Comments Thread For: Hearn: Team Golovkin Trying To Entice Froch Out of Retirement

[ThatDude44]

They want to fight a 40 year old retired Froch. All time low for team G.

To be fair, GGG is like 40 too. Lol

I don't understand if GGG wants to move to 168 why not chase Ramirez or DeGale? I don't get it. I hope he fights Jacobs and Saunders next anyway, they are the real challenges at 160.

This is what they probably should be doing. Get the Jacobs situation resolved one way or another, then offer Saunders as much as they can afford. DeGale's not going to be free until after the Jack unification and then - if he wins - his mando with Mundo - so probably not until 2018. Probably Zurdo's the more likely option even if they are willing to get into another round of negotiations with a Haymon fighter.

hes a few years shy of 40 and his boxing life has been very easy on him. no wars, no struggles.....smooth sailing so far.

Froch is only Ward's best win if you are basing wins on a popularity contest... Kessler is Wards best win and he proved it by going on to beat Froch the next fight when he was clearly past his best coming off a bad loss.

None that are apparent to the naked eye however I'm willing to bet his extensive amateur career and 30 plus training camps have exacted a toll on his body......

[SchoolTheseCats]

If this is true and willing to fight froch at 170-172 why not just fight winner of Ward/kov since your trainer said you can beat them anyways so prove it

Thats what women do when you drop your drawers

Shit ... I wish I'd thought of that one!

Isn't Zurdo with Bob Arum?

Again, as I said about Mayweather, why does boxing need these old guys? There's Zurdo Ramirez, James DeGale, and Badou Jack! What's wrong with those 3?
