      Granted Froch is a very good fighter but some of the obvious gets lost here, he also likes to leave his jab dangling.

          Been saying for the lasr 18 months or so that Froch vs GGG is one of the very best fights it's possible to make. I've a suspiscion GGGs superior technique wins him the UD - doubt he stops Carl - but he'd be in the fight of his life.

          Froch would have the height and reach advantage, but the guys come to the ring at about the same weight these days.

            Granted he's a mouthpiece but Froch's brother has been touting this fight recently on Twitter. He then had 'second thoughts' and suggested that Kessler III at the City Ground would be a better fight. Wonder if Eddie had a word in his ear!?!

            After watching the Murray bout I wouldn't be suprised if Froch fancied his chances. Froch's tendency to plant his feet, drop his hands, and throw predictable left right left right punches in close may actually bode well if he shortened his hooks. Golovkin throws his wide and is there to be countered inside as we all saw.

            If Froch pressured him straight down the middle, there's a possibility that Golovkin wouldn't have an answer.

              Some of the punches Kessler landed on Froch in their second fight were ridiculous, and Froch didn't blink. I'm confident that he would be able to handle Golovkin's power.
              Agree.

              Froch schools a vastly overrated GGG.

                I love that GGG only gets matched in fantasy fights against ATGs or prime top 3 fighters above his division, its really more of a compliment than anything else.

                  Or that his current division is rubbish

                    A PRIME Carl Froch gives GGG all he wants & then some...

                    Skill 4 skill I favor Froch...Carl has one of most underrated jabs in the game...very unorthodox , he can throw it at different angles & levels efficiently with power...He's taller & longer than Golovkin & I think he's as fast if not faster....Can't see a stoppage either way....

                    Froch boxes well enough, is durable enough, & fights well enough to get a decision over Golovkin IMO....

                      If Martin Murray (All due respect and I am a fan) with pillow fists and a "decent chin" can stay in there for 11 rounds then a power puncher with an ATG chin will defiantly go the whole 12.

                      Froch too old now so yeah prime Froch only in this discussion. I'll even add a poll so we can see who are the smart fans and who are being fanboys.

                      GGG beats Froch on points..
