Comments Thread For: Ward's Trainer: Froch Likely Too Big/Strong For Golovkin

[bronx7]

Ward beat Froch easily with one hand and cleaned out whole division during the tournament still has haters imagine Floyd being in a tournament where you don't choose who when and where you fight? Lol just bring 1 back from the past Ray hearns all kilm

Let's see them fight at any weight (just to get Froch in the ring with GGG), and we'll see who is stronger, hits harder, is the better boxer, and has the better chin. I'll take GGG - under any circumstances short of his suffering a serious injury or extreme illness (weight-class, gloves permitted (Carl can use 6 ounces of his choice, and GGG must use 12 ouncers of Carl's choice), fight location (Nottingham is fine - in fact, invite the sheriff), and Froch can even have Terry O'Connor to help him back to his stool). Still GGG will pulverize Froch - it is only a matter of what round that GGG K.O.s Carl.

GGG has never been hit by anybody like Froch before, that's going to be his test.

Bout won't ever happen, golovkins too busy fighting taxi drivers and then making up excuses "No one wants to fight me." Biggest hype job the sport has seen in the past decade. And you're just drinking the kool aid.

Ive been saying Froch is no damn joke, call his ass limited all you want but he doesnt run 168 division for no reason.

[tokon]

Yeah let's see Froch fight him at the middleweight limit then we'll see who's stronger. You're fighter too.

GGG's team are on record as saying that he'll come to 168 and the UK for a fight with Froch. Hearns should call them on it and get the fight in Nottingham or Manchester. Let's see if GGG will actually step up.

[MDPopescu]

Did Froch signed for this fight and we don't know about that?...

... Until I see Froch sealing the deal I don't bother to speculate...

[No Tomorrow]

Froch is in no way "stronger" than Gennady. Gennady would bully guys in the clinch all the way up to LHW.

Where have I heard this before? Oh yeah...

LAS VEGAS -- A Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight is potentially the most attractive in boxing, but one thing Floyd Mayweather Sr. and his brother, Roger, agree upon is the difficulty Pacquiao faces in a Nov. 14 blockbuster against Miguel Cotto.

"I don't think Pacquiao is going to get past Cotto," Roger Mayweather said. "He may beat Cotto, but he's got to show it to me. Why would you fight a fight of that nature, and that big of the risk, with the kind of money him and Floyd could make? That doesn't make sense to me."

Mayweather Sr. trained Ricky Hatton for a second-round blowout loss to Pacquiao earlier this year but predicted the bigger Cotto would prevail.

"I do think that with his strength and power, the way he hits to the body, the way he hits to the head, I think he's got enough to take Pacquiao," Mayweather Sr. said. "I think they're really pushing Pacquiao too much."

Virgil Hunter, trainer of WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward, says 168-pound contender Carl Froch (33-2, 24KOs) is likely going to be too big and strong for WBA/IBO middleweight king Gennady "GGG" Golovkin (33-0, 30KOs).

For the last few weeks, a lot of noise has been made with respect to a potential Froch vs. Golovkin showdown in the UK.

Froch has been inactive since last May's knockout victory over George Groves before 80,000 fans in Wembley Stadium.

Ward and his trainer are just hoping that the Frocc/GGG fight doesn't happen. Because what if GGG pounds Froch. That would mean that Ward isn't that special after all. Time will tell.

Please point me to an interview where Golovkin made such a statement. GGG has NEVER claimed that any fighter was avoiding him or afraid to fight him. He has always stated that he understands the politics and the business end of the sport and that it can be difficult to set up the fights he would like to have.

NOT ONCE WILL YOU EVER FIND GOLOVKIN DISPARAGING ANY OTHER FIGHTER OR MAKING CLAIMS THAT SOMEONE IS DUCKING HIM.
