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

[Heavyfist]

Froch is an annoying loud mouth. Terrible personality.

I hope GGG puts Froch into a coma. That would bring me joy.

It would actually be a tough call to fight as Froch would have a big size advantage.

MW to SMW is a tough bridge to cross. Historically it always has been.

WHAT A FIGHT this would be. Boxing will be electric later this year and next, the big fights are all there and I'm sure they'll be made. And these fights all include Alvarez Golovkin Cotto and Kovalev. Throw in Ward and Froch and we have some crazy good match ups!

[Boxing Goat]

Yesssss!

Great fight on paper.

GGG crushes Froch though.

Look at how Groves caught him. GGG is infinitely the harder puncher and way more accurate.

Froch is too prone to brawl and will pay with his consciousness for it.

[SlySlickSmooth]

It would be a good way for Froch to leave the sport. Nothing wrong with losing to a rising knockout superstar at the tail end of your career.

[PulpFriction]

golovkin is all talk............thats lara froch. and now they came out and said ward is out of the question because of money.


how is he being ducked?

Ward is virtually unknown and brings no $$$. Makes perfect sense. Also, the super 6 glory is over, that was 4 years ago.

[Eastcoast]

Lol. 2 weeks ago Froch wasn't interested because it didn't make financial sense to fight Golovkin and that he'd be no different than Abraham because he's a small MW who went 11 rounds with Murray and he'd get no credit for it.

6min mark:


Now critics are jumping on Golovkin because they think seen flaws vs Monroe, suddenly Froch is interested. I'm hoping it happens.

[Beater_of_ass]

Well, hopefully this happens. These are the kind of fights I want to see GGG in, this fight could be a FOTY candidate. GGG could possibly move back down if he loses or even wins really, it'd build his name up for whoever wins the Cotto/GGG fight.

Froch is a wily old bird apart from being a warrior. He has shown some interest. Last week he was dissing Golovkin. At the weekend Froch saw some weaknesses.

He's probably thinking that he only needs to lay one similar to the punch that sent groves to sleep and he will have slayed a monster and further enhanced his legacy.

I agree. Before that he was hinting he'd fight DeGale, then he rules out the DeGale fight.

I think he watched the Monroe fight, felt that Golovkin looked vulnerable and thought "I'll have a bit of that".

Surprised Hearn saying it will fill Wembley, I wouldn't have thought it was a Wembley fight but then say if he puts Groves-DeGale II on the undercard, or another big fight then maybe it is.

[Achcauhtli]

Bring it to Vegas!

I'd definitely go to that fight! And if You have Chocolatito as the co-main, you'd have a very nice card imo

Tune up fight? Sorry, only pussies need tune up fights.

GGG has been fighting tuneups his whole career.
