    froch is legimitately slow and easy to hit. jermain taylor had him on the deck FFS. bute, a guy froch outclassed, was knocked into next week by golovkin in the amateurs. the length and size didn't pose a problem in the amateurs, but ithink that's the question mark. froch had super long arms and he was taller than anybody golovkin has fought as far as i know.

    same with dirrell, who could easily get a nod against froch in their '09 fight, his speed and length didn't give golovkin a ton of problems in the amateurs. timing beats length if the fighter knows how to cut off the ring and use angles, which golovkin does. froch would be reduced to trying to win a firefight after he realises that this is not arthur abraham he's trying to outbox.


    froch had underrated skills, but he's still not skilled enough to deal with golovkin's offensive polish. he's just too easy to hit, and groves, taylor, kessler, ward, dirrell all proved that.
    The Kessler that fought Calzaghe would light up Golovkin I think,he wouldnt have the angles to deal with and i couldnt imagine Golovkin would have the same power Kessler had

      Abraham would lose on points

      Prime Sergio Martinez would completely outbox GGG,would look like Pac/Margarito

      Jermain Taylor and Kelly Pavlik would be far from easy fights to predict but they would be considered 50/50 fight in my mind....imagine Jermain Taylor or Pavlik fighting curtis stevens and lemuix in their primes or anyone else on GGGs resume

      Taylor would look like sugar Ray Robinson against GGGs competition in his prime

      Taylors weakness would be his stamina and I see him losing tbh but would be a great fight
      Man you know better than to use logic with these cats...

          thats true,GGG would be made for Calzaghe,slappy had a great chin and his angles would offset GGG,its a no brainer he would dominate GGG but I bet some of these fanboys on here would disagree

            exactly. styles make fights. golovkin would just wander around the ring getting slapped and nodding his head like, "yeah, you slapped me." maybe he chins joe, but joe would get right back up and slap him again.

              Golovkin and Abraham, from what I can see, are just about parallel fighters, except that Abraham didn't bother with the super extensive amateur career, so predicting a pasting is a bit much.

                mentioning Murray "beating" Abraham is like saying Tarver beats a prime Roy ,or Calzaghe beats Jones anyday because he beat him when past it

                by all accounts the faded Abraham having a close fight with Murray only acknowledges he would have spanked him easy in his prime


                I suppose Wlad in 2010 against Fury would have been the same outcome aswell
                what destroyers did 'king' arthur beat though? His 'prime' was basiclly before he fought people who were good lol. Was favourite for super 6 if i remember (or right up there) then froch won every round against him and he was then said to be 'past prime' desppite being the ripe old age of 31.

                    Canelo is heavier than Golovkin. He's just draining himself.

                    Golovkin is not heavier than the Super MWs. Canelo is a MW, period, he is not a super welterweight.

                      GGG. Arthur in no point in his career has ever been ranked P4P as high as GGG is by most. He doesnt have any particularly great wins, and unlike GGG hes been well and truly pasted on more than one occasion, pretty conclusively shown he isnt top leve.. I really dont have the strength to have to defend GGG against some fighter who isnt on his level, the people who you are all saying would beat GGG is getting more ludicrous by the day.
