Who does everyone want to see him in with? I'd love to see him in with Kessler, would be a great, exciting fight. I think the more likely fight would be with Bute, which would also be a good fight.
Bute and Froch both keep their hands low, but Froch has his extremely low. It is a good job he has a solid chin. Both can bang, with each having around an 80% knockout ratio. Bute seems to struggle in knocking out good fighters who are near the top of their division, for example Andrade and Bika. Froch, on the other hand, knocked out Jermain Taylor with only seconds left, although this does not prove he is good in big fights, as he looked very nervous at the beginning and was knocked down for the first time in his pro career. What it does prove, however, is that he has good stamina and can keep throwing bombs until the very last bell.
Froch has courage; he went to the USA on his 1st defence of his title to fight a former undisputed champ, one who had defeated the great Bernard Hopkins twice. Bute has hardly ventured out of his country of residence, Canada (and only did so early in his career) giving him an edge. If the fight were to happen, it should either do so in England, giving Froch some extra support, or the USA (though they don't seem too keen of Froch over there).
A slight height advantage goes to Bute, who is 188cm tall to Froch's 185, (6"2 to 6"1) wheras Froch has a massive 11cm reach advantage.
All in all, I believe Froch will coem out on top due to his reach advantage, his durable chin and his knockout power. However, I think the result will come to a decision. It will be a closely contested fight if it happens, with lots of hard punches and I think a bit of clinching. But Froch's stamina should hold through, which could allow him to take a late KO.
