    You're boring me. You should email BS UK editor and ask for retraction on " by far the most lucrative "
    You think casual fans look at odds for boxing? LOL.....

    They just watch boxing if they have heard of the guy fighting and clearly no one had heard of Golovkin or his amazing hype.

      Froch v GGG would be a big fight in the UK period. Discount the american money as unimportant in the equation then if you wish. I'm not too pushed about the issue anyway. As I said either fight would kick ass. and both would be very big
      It would be big because mostly any Carl Froch fight would be big at this stage.

      Would it be as lucrative as a DeGale fight in the UK? Nope....and that's the discussion.

        GGG fans have to continually make things up to hype their guy
        Oh, it is OK to act as if whatever Sanchez or Loeffler say comes directly from GGG mouth. But for Froch - no, if you're uncomfortable with the message, you separate them.

          Like I said, if Hearn had his way then Froch would still be fighting regularly because he's the biggest star in the UK.

          Hearn threw Murray's name out there because he promotes both and it would put more money in his pocket to make that fight.

            Bute was at 170lbs in his fight earlier this year and only went as high as 173lbs vs Pascal. If DeGale doesn't jump on him right away, I think Bute's confidence will grow and he'll become more aggressive and cause DeGale all sorts of problems.
            The article you are quoting reads that they sold about 7,000 tickets and that the arena will be configured as an amphitheatre of 12,500 seats -- which significantly smaller than the 20,000 seats configuration with the ring in the middle... and I remember when Bute used to sell a 20,000 seats Bell Centre...

              Not only did he take a devastating loss to Froch, but he became very inactive afterwards. Bute/Pascal did very well. Maybe they need Eric Lucas to come back and jump start the Montreal scene once again?

                  ... as you remembered Lucas, Stéphan Larouche immediately came to my mind... Larouche was the worst thing which happened to Bute... Larouche was never able to teach Bute anything, but he managed to hype Bute into somebody he never actually was...

                    Not really. I don't have anything against Golovkin himself, he might even fight Ward if it were solely up to him.

                    It's unfortunate that he's just a puppet who is very well protected and managed by his team and the powers that be who probably don't have the same confidence he does.

                      Even that ****** Dirk Diggler is on my ignore list. here is the recent video that again proved how wrong you were.

                      GGG is the bigger fight and the only fight that would make Froch come back.



                      Like always Diggler got owned.
