Arum: Froch, Ward or Golovkin next for Chavez in July

[FrankieBruno]

Hopefully it's Froch or Golovkin, there's nothing worse than watching Ward suck the fun out of boxing

ur mate froch is running scared of groves, so he's going to drop his title and walk away from 5 million pounds to fight some unmotivated fat bum called chavez for lesser money

chavez vs ggg ! chavez stops him.

HBO knows Chavez v Ward probably makes more money, that's a preference and I'm just not convinced that GGG will move up to 168 just yet.

Ofc I'd rather GGG V Jr but I think the Ward fight is more likely.

Ward drew 8500 fans in his hometown against the reigning LHW Champion in a superfight, had 5000 against Bika, Golovkin can draw around 5000 (the capacity) in NY at the MSG ballroom against largely unknown contenders. Golovkin gets higher ratings, costs less and is a much more fan friendly matchup against Chavez for getting casual fans interested. All things considered seems reasonable to believe Golovkin would be the more attractive option for HBO.

Why would it make more? Gggs recent numbers are better as is viewer satisfaction. Plus he's much cheaper. Not much of a clue on ya eh?

It's Groves who's doing all the walking away so far...

Chavez Jr fighting Ward, Froch or GGG next whilst the p4p #1 in the sport is cherrypicking between A mere con & Maidana. Laughable.

chavez vs ggg ! chavez stops him.

...and asks him the date?

Chavez Jr would be a major step up for GGG

I guarantee you, Ward is Chavez's first option, if that fight gets turned down and Froch doesn't happen, then and only THEN will GGG be considered. Boxing isn't always as logical as you guys seem to think it is.

Out of all those fights I would like to see Chavez Jr vs Froch the most. The arena in Vegas would be crazy.
