Who do you most want to see Carl in next with?
I think I've covered his options based on what is on offer to him.

It won't happen, but a fight with Groves would be interesting in the UK at least.
A fight with Ward seems pretty pointless to me no matter where they hold it. Ward is in a different class and has already beaten Froch very convincingly. Froch did well tonight, but anyone who thinks he could give Ward a serious fight is getting carried away.
To be honest I'd love to see him fight Kessler again on neutral ground, perhaps in the US.
Froch is 35 and needs big pay days now. Bernard Hopkins would bring him a ton of money.
Hopkins/Froch would be pretty cool.
Fight Ward in the UK, but not in the US.
Otherwise, fight Chad Dawson.
Beating old Hopkins would do nothing for Froch's legacy, but Hopkins beating Froch would add to B-Hop's legacy. So it's better for Froch to pass on a B-Hop fight.
At this point in Carls career Hopkins is the dumbest choice he could make both as a business move and a boxing move. He does not need Hopkins, beating him means dick and there is not a truckload of money in it. Froch talked about a catch weight fight after tonight and I just don't see the reason for it.
Rematch Ward. Its the biggest fight in the division and Carl even offered to fight him in Denmark.
I would like Froch to fight Ward in a rematch at some point, but while it is there, I'd love a 3rd fight with Kessler. That was great to watch tonight, and boxing needs more quality fights like this.
Please let it not be Hopkins. I have to say, Kessler looked damn good losing. I hate when the announcers say the loser had a lot of heart but in this case it is true. I will definitely research that one.
I don't think a win over Hopkins is to be tossed into the trash, and I don't think Froch win is totally out of the question. He may be fit for a museum but hes not dead. Hell, do as Joe did. If he says he'll go to Froch in his hometown and its already in the wind...theres your money! Without a doubt. I do think he needs to go after Ward though...he pointed out he revenged Kessler and now has Ward. I don't fancy his chances and unless he travels again it'll be bogged down in negotiations. Ward is smug and on record has the upper hand, therefore he'll prob go with Kessler 3 or Hopkins, at least first.

Ward, of course and stay away from Hopkins. Ward seems agreeable if the money is OK.
If Froch wants the fight in the UK the money will have to be a little better than OK, in my opinion.
how about this guy against Froch. He deserves a shot

Ward- not sure Carl will be able to beat him wherever they fight but he isnt going to get any better so he has to try and avenge that defeat sooner rather than later
As stated above, Froch has nothing to gain fighting Hopkins. If he beat Hopkins, people would say he beat a 48 year old man and only Hopkins would have something to gain out of the fight.
I think a rematch with Ward is the best option for him. He avenged one defeat last night, why not try and avenge the other, although I think Ward would beat him, in fact, Ward beats Froch 10 times out of 10.
