't disagree. Even at 168 Froch would weight about 10-15 lbs more, probably.
