Kessler looks explosive in comparison to Golovkin. Even Abraham's combination punching looks like rapid fire in relation to Golovkin's.
GGG will look pedestrian.
I think the phrase you are looking for is measured. Carl could end up like a traffic calming measure himself by the end of the night.Quote:

GGG has not forgot the boxing fundamentals that gave him a stellar amateur career but walking through smaller opponents than Carl does not mean he will be so complacent against a smw.
;D you got me.Quote:

If the power carries up then it is a huge problem for Froch.
Honestly though, I see this going the same way as

Come on Carl, sign up and give the public a big fight that actually lives up to the hype. Boxing needs a fight like this.
This has the potential to be a classic. It's a pretty mouthwatering match up to say the least.
I totally agree. Froch, even half-retired, will smash GGG. Froch is too big, Golovkin's defense is suspect, and Golovkin's level of competition has done nothing to prepare him for someone like Froch. It won't even be competitive.Quote:

Froch has not fought in a year and takes loads of punishment himself!
The guvnor has piped up. If Bazza like's it...
Barry Hearn confident that a fight between Carl Froch and Gennady Golovkin would fill Wembley | Boxing News | Sky Sports
could be closer to happening than expected.
The Hearns obviously want the fight. What promoter doesn't want to do a huge Wembley/PPV show.
Golovkin and his promoter want it. So it's down to Froch. Either Froch is telling the truth when he says he's going to sit down with various people and talk about whether he fights again or it's just a negotiating ploy -- I want this size piece of the split or I'm not playing -- and Froch and Hearn are both using the possible retirement to get the best deal they can in negotiations.
I think if he was going to retire he would just have retired. He's left the door open because he still fancies a big payday. Another big Wembley show, PPV and so on. Notice not a word about this fight being in Vegas. If fighting in Vegas was really the most important thing to him they could make the fight with Golovkin in Vegas in a flash. Now he's saying if he does fight again it'll be Golovkin.
There's no way under normal circumstances he turns down a five million quid payday. If he does turn down the fight it'll be because he's scared of ending his career getting flattened like Groves.
Froch will take this in a heartbeat. I am surprised GGG has though.
Froch is too easy to hit. Golovkin stops him for me. Quite early on too.
I do not think any super middle stops Froch.Quote:

Really ballsy move if GGG does that. He would have to be a lot sharper defensively than he has shown recently. He may have it in him I can't say if he was just trying to bang or if he is hittable the last few fights.
