    Carl should've had a couple of fights at light heavy. He never really faced a truly dangerous fighter and he just wasn't as good as Ward, and at least Andre had enough content in his ballsack to move up and take on the best 175 lb'er.

        marty feldman has no taste for the kind of beating he would sustain if he were fool enough to step into the ring with Triple GGG

          Exactly. I mean if GGG's team really said 166 or no fight, then we need that confirmed, but I don't think that's accurate.

          The biggest factor is Froch needs to realize why people say he ducked. The single biggest reason is because Froch himself said to swerve GGG like the plague, and then he retired before the fight could happen. So in a sea of "he said she said" from both camps, where no one knows the exact truth, that one definitive statement stands out above the sea of noise and gives people an impression, true or not, that Froch swerved GGG just like he said he would.

          That's what it's all really about. Do I think Froch ducked GGG? Not really, and I appreciate his honesty about how good GGG is. But that is the statement that makes people think he did duck GGG.

            Waiting on the hardcore Golovkin fans to come in and tell Froch he was afraid. Because his only choice was to fight Trip or retire.

              Wouldn't have happened chief. When would he have made the move? After Groves? Oh there was money out there for him. But look at his resume starting with Pascal, nothing but good fighters, and to finish Groves with that powerful right hand, Carl was finished! Where was he going to find the motivation after that..

              And if there's a 'truly dangerous fighter' category I gotta throw Abraham in, especially at that time of his career. He could definitely put you out with one punch.

              All the Ward stuff was right tho..

                The fight could have been done if both sides were really serious about it but as Froch says he was basically retired. With Canelo on their radar already I don't think Golovkin's team were that committed to pursuing it.

                  it could be confirmed by jesus himself that loughler and team ggg are full of crap so honestly saying it needs to be confirmed is pointless

                    It took you a year to decide to retire or stay active - and all the time you had Golovkin's name popping out of your mouth because your ego couldn't deal with not being in the spotlight.

                    When he goes in the HOF I hope they asterisk his name with "knowingly ducked Golovkin" ... just to pi5s him off.

                      Undoubtedly. He also mentioned his beautiful model wife.

                      I bet Froch has fantasies of fucking his beautiful model wife in front of 80,000 fans while Golovkin is forced to watch.
