Froch: ‘If I fight Golovkin I will back him up, take what he’s got and beat him up.’

Damn man, this is why I am a fan of Froch. Dood has got swag for days and he talks mad **** while able to back it up. His wife is hot as hell too... I'd trade lives with him in a minute.

Froch seems he is looking to self motivate... He is after a long layoff and he's quite old... I hope he's healthy and he still has his famous legs...

Triple G wud batter Froch

Even with Froch size advantage, i dont see him absorbing Triple G's power

I actually dont think Froch see's the final bell

Froch is too easy to hit, his style is based on taking punishment and waiting for his opponents to gas

There is something evil about Triple G, the way he just keeps coming at u, like a robot, with a smirk on his face

When he said he was carrying Munroe, i believe him

lol what a ******ed analysis.

Froch's a Baaaad Maaaan.

I can picture an absolute war.

I am a Froch and GGG fan but idiots like you make it hard for other people to like Froch. Is it your whole endeavour to make Froch and his fanbase look bad? Congratulations you succeeded.

Not long ago Froch made a poll on his own facebook page, who he should fight next. Your beloved Degale got the least votes by far, and who do you guess got the most votes? Exactly, Gennady Golovkin. Golovkin is by far the biggest fight for Froch right now. A middleweight that would move to your backyard to fight you? GGG is a superstar, Degale is internationally irrelevant, even in the UK GGG has more starpower. Deal with it. And tell Carl to be a man and accept the challenge. You are just afraid one of your favourite fighters might get beaten up while you should just be looking forward to a huge fight between two exciting fighters. Sore loser.

Why hasn't GGG fought on Sky sports his last couple of fights do you think?

I that couldy pond water has clouded your judgment.

Since been completely dominated by Andre Ward, he has fought Bute, Yusef Mach, Kesler coming out of retirement, Groves, Groves.

The Groves things I am sure is impressive for you brits as its your own super fight on the island, but completely irrelevant in terms of the actual landscape of the division.

Now he suddenly has the best resume in recent history?

We all still know Andre Ward is the best in the division, and would school Froch in a rematch again, as would Andre Dirrell most likely.

I respect Froch, he has massive balls, and puts them where his mouth is, but he is not skilled, he is a tough guy in a division that is fairly weak at the moment, and has managed to out tought all of the guys without the pedigree of Ward, Golovkin, Dirrell, etc...

Kudos to him for making it entertaining, but thats all it really was.

How is it completely irrelevant when Groves had been a top 5 SMW for 2 years, mandatory then and now mandatory and favourite to win his next fight, a WBC title.

If you don't think Groves was relevant, then you simply don't follow the SMW division and he was the highest ranked fighter Froch hadn't already fought or beaten.

I'd say he was relevant. Add to that, he dropped Froch like a sack a sht in the first round and beat him up completely in 6 rounds - the rematch was a pretty big fight.

Even in the US it was big and got good ratings.

froch fanboys embarrassing themselves

Froch and Hearn are saying they are interested in the fight yet fanboys are trying to justify when they don't follow through by saying ggg isn't a draw

Ok we know he isn't a draw and if froch was only gonna fight ggg based on that premise then he shouldn't have come out and said he's gonna fight ggg

Love to see the fight happen finally gives GGG an elite level match up.

[-PBP-]

I can't believe the idiotic questions. Why is that? Nobody goes out and convinces HBO to put them on PPV dumbfcuk. PPV is no panacea, if it bombs you don't make much. GGG is just not PPV because for that you either have to:

1. bring in a large ethnic fanbase, in the US at least.
2. beat an established star on PPV

Froch would get the lions share of the UK money, don't worry. He gets a chance for global spotlight he craves, against the most hyped guy in boxing, who is unproven and smaller and willing to fight him in the UK. What's not to like? The likely beatdown?

What you don't understand is that Froch doesn't need this fight. He's content with just chilling. If he doesn't like the finances, he's not fighting. If you want this fight to happen, somebody needs to open their pockets.

There is nothing you, I or anyone else can do anything about.

And it's not just Froch. Same with Cotto and all if these other proven vets that have put in work over the years.
