    In fact Froch has always been one of the more outspoken boxers regarding mandatory PED tests.

    I read about Froch's Missus screaming and swearing at the testers for waking the kids up when they rang Froch's door bell at 6am for one test.

    I can well believe it. Rachel is a lovely girl, but she has a real mouth on her.

    Going by what Froch has had to say about GGG - "He hits like a mule ... I wouldn't want to fight him, I'd only do it if I had to ..." I don't think Carl fancies it at this point in his career.

    In fact, I suspect his career may already be over.

      I know I would pay to see that fight, but are there enough hardcore/mexican/brit fans willing to shell out for it to make it a success?
      What's funny about this whole thing is that more people would probably buy GGG vs Froch in contrast to GGG vs Ward but I really don't see y considering GGG vs Froch is very predictable (GGG wins by KO or decision) whereas GGG vs Ward does not have a highly predictable outcome (although I believe Ward wins) .

        For instance , I didnt even watch Canelo\Kirkland because that outcome was 100% predictable with 0% margin of error

          not sure about that. froch will be bigger, stronger and tougher than anyone golovkin has faced to date. he has long arms and a hard jab and may well be able to take control of the centre of the ring. to beat froch, golovkin would have to show sides to his game that he hasn't had to show yet. i believe he has that in his locker, but it's possible that he doesn't.

            Get a grip on reality moron. Something is clouding your thought patterns. It's called hate. Froch is way, way, way, way, way more of a draw and offers way, way, way, way more money in a risky fight. If GGG is going to move up prematurely it needs to be a blockbuster fight. Ward simply doesn't provide that. End of the f$cking story. Now Go back to sucking d%ck

              Froch after a tune up beats GGG-FACT

              Froch will beat GGG in the Uk after a tuneup fight. GGG is a natural 154lber. Froch will be too big but the fight has to be in Nottingham or London. GGG is vastly overrated.

                Further reports says Hearns confirms that there are talks going on for this fight. It would be too good to be true if done deal.

                  I disagree that GGG is 154lber. He is a natural and decent sized middleweight. However I believe GGG-Froch is looking 50-50 right now as this is step up a from anyone GGG has faced before.
