        There's literally no chance at all because they're on different channels.

            Same.

            Cleverly won't be in with anyone dangerous anytime soon.

            I imagine Warren will have him fight no hopers most of his career and rack up pointless title defenses then put him in a handful of legit fights at the end of his career then call him great like one of his fellow countrymen.

              So...

              Stevenson - has to beat Dirrell
              Stieglitz - has to beat Abraham
              Groves - no
              Barker - no
              Cleverly - no
              Hopkins - no
              Oosthuizen - unlikely
              DeGale - ?
              Andrade - ?
              Bika - possibly

              nothing too exciting on that list.

                  terrible fight. andrade was never on frochs level, now hes spent from a career of taking punishment and cant even take a punch anymore. he damn sure cant avoid one.

                  froch would walk right through him in a 3 rounds or less one sided ass whuppin'.

                    If Groves does the business against Sierra (and in style) I'd say that would be a great match up. Groves is a 'name' in the UK after his DeGale bout (remember the HUGE build up?), has a great KO %age & trained by Adam Booth who also knows how to promote a bout. I think it would sell well. We may not think it at the time as George has been out of the ring since November but one decent/spectacular win & I think this fight could sell 15,000/20,000 tickets in October.

                    There's an argument that Groves is still too green but even a good showing in a loss wouldn't hurt his career too much & I'd certainly have him a 'live' underdog. Remember, before the Bute destruction Carl had only stopped Shaky Jermain Taylor in seven bouts (admittedly against A+ opposition).

                    They could even hold the Haye - Chisora rematch on the undercard

                      There isn't anybody left or anybody that will be available really...

                      Barker is at middleweight, coming off a K.O loss to Sergio and is scheduled for September so not sure why hes being mentioned really.

                      But I do have a suggestion on the basis nobody else is ready & that is a very heavy handed, undefeated Argentinian by the name of Ezequiel Maderna who is destroying guys but again it would be a huge step up in class for him.

                      Magee rematch is pointless though I do feel hes improved.

                      Karoly Balzsay would sell well in Germany & is coming off some impressive wins.

                      Froch vs Kessler rematch is the only fight that makes sense to me at this stage.
                      Have that & Pavlik vs Bute.
