Carl Froch has spoken out about a possible rematch with Jean Pascal, the WBC/IBO light heavyweight champion. Froch won a twelve round decision over Pascal in 2008 to capture the WBC title at super middleweight. He is open to a rematch once his contractual duties are complete with the Super Six tournament. Froch will fight Pascal anywhere, including the United States, but not in the country of Germany.

"A rematch is something I would honour the man. Whether we do a catch weight or title fight – it’s something I would consider after the Super Six has concluded. A fight with Pascal would have all the ingredients and the Bell Centre looked very good indeed. So long as Marlon Wright didn't referee it then that would be an option. Or we could do it here in the UK as he has won over a lot of fans this side of the pond too. British boxing fans voted our last meeting the fight of the year, so you just know it would sell like hot cakes here too. I'd be up for it in New York or Vegas even - anywhere outside of Germany would be great," Froch told livefight.com.

As far as Chad Dawson, who Pascal upset last Saturday night, Froch wasn't too surprised. He thought Dawson was a bit exposed but not on the same level as Joe Calzaghe exposing Jeff Lacy. Froch says the next fight for Dawson will be very critical for his career.

"Was Chad exposed? I think he was slightly if we're honest. When we are told again and again how great someone is... and then they aren't it does leave you feeling a little short changed. But hat's off to Pascal he got the win and looked strong enough at the end to have finished the fight regardless of the cut. I don't think Chad Dawson is fool's gold like Jeff Lacy was. But he has a lot of doubters now. His next fight will be pivotal to his career in that sense," Froch said.
