    GGG either flattens Froch or beats him via wide UD. Also, Froch power is overrated IMO. His perks are his chin, stamina and grinding power.
    froch might not have the fastest jab or be the most technical boxer,
    but his jab can be effective and his style is awkward,
    he proved it in his last fight fight with a fast powerful puncher in groves

    im not sure that fight will get made,
    but if it does it would be huge

        GGG said he would drain himself down to 154 to fight Floyd (news flash: Floyd has a 154 Super title)

        Ward wants GGG to move UP to face him. The real comparison is if Ward was calling GGG out for a fight at 160. Not ****ing 168
        but ggg can fight chavez at 168

          Will Ward come down to 160 for GGG?

              Nothing against GGG but that ref needs to lose his job.

              Golovkin was going to put him away anyway, no need to create pointless controversy by "taking things into your own hands" and speeding up the count. Nobody there paid to watch daring aggressive refereeing.

                  That's the coolest delivered punch of the year. Rubio got nuked from orbit. You just can't defend those space bombs, even if you're 181 pounds of cheat.

                    1-0 GGG but I think Rubio could potentially drop GGG....GGG looks off or maybe it's their styles but Rubio is a live dawg tonight.
                    I thought Golovkin got caught at the end of the first too, didn't review it. Was he hurt? doubt it.

                    Yeah, I was like wtf is he telling him.

                    Top 5/10 and former world champion opponents are cans?

                    Watching Golovkin fighting these days can be frustrating. So much inherent talent that only goes to use for two or three rounds before ending in a messy knockout. He's wasting his world-class skills on too many fighters that are below elite level.
                    Yet people want him to fight Cotto, Canelo and Mayweather pretending they're elite MWs - they're not.

                    Murray still has to beat Spada. He needs to do better too, hasn't looked good in recent fights.

                    Nor am I.

                    Ward said he's of the belief that power has to be met head on, so he'll force Golovkin back. It's a great fight though, I'd still pick Ward by decision.
                    He might change his mind if he meets the hammers head on.

                    Froch is a SMW with pretty legendary punch resistance, I'd pick Golovkin but I wouldn't be so confident.
