    Why not? GGG made 100k PPV in his last fight, Ward drew 300k in his last fight.

    Froch earned 10 x what they've both made in their combined careers alone in his last fight or two.

    I don't know what GGG would make vs Ward, but it probably wouldn't be more than a couple of million, maybe 2-3 AT BEST.

    Vs Froch it would likely be a lot more with dual PPV on the table.

      Seems natural to me.
      let's not get carried away here, a fight against Ward would make a lot of money too if promoted properly. GGG vs Froch will be big in the UK, but not in the US where the people pay for fights.

        Your problem 8s u don't understand the US market and u are basing your assumptions on Froch's recognition in the US. Froch is not as known in the US and he isn't even more popular than Ward here. That fight would generate money in the UK fir sure, most of which Froch will take home. In the US, it won't be a PPV type even and if it was turned into one it would bomb.

          Hmmm yeah right, they would probably make little over what they would make against ward, difference here is they beat a retired fighter and they lose to Ward, that is the risk they are not willing to find out. Now am all for fighters making money etc but after having the "Nobody want to fight him cra*p" shove down our throats for at least 3 years by the September 2012 GGG fanatics, am not willing to look at what they are "going to make" so whether it's "20 times more money" or 5 times more money i couldn't careless.

            A little more than what they'd make against Ward?

            Are you smoking crack? Don't lie through your teeth.

                lol what? Double PPV vs HBO PPV?

                Of course there'd be heaps more money from a Froch fight. Ward is like an unknown who couldn't draw worth anything if his life depended on it.

                Froch could fight me and it would be a bigger fight in the UK than GGG vs Ward.

                  Do you think Ward vs GGG is a much bigger fight in the US than Froch vs GGG in the US?

                  I mean, Froch's last fight drew 3 times what Ward's last fight drew in the US.

                    ...... Because a GGG vs Froch fight would be a free fight in the UK.

                      Is this your attempt to try and divert attention away from your ****** comment, despite you being the person who made the claim initially that Golovkin would earn "a little more" against Froch than against Ward?

                      What is "a little more"? Tell me, please. You're the only person acting like an accountant here, making bold claims you can't back up.

                      Use your brain and you'd realize Froch is much more popular and bigger than Ward.
