BoxingScene.com has been advised that a deal is very close for Carl Froch's defense of the WBC super middleweight title against mandatory challenger Jermain Taylor. The talks are at the point of finalizing the exact date and venue. If the fight falls on April 18, it may take place at the Theater in Madison Square Garden, and April 25 would likely see it go to Foxwoods. Showtime will televise.
Super middleweight contender Allan Green, who was orginally going to fight Taylor in the main event, will see action on the undercard against Carlos De Leon Jr. Some may remember De Leon as the fighter that knocked out a previously undefeated James McGirt Jr. last April in Florida.
