GGG vs Carl Froch

[Sid-Knee]

Man you guys are forgetting that the only reason GGG was hesitant was cause Canelo was beating him to the punch was quicker with his counters.
Froch is no were near the explosiveness of Canelo.
GGG knocks Froch out imo.

Gennady was hesitant against Stevens, Lemieux, and especially Jacobs. It wasn't just Canelo. Gennady never came close to knocking out Jacobs who had a glass chin but he's going to knock out someone with an iron jaw who is a higher weight class? Don't bet on fights no matter what you do. With predictions like this you'll lose all your money in double quick time.

amazing how ggg is now some cannon fodder in these mythical match ups cause he lost a decision at 36 in a fight most thought he won. he'd have outboxed froch who lets face it had more than 1 or 2 of his own limitations. groves almost had him out of there

That's how sports goes. There really is very little perspective within the time someone is fighting (either positive or negative).

GEE & Canelo don't lose to Domestic level fighters... (They SNACK on them)

Froch is a domestic level fighter with wins over Groves x2, Bute, Kessler, Johnson, Taylor, Abraham, Pascal and Dirrell? A 3 time champ who unified as well? Either you're a spoilt little hater with an axe to grind, or you really are this ******ed.

Froch will go down as a much better fighter than Golovkin and Canelo could ever dare to be. Canelo won't come close to matching that resume, he isn't good enough. Froch would smack him around and win clearly on the cards. He wouldn't just use his jab all night and still win both fights like Gennady did, he'd use his back hand all night and bust Canelo up all night.

Watch the Abraham fight to see what would happen if Froch and Canelo would fight. Froch would keep it long all night and wouldn't allow Canelo to bring in his left hook. Once that's shut down, Canelo is basically shut down. Easy work. Canelo's defence wouldn't do anything for him. He's just be a sitting duck while froch would work him over.

Lol ggg would beat him down then stop him

Just like he did with the mediocre and glassed jawed Jacobs? Gennady was hesitant all night, like in the Canelo fights. Could you imagine how hesitant he'd be against a vastly superior fighter who hits much harder and is also bigger and stronger than he is? It doesn't take a rocket scientist.

I think GGG matches up well with Froch.

Bute was pummeling ggg, if the ref didn't jump in and give him like 14 seconds to recover that was the beginning of the end. Must be nice for a ref to protect you when you're hurt.

ggg wasn't even dominant against Kassim Ouma at 29 years of age, try again. Arthur Abraham was more dominant at 160 than ggg.

Wow you're such an idiot, I don't know where to start.

You think a few seconds is all that allowed GGG to recover? Really? GGG wasn't even hurt. That's not even close to a real stoppage. All I care about is that that fight ended on a one punch ko by GGG.

And Ouma basically lost every round and got stopped.
Not dominant my a55.

If you want a guide to measure GGG and Froch, look no further than the Direll fight that Froch lost to him (robbed) and see how easily beat Direll.

YOU can try again. Hater.

Froch would've gotten on his knees and bowed before him, like he did against Jermain Taylor...

Getting knocked down means you bow to them? Froch wasn't hurt and got up to knock Taylor out. That's bowing down, when you take their soul.

Taylor is also a better fighter than anyone G has beat. If all Froch had to do is deal with the bums G did, then he would have ended them in a few rounds like he did with Mack. But there is no substance to beating that level of fighter. Sorry, but Froch is the superior fighter and proved that by beating a whole host of superior fighters. G comes nowhere near to being close.

ggg was clearly hurt from Bute's liver shots and Bute followed it up with head shots. The ref stopped Bute who was having his best moment of the bout of either fighter, allowed ggg 12 secs to recover, yet you don't think that affected the outcome?

The sole reason ggg even won gold was because the real 160 champion, Ward, was voluntarily fighting at LHW.



Ouma did not lose every round, the judges had it
87-84, 86-85, 86-85

Ouma was arguably winning the fight until ggg finally got to him late. Prime Kassim Ouma would've pulled off that W.




ggg barely beat Dirrel by 5pts in the amateurs lol, Dirrel is a much better pro just like ggg was a much better amateur.
Froch is also 10x the pro than he was as an amateur losing to Manfredo.

Dirrel dominated 160 champion Arthur Abraham, arguably beat Froch too. WTF has ggg done to compare to those accomplishments? Go life and death with Ouma, Jacobs, and lose to a guy with 0 wins at 160?

[Sid-Knee]

couldn't disagree with you more. Golovkin is better than Froch from every stand point. I'm not sure why boxing fans can't think in periods of more than last 12 months. Just because he didn't land well on Canelo doesn't mean he's am average boxer or has accuracy issues. Dude was one of the most accurate punchers in the world for past 5 years. Froch would be a mess by the 3rd round. He's made of iron, but he won't come close to Golovkin often and will look like lacy against Calzaghe.

Groves has been down a lot on his career. Stop comparing him to Golovkin. Maybe he has slightly better one punch ko power, but he's not close in every other department.

Golovkin by easy decision or mid-late ko.

Froch would be a mess by the 3rd round? Were Stevens, Lemieux, Alvarez, Jacobs, Murray, Ouma and the like a mess after 3 rounds? A bigger stronger superior fighter wouldn't fare a lot better than these guys, he'd fare less?

Froch is faster than Golovkin, puts combinations together better, and did so against vastly superior opposition. Froch is able to use his back hand at any given moment, Golovkin can't. He struggled badly with letting it go because he has to lean all the way over to do so. Against anyone good, they make Golovkin pay for it. Golovkin knows this which is why he was so hesitant against anyone who was a danger. Froch would be the biggest danger to him so he'll shut down even more.

Golovkin was accurate against garbage. Froch was more accurate against much better fighters. If Froch only had to fight the level Golovkin has his whole career, Froch wouldn't miss a single punch. So that means less than nothing.

Even if Golovkin had the hulk there to help him, he wouldn't come close to looking the way Calzaghe did against Lacy. Calzaghe was fast of both hand and foot and had all the skill in the world. Golovkin doesn't have any of that.

Golovkin sc****s past an average Jacobs, but he beats Froch by easy decision? You're not exactly in the realms of reality here. Nor does he come close to stopping Froch, that is just deranged.

All in all, stop smoking crack, man.

[Sid-Knee]

I know , mate.

I'm joking because i considered Froch an overrated fighter.

Froch is a better and more proven fighter than most Mexican fighters throughout history. Froch is a legit great fighter and a future HOF. You're just a biased idiot who has nothing good to say about British fighters but cry when people tell the truth about your guys and call them haters. You're one of the biggest haters on the site.

Name all these Mexicans throughout history who had a better resume than Froch? List those victories as well.
