So it seems Froch is down to potentially fight GGG...after Ward?

[DoktorSleepless]

Where did you get such figures from? Is that the split when a WBA regular champ fights the super champ? Actually I see this going to purse bids...and I fancy Hearn winning it and making the fight in England. Would be interesting what Ward does then.

75/25 was the mandated split used for Klitschko vs Povetkin in the same super/regular belt situation.

I think this fight makes more sense then a Ward fight for Froch,and damn sure for 3G..It's time for G to move up,and Froch is a hell of a test to see if he's ready for the big boys at 168lb..

If Froch beat undefeated Ward and GGG back to back he surpasses Cal and Roy as the greatest SMW of All Time and could very well have the best resume of the entire generation, including Floyd and Manny.

As a fan of boxing primarily, it's actually kind of exciting to think of the possibility of one of the current generation warriors like Froch to really build up a hellacious-looking ATG resume with these two potential wins. I'm not a fan in particular of Froch, or Ward for that matter, but for example for Ward, two wins over Froch as well as Dawson, Kessler, Abraham, and potentially GGG...that's a great resume also. As it stands, Froch probably has the better and deeper resume to Ward, and adding an avenged loss as well as beating GGG would be crazy.

Ward is exteremely jealous of Froch so he will never give Froch the chance to avenge that L, everyone know froch aint scared of **** unlike ward and all these other urban cowards.

Well, as I understand it, it's not a matter of choice anymore. Since it has been mandated, they either decide to fight or one of them gives up the belt. Will be interesting to see what happens, but Ward is sort of in a corner here...he has no one else really to fight and although there are risks and downsides to a Froch fight abroad, it could still potentially be a good payday for him and an easy fight if he shakes off the rust, and could make him relevant again.

I might be wrong but I think Hearn has been using Golovkin's name for a while to tease the fans. The possibility of Golovkin-Froch always seems to be in 6 to 12 months in the future with Hearn. I hope i'm wrong but I think Hearn is talking out his arsehole.

Yeah mate Hearn does talk a lot of crap, this isn't the first time he's said something along these lines, but we will see how it goes. I'll keep the faith for now.

Prime Froch gives GGG hell, today's Froch loses badly to the Kazakhstan monster.

Yeah, I figured.

Big boys at 168? Froch is arguably 'the' champ of 168, since Ward is inactive. A fight like you say to be a test would be someone like Abraham. Fighting Froch is essentially fighting the Number 1 or at the very least number 2 in the SMW division.

In fairness I think he has been pretty consistent that if it is ppv in the us the fight will happen until then they don't want GGG. But it is hearn so you could be right.

That claim is fair enough as it seems to be factually accurate. However Froch-Golovkin is PPV on Sky Sports in the UK. The reality is that Froch wants to earn similar or greater money fighting less risky opponents, which is fair enough, but it certainly doesn't cohere with Froch's image as the man who will face anyone.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Froch has always been down to fight Golovkin as long as the money is there for the fight.

Golovkin's stock is growing in America with increasing tv ratings on HBO. It will be a PPV fight soon enough.

It is already PPV on Sky. He just wants to fight easier opponents.

Why would Hearn need to use Golovkin's name? Need I remind you that Froch made £9million for his last fight whereas I'm not sure if Golovkin has even broke the million dollar barrier. What a ridiculous notion.

They've always maintained that if the fight was HBO PPV, then they'd fight Golovkin. Fighters don't just fight for "the love of the nerds online".

It's not HBO PPV.

This is not difficult to grasp.
