    Froch: "I'll Face Lucian Bute or Bernard Hopkins Next"

    WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch say his next fight will take place in September and if he doesn't get a unification bout with Lucian Bute, the IBF champion, then he will face Bernard Hopkins. Bute is still the frontrunner, but Hopkins is the secondary choice for the potential return date of September 5. [details]

        B-Hop is the worst possible style matchup for Froch. He'll get schooled.

        Bute would be a more competitive fight.

          BHop would put Froch into retirement

            Agreed.

            Hopkins will toy with this fool.

              The reason I'm not 100% sure Hopkins will execute him like he did Pavlik is Froch's will... He won't give up like Kelly and he'll give it his all till the final bell rings.

              If Hopkins can avoid gassing before round 10/11 he'll win very, very easily. But if he gasses early due to the continual pressure it might be closer, and he maybe suffers point deductions for clinching and stuff

              I'll love it if the O.A.P., in Froch's own words, takes him to school

                Hopefully he fights Bhop.

                Bhop with a third division title sounds nice.

                  Either fight is cool wit me, but I want Bhop to get a shot.

                    Bhop, because of Froch manages to win it (somehow) would be a massive upset, and we would be considering Froch as the second coming.

                    IMO.
