    Eddie Hearn says Froch-Chavez Jr. close to being finalized+Brook/Khan & DeGale/Groves

    Source: http://www1.skysports.com/boxing/new...-almost-sealed

    Hearn is targeting the fight for the end of March in Las Vegas.

    Also says he is confident in making Brook-Khan and to look out for DeGale-Groves rematch.

    ***8220;Hopefully we get Froch-Chavez Jr made,***8221; Hearn told Sky Sports News HQ. ***8220;Out there [Las Vegas] I***8217;m trying to tie things up. We are looking at the end of March, potentially. It***8217;s a great fight ***8211; Carl gets his Vegas fight.***8221;
    ***8220;Just keep an eye out for DeGale against Groves,***8221; Hearn added. ***8220;I think we are going to make that fight for the spring-summer. Again, major, major animosity between the two. First fight was good ***8211; let***8217;s just keep the big fights rolling for Britain.***8221;

      The crowd at those UK events always seem full of life. Would love to attend a big fight over there one day.

          Froch will tee off on Jr. Gonna look like Mosley beating on Margarito.

          It's nice to be able to load up on every punch, because you know your target isn't going anywhere.

            Other than the article saying it's close, I didn't really get that vibe from what Hearns said.

            They still have that whole Arum issue to take care of

              I really really doubt Froch Chavez happens.

              Hearns nowhere said that the fight is close to being finalised. He said he is tying things up, and hopes to make the fight. That is pretty vague and meaningless.

              First off, we have the Jrs promo problems. He simply cannot fight, unless it is with TR.

              Secondly, Jr will want a tuneup before potentially facing Froch.

              And Jr has plenty of other opponents to pick from. Jr is the cheap pick from ugly Froch. If Froch really wants that Vegas fight, then he should fight GGG. Let GGG rearrange that ugly face into something better.

                He's going to Vegas to meet Haymon and Arum etc...that's about it.

                  Yea, as far as i've heard... he's only been talking to Haymon and not Arum. They might assert that Chavez Jnr isn't with Arum anymore, but I guarantee that'll start a long and drawn out court battle
