    Won't happen. Too good to be true. There is not a better fight in boxing that could be made.

      Sure, a Super Middleweight "swerving" a Middleweight. There is no one Froch had to fight, that he ducked. And don't name rematches, because that would just prove my point. GGG will hopefully come up to 168 and fight Froch, but I already called it: excuses excuses. Froch too tall, Froch too long of a reach, GGG looked too small.

      You're gonna see how your boy was a sham, and he only looked good because he has been fighting in an awful weight class.

        Interesting fight. Froch is a little aged, but is still tough and can still punch, and way bigger.

        I don't understand all the hate GGG gets. Here is a guy who fights four times a year, always looking for challenges, and always delivers. To me he is the performance benchmark that other fighters out there should emulate.

          When will you people understand that?
          When did I say that he would ? U PEOPLE need to work on your reading comprehension . If your having trouble following the literation in the thread maybe u should start with hooked on phonics .

            Do it, do it.

            Especially if it's in front 80 000 at the Wembley.

              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.
              Do you tug off to that quote? If you weren't a complete ****, you'd post the whole article with all the quotes.

                I can't see GGG as a 168 pounder. He's a prototypical, old school middleweight all the way. I know he spars bigger guys, even light heavies, but that's different.

                  It's not going to happen in September. It's not going to happen in 2015.
                  You will be waiting until mid 2016 at the earliest and that's if Ward can still make 168.

                      Needs to sort his pigmentation out.
