As much as I rate GGG, I can see Froch winning this.
I like both guys though so wouldn't mind seeing either win.

stiff upper body and robotic like khan (standard for euro fighters), avg defense and squares up on a dime. when GGG drops him, he won't recover. Under 7. GGG fully hydrates at weight-in to his 300 amateur fight weight of 167. End of Froch. Both he and Chavez Jr are made for Mexican Style.

Froch is hard as nails, he will only be beat by slicksters, ggg has to out box him to win... Don't see froch getting stopped...

Will be a good fight.. this can finally be the spark boxing needed.

After this GGG vs Cotto or Canelo, almost guaranteed a fight unlike Hugweather.

wrong type of fighter, no angles, just square, for GGG. try Ward or Andrade (future 160). if he goes the distance, he will get beat up like murray.

1.Boxing point system in MMA fight? that's horrible, lots of misjudged fights has happened and still is.
2.Wall & stall, Lay and pray is killing the sport.. Yellow/red cards should be introduced
3.knees and kicks down opponent+ 12o'clock elbows should be allowed, ridiculous to ban those.

Mcgregor vs Aldo, rousey vs cyborg are the only ones I'm interested to see, plus the Reebok deal is hurting fighters purse a lot..

GGG will win this. I like FROCH but like G Thang said, Froch is made for GGG. Froch did not look great in either Grove fight, in fact he was losing both before getting the kayo. Froch peaked a few years ago and even at his best he had a very poor defense. Style wise this is a bad fight for Froch.

looking likely

Froch needs another big payday before he retires,
i think he'll take it. i remember Hearn saying a year ago that he had it on good authority that the only fighter GGG was apprehensive of was Froch because of his physicality and reach.
was likely just talking shit, knows Froch is facing trouble against GGG but Froch is a powerhouse for sure.
would be insanely good if it happens!

could set up a phenomenal four-way rivalry between GGG, Froch, Ward and DeGeale.

Ward will embarrass Paul Smith next month and i think DeGeale will beat Dirrell (close though) setting up some great fights.
Groves in the mix too.

Triple G`s a good boxer but thus far,in reality, has only fought a bunch of tomato cans.

Froch is hard as nails, think of someone like Marciano toughness and you get some idea

I always seem to disagree with our boxing experts analysis, g-thong must have been a top boxer in his time...

Who said froch was loosing the 2nd groves fight?, he won every round before he knocked him clean out, was a brutal knock out too

I like ggg but ge hasn't fought at that level with real hard bastards yet, they have all been good but not top world level

muscleman-2013 · « **Reply #16 on:** May 21, 2015, 11:11:04 PM »

Froch is a great boxer! Chin of steel.

BigCyp · « **Reply #17 on:** May 22, 2015, 01:59:26 AM »

Would be 10 x the FMW/Paq fight (obviously not financially but in boxing entertainment value) I've always wanted to see this fight, and personally think Froch will get a big margin on the decision.

He only got knocked down by Groves, because he massively underestimated and disrespected him. Once he was up, completely different fight and pummled him to get the stoppage.

The next Groves fight, froch knew exactly what he was getting and smashed him to pieces, it was brutal.

GGG is a beast, and probably the hardest shot pound for pound, but as it's been said he hasn't fought any world class champions with a chin/stamina/boxing ability like Froch.

TBH, Groves is a Euro level fighter and that fight only got huge exposure since it was all all British affair. Anything other than a Froch victory in that fight would have been a major shock.

GGG is unproven at 168 and against fighters of Froch's calibre. Not to mention he'll have the physical disadvantages so expect Froch to really utilize his jab.
However, Froch ain't getting any younger and he loves a tear up which will play into GGG's hands.
Really tough fight to predict and no outcome will surprise me.

A victory for GGG will be better for the sport but I don't see Ward losing to anyone at SMW and LHW.

If the fights at Wembley, I'm down.

Good point, Froch's biggest weakness is that he enjoys squaring off and eating punches (which is GGG's case, is probably not going to taste too nice lol).

I would love to see Froch win it and retire just for the post match interviews where he sucks his own cock hahaha love that he doesn't give a shit about how much he loves himself.

Froch showed against Abraham that he can fight smartly but that's probably the only fight I've seen where he hasn't taken too much damage. Almost every other fight of his ends up being a war.

I think boxing as a sport needs hype. As hype gives the sport more exposure. And if GGG KO's Froch, the hype surrounding him will go into overdrive.

froch doesnt have the legs to stick and move anymore he is too old he has to rely on being a tough fucker and trade with GGG

Bingo.

You're only 'the most feared fighter in the middleweight division' if fighters are trying to get away from you, or they can't take your power. Froch is the antidote lol.
