      ive posted my thoughts on this before and ive always said that i think froch would knock him out,
      bigger size, long reach, not the fastest fab but its effective and can keep opponents busy if he uses it properly,
      with his chin and power, he wont just back away when GGG lands, he will punch back and go toe to toe...

      frochs jab and straight right hand will be important and key,
      GGG will try to come in and and land something early,
      but once he feels the venom of the cobra in that right hand and jab,
      it will be a matter of time until he breaks GGGs will and knocks him out...

      lets not forget froch gets stronger the longer the fight goes on...

      look at how fast groves is and in the second fight frochs jab kept him really occupied, how would GGG deal with that jab when hes like got 5 inch reach disadvantage...

      i keep hearing peeps going on about golovkins foot work and the way he cuts off the ring, that froch jab will just break his rythem...

      every single time froch gets in the ring, i still cant believe the amount of peeps that doubt him...

        Tough fight, feel it goes the distance. Golovkin via unanimous decision.

            Froch's corner stops the fight in the 11th.

              I feel that Froch should certainly be the favourite with his experience and so on, however, people are seriously underestimating GGG's boxing abilty (345-5) and I look forward to seeing him utilise his boxing skills vs Froch. He's not ****** enough to think he can go balls to the wall and risk getting KTFO.

                i think froch is the favourite but when it comes to fight night he wont be classed as the favourite...

                yea he can box he has the ability,
                but he will have respect for froch and once he feels frochs strength,
                it will change the equation...

                another thing is as well if froch comes in and takes the centre of the ring and brings to GGG, how will he fight on the back foot?
                thats another problem for GGG in my opinion...

                he is a good fighter i rate him but i think froch is getting underestimated...

                  Id favor Carl for the Stoppage/UD

                  I think GGG would have to fight a totally different fight. He wouldn't be able to bully him around the ring like he has been used to at middle weight. And he'd have to fight constantly on the inside or the back foot.

                  Carl would look to come out straight away, take centre of the ring and push GGG back. And from what Ive seen in GGG fights would be alien to him.

                  If both started swing bombs, Id expect carl to be able to Tank alot more of them than GGG can.

                  In the past their hasn't been alot of boxers who have successfully moved from Middle to Super Middle. The last ones I remember being successful are Jones Jnr, Eubank & benn And then it was a relatively new weight. I mean look at Arthur Abraham, hes lost against every single elite super middle hes fought. Jamain Taylor, Pavlik when he moved up to fight Hopkins, Chavez Jnr.

                  For GGG to move up and win, will go against the grain of most people who have tried before. I'm not for a minute saying he can't but its a tough ask esp to go in with such a seasoned pro whos know for his fitness and granite chin.

                    I think alot of the success Glenn Johnson showed vs Froch, Golovkin will also have and more.

                      Carl was extremely lazy for that fight, he also had a perforated ear drum. I watched it and it was prob one of the most boring fights ive seen carl in.
