    Froch would take this. I think he'd take Golovkin to war and stop him late.

    Fools trying to underestimate Froch? He would out jab him and GGG would struggle to get through, even if he did, Froch would take the punch and dish out a whole load. Froch all the way.

    LOL!
    GGG is hiding out with Lucien Bute and has not called out a fight with Froch or Ward or any other live opponent.

    Even this old Froch discombobulates the media hyped and resume-less, 3G man.

    One of the very best fights that could be made IMO. Let it happen.

    I see Golovkin picking Froch apart here Koba. Froch caveman combinations wont trouble Gennady too much.

    Why is it guys always want GGG to move up to a higher weight class? You see it all the time. Ward, Froch, etc.

    He has plenty of comp at 160. Let Froch fight him at 160 or a 164 catch weight.

    Froch is 6'2 and 172-173 on a fight night
    GGG is 5'9 and 170 on a fight night
    The fight will be competitive. UK fans are getting too defensive with Froch and try to compare GGG to Abraham lol. Golovkin will be a favorite in this fight no matter how much you hate this.

    I'm not sure how accurate they are but...
    Froch is listed as 6'1"
    GGG is listed as 5'11" (I think he's more like 5'10"/5'10.5")

    There is probably about 2-3 inches between them in height. Froch has a big reach advantage of 5 inches.

    Arm length or wingspan?

    Lots of Tales of the Tape list wingspan as reach which isnt really very telling. You can have a wide torso and tyrannosaurs arms. Not that Froch does by any stretch, his arms are obviously quite long but I would be interested to know the actual comparative arm length.

    Wingspan. I'm pretty sure he has longer arms as well though.

    Me too. It's not easy to find arm length measurements online.

    My bad, it was a typo - GGG is 5'11 not 5'9.
    And both Froch and GGG have a 24" reach from armpit to the end of the fist. I just don't know where 5' advatnage you've taken from, man.
