Comments Thread For: Hearn: I Spoke To Froch, He's Interested in Golovkin

[SugarRaRobinson]

I'd like some of what you're smoking SugarRa.

This is a consensus 50-50 fight, or at most a 60-40 either way if you have a preference for one boxer.

It's never an 85-15, and venue/judges won't matter in this one.

Since you've stated that the judges won't matter in this one, then your professing with your own lips that Froch is getting KO'd . Because I know u can't believe that there's a viable chance Froch KO's GGG ?

[MrTambourineMan]

Ok, How is everyone doing! I do not post too often but I honestly cannot believe why Froch gets so much hype. The guy is so average and besides that is an arrogant fellow. First, he doesn't have much of an amateur career (did he make the Olympics), his claim to fame is ko'ing a scrub Groves who ironically was beating him pretty bad before that awful stoppage, he beat a total pssy in Bute, and an over the hill Kessler (in a tough toss up fight). Now in all the fights I saw I have never seen quite a robbery that Dirrell got when he went to Nottingham and absolutely schooled Froch. I watched that fight 3 times and the best I could give Froch was two rounds. The man is so damn slow, heavy feet and absolutely zero zero technical ability. Really the man has no skill. Ok maybe I am a little harsh he is ok because he has won a title. I give him credit for his conditioning and will to win. But really the man needs to be humbled again like he was against Ward. I didn't like what I saw with Golovkin in his last fight but styles make fights and Froch is a slow plodding white boy who is going to get punched with fierce punches from a ****er. It will be fun watching Froch's arrogant ugly head getting punched in. Lord have mercy my wish will come true if Golovkin gets to punch this overated scrubs face in!

You love the cock.

Jumping from 160 to 168 is a huge deal, and very very very rarely has a fighter been able to jump there and find the same success.

GGG is a natural 160 and Froch a natural 168. That is a big equalizer. Sure if they were the same size, Froch wouldn't stand a chance.

Because of that, it's a good fight.

I don't think this fight happens in vegas. They would probably put this on Sky PPV, and make a lot of money. And add 80,000 people in wembley to the mix, and you are good to go.

It's actually super nice when one of these big fights happens in Britain as we can watch the fight nice and early.

Still, don't understand the logic in having fights so late.

PBC might not be doing well, but at least Haymon is making small changes to protocol that vastly improves the watching experience and convenience, especially for a layman.

I am in agreement with ur post wholeheartedly . Froch is always tough to say the least ! If it happens , MUCH PROPS to GGG for taking his first fight @168 against one of 168 best fighters ! If this fight does happen hopefully people will stop marginalizing everything he's done and does .

Tomorrow's headline:

Golovkin: Mayweather's ducking me!

[HeroBando]

That HeroBando guy would have made a great propagandist.

Froch has always been interested in Golovkin but he's not gonna waste his time for peanuts. If HBO can put up the money, then lets do it.

"It was tongue in cheek back then. I was being a bit cheeky and you can take those comments with a pinch of salt. What I will say though is this guy can ****ing punch: he's dangerous and if he can be avoided we'll avoid him"

This fight only makes sense in the UK. The money is there, it would not be peanuts. HBO will pitch in, but that's not where the bulk of the revenues would come from.

There is a chance Froch KOs Golovkin. I think that either could win via stoppage and I very much doubt it goes the distance.

Golovkin hits hard, I'm picking him to win, but he's not the terminator. He gets hit and he's stepping up a weight class and in class of opponent, there's every chance it could prove a bridge too far for him.

U guys probably thought Canelo/Kirkland was a consensus 50/50 fight

Alvarez was always favored in that bout.

I live in the south of England and I work all over London and trust me this fight sells BIG in the UK, every black cab man knows Golovkin, a tonne of casuals and all the pub talk is of Golovkin. Froch Vs Golovkin sells ****ing tickets and could do 60k at Wembley maybe the full 80. Only thing is the casuals over here want Mayweather to fight Golovkin and i waste no time in telling them it's not going to happen and Froch is them thrust into the equation.

[matt22]

You are claiming that someone likes the c when you have the gayest sounding nickname Mr. Tambourine Man. Listen no need to get so aggressive now continue on in your mom's basement before she calls you up for dinner.

No one even knows who GGG is in America, casuals wouldn't buy it. It'd do worse than Floyd/Maidana numbers.

Ok , I see ; If I had to give it a guess I'd say its HIGHLY probable that it will go the distance as u never know how well a guy will carry his distinction in power while moving up weight . I got GGG winning a decision , and I like the odds that it goes 12
