    Who's next for Froch?

    Has there been any word on who is next in line to face Carl Froch?

    Kelly Pavlik, early next year.

        Man I hope it's Bhop, but I don't think it'll happen. There's talk of him unifyin wit Bute, and a Pavlik fight next yr.

          Bute seems likely and if he gets past him then Pavlik awaits

          Hopkins is still in the mix but that seems less probable than Bute

            Is it really true that, thanks to his management, Kessler won't be fighting for... I dunno, many years yet? :shk1:

            Regardless, that would've been a great match for Froch. Bute otherwise, or maybe the winner of Jones-Lacy.

              If he fights Pavlik or Kessler he better learn how to defend and keep his hands up, thats for sure.

              Ive not seen enough of Bute to give an opinion about him.

                I hope Hopkins. Would be hilarious for Hops to cane him a year on from him saying he was a past it old man. He just wouldn't land.

                  Froch/Bute is in negotiations, but it's not finalised. If that falls through, then i see him taking a possible madatory (Ward/Dirrel?). I'm sure Carl's promoter (Hennesey) is smart enough not to put him in the ring with Hopkins.

                  From what Bob Arum has stated, Froch is one of Pavlik's targets for next year provided he finishes the year unbeaten (Sturm fight possible).
