    I doubt a knock out, but I was thinking he'd win a UD. I think Ward will take a little bit of punishment from some hard shots, but Ward's defense is just too good. The only way Golovkin wins this fight is if he gets a KO. No way Golovkin wins a decision against Ward.

      Anyhow I favour Ward, but I think Golovkin stops Froch.
      He doesn't deserve to have people think he beats Froch, I'll never understand how people buy into hype, are you a Froch fan?

        Yeah, but I think he gets hit too much for someone with Golovkin's power.

        Bear in mind Sergey Kovalev, a high quality light-heavyweight, was backed up by Golovkin.

          Ward has the size and height, Golovkin has the strength and reach.

          Ward has the gold medal, Golovkin has the better amatuer record.

          Ward has better pro wins, and more rounds, Golovkin has more wins and more knockouts.

          Ward has great timing, anticipation and trickery, Golovkin has great pressure, composure and foot work.

          Ward can tie up, and be too close or too far to hit. Golovkin has great efficiency, and cuts off the ring.

          Ward can spoil a good offense, Golovkin is very accurate and throws everything with heat from all angles.

          Nobody could possibly know who would win, that is why this is the best fight possible to make.

            I like GGG but Ward is in another class.

              Ward is weigh 185 lbs in fight night, GGG only 170. That's huge weigh advantage on Ward's side.

                Don't put to much into sparring.

                I think of all the matches Froch might be the most intriguing, I don't think Golovkin can hurt him.

                  I don't know about that, Froch has been hurt before (Taylor, Kessler, Dirrell), it would certainly be an intriguing fight. I don't think GGG is another Bute, he's been looking the part so far.

                    As for the first fight at 168 it would be hard for GG. He needs some time at 168 before he takes on no 2 p2p.

                    As for Froch-GG that's the one I would like to see first. However say GG can't hurt Froch don't know what he's talking about.

                    In both fights GG would have a good chance of beating them.

                      GGG needs one fight at 168 1st, think Froch as others said would be a good match up but GGG would KO him for sure.
                      I think then he could take Ward by KO but only time can tell us this.
                      And to who ever said Ward comes in at 185 and GGG at 170, well let GGG weigh in 8lbs heavier and I bet he is 180LB plus as well.
