    Carl Froch VS Gennady Golovkin in London.

    That would be one hell if a barn burner. I could see Froch giving GGG his first loss.

    No shit...

    Golovkin is a middleweight. Abraham was a good middleweight but just isnt strong enought to deal with the bigger boys.

    Wow, never thought about this one. I change my vote. This is the fight I want to see! Golovkin is no Abraham. Abraham was almost purely power and will. Golovkin's power overrides his skill but he does have skill. He knows how to get his punches in there and if he can carry that scary power up a weight class...Ward might even be in trouble. Against the upper echelon at 168 Golovkin wouldn't just be a puncher's chance type. He has the skill to land his punches and get to his opponent. But he is not a big middleweight so we would have to see how his power is up there because I think he would need to be the stronger fighter to keep Froch honest.

    One man that is at play here is Stevenson. He was Butes mandatory prior to Froch and stepped aside and became Carls immediately after. He must have done it again for the unification fight and then managed to land the Dawson gig. Should he win I suppose he may not come back down but he's most definitely in the mix and a dangerous opponent.

    No one is mentioning Bika.

    He is fighting for the proper WBC belt on June 22nd against Periban.

    Bika Froch would be a fun fight and I could see Bika giving Froch a hard time. He is a big puncher and will not stand back and respect Carl.

    It could be fun, but imo froch would end up with a somewhat wide decision. bika any time he's mixed it up with the top 5 or so has always fallen short.

    None of those other fighters take half the punches Froch does. It would be fun because Froch is easy to hit and Bika is strong.

    Bika is a step back though in terms of legacy and money. I'm not sure what a win over Bute would do for him.

    I could see a Stieglitz unification fight being big.

    Also, a fight with Chavez Junior would be interesting

    Froch beat kessler by 2-3 rounds period.
    He also came on strong at the end and nearly knocked him out.
    Froch deserves nothing but props for his fearless attitude in his trade.
    He is one the best superweights and i wish him the very best in avenging his loss to ward.
    Ward is his only obstacle to greatness.
