    If you haven't worked out by now that Froch ducks or fears no man I don't even know where to begin. If GGGs team is serious and so sure then send an offer Froch can't refuse and he will happily kill the hype. In truth it is that simple with Froch and always has been.

    Remember GGG didn't shine too bright against Adama, you like his chances against Froch? I don't.
    Martinez, Cotto, Froch, were all fan favorites before Golovkin came into the picture. Fans seem to throw fighters under the bus for a new fighter every several months. The love isn't real, same thing will happen to Golovkin when he loses.

        Which is understandable, given Barker's opinion of GGG:

        http://******.craveonline.com/news/3...n-daniel-geale

        “I don’t think Geale can hurt Golovkin,” said Barker, with a sigh. “He’s not a massive puncher and although he put me down with a body shot that was the only time I was ever hurt. Daniel is going to have to work hard and put it on him, but his biggest problem is the power. If he can take it then he has a chance because he throws so many punches, but I don’t think anyone can beat Golovkin.

        “This guy is the total package and you have to be superman to take those shots.
        I hope Daniel doesn’t get stopped because I’ve spoken to him and he’s a really nice bloke, but I can’t see anything other than a late knockout.”

        When speaking with Barker one gets the feeling that, like most of us, he sees something incredibly special in Golovkin who is the No. 1-rated middleweight behind THE RING champion Miguel Cotto. It’s not so much that he was solely writing off Geale, in essence the former titleholder predicted doom for the entire division.

        Barker said, “There’s nobody going to bother Golovkin at middleweight. Gennady will have to move up because he’ll batter anyone at 160 pounds. Cotto would get annihilated and, in terms of British talent, Martin Murray doesn’t stand a chance. I’m not being disrespectful to Martin when I say that, it’s just if you’re a middleweight you’ve had it.

            GGG MW champ. Barker then MW contender.

            SOG SMW champ. GGG unranked at SMW.

            Surprised how poorly informed you are when the facts are inconvenient. That Hearn video's been posted many times, though it's only recently been clarified in that Barker interview.

              I'm confused, did they say they weren't making the Ward fight because GGG is unranked at Super Middleweight?

              No they said it doesn't make FINANCIAL SENSE.

              Enough with the damn spin.

                They said they are willing to step out of their division for a fight that makes financial sense, like a PPV. It's not complicated.

                So how did you miss that Hearn video?

                  Yeah and Hearn said they'd make the Golovkin fight if it made financial sense.

                  It's not complicated.

                    He said a lot more than that, as did Barker. I even bolded some juicy parts for you, reread it. And watch the video if you haven't yet!

                      You've posted an interview from a retired Barker who has the hips of an 80 year old man you absolute mong!

                      Typical propaganda/spin
