Froch put off his meetings for this week, he could still say yes.
If no Carl, personally I'd love to see Golovkin/DeGale on Sept 12 in London. I would bet everything Lemieux/N'Dam will not be willing to fight Golovkin this year. So realisticly if no Froch, I'd bet it's Lara in San Antonio (if Haymon allows it). It sounds like J-Rock is going to fight Culcay for the WBA regular title, so maybe Al wants Gennady to soften Lara up for his more appealing fighter.
ever since their names were mentioned before the monroe jr fight was signed, i've expected johnson or heiland to be golovkin opponents in the near future. but don't they mean to fight each other first? unless the lara fight gets made by some miracle, i see his 3rd opponent of the year being a sub-monroe jr level dud
Actually he should fight Jorge Sebastian Heiland but he'll probably fight Sam Soliman & his fans will say everyone was ducking so soliman was his best option.
Heiland/Johnson is supposedly in the works. Chris Eubank has nothing going on, but I doubt his team will take the risk. I think it's time to face a SMW like Medina/Neilsen.
As a Boxing fan I wanna see him vs Froch first and foremost or the winner of Alvarez vs Cotto. Cotto and Alvarez look set to fight each other but months away so that rules them out, Froch I don't see happening next either im afraid and Carl with one foot in retirement and with all the great challenges he's risen too owes it to no one to take on this guy when there is no mandate for it. Love to see it though and if in the UK im THERE! Failing those fights he should take Lara up and smash him in, he will get hate though as Lara is a 154 guy....
Best thing not for fans but GGG is that Oscar is serious and they get it on, The comeback of The Golden Boy would be huge man, u know it would do well with casuals and be a big earner for both, it would also raise Golovkin's profile big time and force the issue some more with top fighters, making the risk / reward ratio for them way more agreeable
Heiland/Johnson is supposedly in the works. Chris Eubank has nothing going on, but I doubt his team will take the risk. I think it's time to face a SMW like Medina/Neilsen.
No way Eubank gets thrown in with GGG yet, I wouldn't if I was them! He can go far though
