Gennady Golovkin has joined the growing call for him to face Carl Froch at Wembley.

Golovkin has sent out a tweet to his fans to get their opinion, on the back of a Sky Sports interview with Barry Hearn.

Hearn said there is "no question" a fight between Froch and Golovkin would sell-out an 80,000 capacity Wembley Stadium.

Golovkin, who has knocked out 30 of his 33 victims so far, then asked for his followers' opinion - and they want to see it happen.

Froch though has said it is down to the "flip of a coin" as to whether or not he carries on boxing. It is almost a year since his last fight, the second knockout win over George Groves at a sold-out Wembley.

He is due to meet promoter Eddie Hearn and trainer Rob McCracken to decide what to do but he told Sky Sports News HQ that a fight with Golovkin does not worry him if he does prolong his boxing career.
