Comments Thread For: Team Oosthuizen: We Turned Down The Carl Froch Fight

[Albeerto]

A) Froch vs Cloud
B) Froch vs Pavlik

What u guys think?

[Mick Higgs]

team Oostuizen have done the right thing here. Froch would have cleaned his clock, just as George Groves will in time. Froch should give Stieglitz a good hiding while Oostuizen should be sounding out Brian Magee or Stieglitz. No boxer is a coward, but Stieglitz does tend to pick & choose. Kessler & Pavlic are also good options. When's Degale fighting next?

I like the Pavlik fight.

Pavlik hasn't fallen off the badly that he can't go to war with Froch for as long as it lasts.

Perhaps the negotiations were to save face so it didnt look like Tommy had to say "im not ready yet". I guess the proof will be in the selection of his next opponent. If he fights a no hoper, then we know this was just a face saving exercise but if he fights a real live opponent, then perhaps it was simply the wrong terms for Tommy and he had better options elsewhere.

I would love to see Pavlik beaten sober, but someone already made a great point I hadnt thought of, that Arum might be saving Pavlik for Chavez's 168 party if Martinez flattens him.

Whoever Froch fights im sure it will be good TV

Froch has already beaten Magee (CF claims he had a broken hand), I just can't see him fighting BM again.

Kessler is a good fight for Magee, he will likely lose but it may be his last shot at a big payday.

You are right. I forgot about that fight.

A long shot could be Stieglitz if he beats Abraham.

I doubt Pavlik wants to leave the US to be honest. Cloud? Doesn't he have a fight lined up?

Oh yeah. But would Froch fight at LHW? He looks perfect at 168.

[Albeerto]

Maybe a catchweight or full 175. I think that fight is winable for the cobra.
