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

[HeroBando]

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

It's not a PPV in the States. It's a UK PPV if they fight there, and would do very well at the gate.

I know, it should be in Froch's hometown he's the draw and on HBO not PPV. If it was on PPV though, I'd buy it.

And of the fight happens, golovkin stops froch

You already sounded like an idiot before May 2nd happened...

Why continue being ignorant?

[hitking]

Of course Froch is interested in a GGG fight. GGG looked like hammered dawg **** last Sat. Not only that. The holes Monroe exposed in his game are things that Froch can exploit.

Yep. That's how Donaire beat Rigondeaux so easily - his vastly superior resume! Donaire won what, every round?

That sarcastic post ******. Because Donaire's resume was trash. That 4-fight 2012 ****** so bad. Donaire one-upped Rigo with just the Darchinyan win, nothing else.

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.

In my experience Golovkin is one of the better known fighters amongst casuals too. He's a guy regular watchers aren't afraid to recommend.

I hope this fight gets signed for their very next fight. I can't wait to read all the Golovkin buffoons talking about how small GGG looked in the ring and how Froch only won because he had longer arms and was too tall and refused to trade, or some BS of how GGG was too green and wasn't ready to upgrade from C level fighters at MW to an A level fighter at Super Middleweight. Or how GGG needs to go back down to 160 cause he bit off more than he can chew at 168. Excuses, excuses, from the usual suspects too. I would name names but it's funnier actually seeing them in action after the fight. Please make this fight happen. Golovkin is so defensively limited, this is gonna be the first time Froch will actually represent his nickname, since the Abraham fight. And his offensive game? Sorry but Froch is not part of the weak punching/weak chinned crew from 160 that GGG is used to. Froch has fought so many difficult styles, so many punchers already, that GGG will be a noticeable downgrade. A past prime Jermain Taylor will end up winning more rounds and doing better than GGG will do against Froch.

I'm not sure about this, I'd have picked Froch a year ago or two ago, Golovkin has come on a bit and Froch hasn't fought in a while.

Lets hope Froch can swerve him no more

[i'm a fun haver]

Exactly ; everyone wants to see GGG/Ward because its the two best in and around that weight class and it has the lowest predictability outcome ratio for both fighters . Who cares about putting 80,000 butts in Wembly @ .99 cents a seat ? I know , some exaggerated hyperbole , but lmao nevertheless

Ward is NOT going to fight in September.
When will you people understand that?
