Carl Froch Vs Gennady Golovkin: Carl Froch AKA “Too Big Too Strong for Golovkin” Rejects Jackpot against the Middleweight Champion

Since the first half of the current year, Carl “Cobra” Froch has named Gennady “GGG” Golovkin an only motivator to be able to get him back to the ring. At the same time, the British fighter, while thinking of himself as being “too big too strong” for Golovkin, somehow rejects facing him. While, he is given a “smaller and weaker” guy, promises of sold out Wembley, a highest career payday as well as backyard as a venue…

“GGG” Golovkin has constantly been expressing a desire for facing Froch. Recently, at Klitschko vs. Fury event in Dusseldorf, Germany, Golovkin`s manager Tom Loeffler and Carl Froch himself met up, where Froch set out another demand, this time asking Golovkin to go up to 170-172 pounds from the previous 168 pounds negotiated. Given that Wembley would be the most probable venue for their possible match-up, “GGG” would acknowledge A-side household status of the British fighter. As such, Loeffler`s countenance expressed readiness to consider 170-172 pounds demand. Because there have been no explicit signs alluding to possible barriers from Golovkin`s side up to this point, it leads us to a thought that Carl Froch himself is the sole brake to the process. Yet, the truth is that the British has nothing to do but to get in his Gelendvagen and drive straight to Wembley, with the rest business falling on Golovkin`s shoulders, who would be to gain 10-12 pounds.

Time works against a 38-year old Nottingham pride, who last appeared on the ring on May 31, 2014 against George Groves. Given Froch`s age and length of inactivity, the probability that he will share the ring with “GGG” is vanishing at accelerated pace. Inconfidence and fear are those associations that come up when someone seeks for rationale to explain Froch`s such continuous wavering with Golovkin. A question arises whether “Cobra” aka “too big too strong” would ever step in against “GGG”, if he was younger.

One more night at Wembley seems more of a guaranteed investment rather than real estate business or poker game, Froch has been engaged in.
