Froch near to confirming PPV fight vs Chavez jr!!

[LacedUp]

Just in.

Froch about to land the Vegas fight!

"I've said before if I can't fight in Vegas I'll probably call it a day, it has to be big, and Chavez Jnr is that man, and I have had a good chat with my promoter this morning and we are making good progress with that fight and hopefully we'll have an announcement soon."

ITV is one of the major news networks in Britain, and a Froch direct quote is the best youre going to get.

Also picked it up from the central news report and reuters.

i dont know anyone who actually wants to see froch vs chavez jr, it's a garbage fight, chavez is mediocre / not very good.. just fight Degale, forget this vegas fantasy, it's an horrendous city anyway full of drunks, hookers and gambing addicts. someone needs to nuke that place and start afresh. i joke, cia.

Great news if it happens. Froch-Chavez would be an epic war.

[Weebler I]

For Froch-Chavez to happen I think Bob Arum has to be on board otherwise HBO and Hearn would risk upsetting a lot of people.

Irrespective of that, Chavez isn't a champion so Froch would still have to defend against his mandatory.

I would love to see that fight but it should have been made when Stieglitz was champ.

Oh okay. I thought I heard a few months back the same thing with Froch being quoted as well. Good news if it happens.
