Once Ndou is officially named as the champion, it is anticipated that the IBF will order him to make a mandatory defense of his title in the next few months against the highest possible contender, which is number two ranked Demetrius Hopkins.

Providing Hopkins gets past Steve Forbes I presume.Quote:

One thing that can be said about Ndou, he doesn't duck anybody.
If they put Hopkins in front of him, he'll be there.
Im picking D-HOP by decision if it does come off.
One thing's for sure. With months to prepare for him. D-hop isn't gonna look that good...even if he wins.
I wouldn't count out Steve Forbes when he fights D Hop next month.
Escalante got ktfo by Pastranas, Joel Julio got humbled by Cosme Riveria, Duddy struggled past Campas........
Forbes is no joke, and if the size factor isn't too big an issue he could well throw a spanner in the works, I'll certainly be rooting for him!
True, I won't count out Forbes, but he may have had his last prime performance his last fight. He awoke his old self in the wrong fight.Quote:

N'dou will make it tough especially in the later rounds as the advantage of experience will kick in and he will make it a tougher fight.....
This is a very instersting fight D-Hop is capeble but Ndow is knowlegeble too much experience and I also think he is so hungry and pissed about people using him as a stepping stone.
Excellent, D-hop is the best contender apart from Castillo, and has more credibilty than Rabah, M'Baye, Torres, Arnoutis, N'dou as someone who has earned they're shot. I think he beats everyone on the underlined list.
