Who's next for Froch then?

[Tam Seddon]

Im just reading sky sports and Eddie Hearn really wants Froch to face Kessler at the Nottingham city stadium. I think Kessler should come to Nottingham considering that Froch went to Denmark to fight him. The rematch will be a great fight that I think Carl deserves after putting on some great performances. Hearn also mentioned Bute, that fight IMO would be a lot more competitive than a Ward, however I would prefer Ward - Bute first.

I think 168 weight class needs Ward - Bute to fight each other and Froch and Kessler fight again. I wouldn't mind Kessler - Bute as well.

There's still a lot of big match ups that can happen, the 168 weight class is very strong.

I was haing a think... What would you rekon Froch up at Light heavey?

Tam Seddon - my condolences on the loss last night. As we knew he would, your man gave it his all. Nothing to be ashamed of.

My thought has always been that Ward would win and then Froch would fight Bute. Ward has been through the gauntlet for the last two years and he deserves one "easier" fight. He also has a mandatory to deal with in the name of Anthony Dirrell. Beating Anthony would do well to build up a fight with his brother Andre. Froch lost of a bit of leverage by losing because he doesn't have belt and is coming off a loss. Bute and Froch is a major fight and would be relatively even going into it. It's Froch's biggest money-making fight available by far. A win over Bute puts Froch into a great position for unifying with Kessler in the Fall in a HUGE matchup in Britain. Kessler is out of commission until early Fall because he has a mid-April fight with Stieglitz. Ward seems to think Bute hasn't earned a fight with him yet, which may be true. If Bute beat Froch, a fight with Ward next would make a lot of sense. It will all depend on Froch. Maybe Froch wants an easy fight first because his confidence was shaken last night and he's earned it or if he thinks Kessler is an easier fight than Bute so it makes sense to take an easy fight and then face Kessler in the Fall. Bute could be left out in the cold again if Ward takes his mandatory and Froch goes back to Britain and then faces Kessler.

IMO Bute wrecks Froch, his style is just all wrong for Froch, but Carl could rematch Kessler, call out Pavlik for a $ fight, or move up and rematch Pascal

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

I think Froch has the mentality for a fight with Dawson, could be interesting. Also a fight with Cloud would be FIREWORKS!

That is exactly what I think will happen. However, I could see Froch option to fight Kesler at him instead, because it will obviously be a much more favourable environment and he'll get more money.

I agree with ElTerrible too, Bute is a horrid style match-up for Froch. I'll be cheering for him, but I think he would get stopped. It would be fun while it lasted though, because Bute does get hit.

Froch is just too small for Cloud. He'd be overwhelmed in that fight.

Ha, yeah should of asterixed in ''while it lasted''.

[erics44]

Id like to see froch bute because i think froch would win the fight and be right back in the mix

I also think froc would beat kessler quite clearly this time

But soemone said ward needs a break, if anyone needs a break and/or a fight at home its froch

[Dark Lord Al]

Froch could go to LHW , but he will never be top man at 168 he is to one paced.

[Dropanuke]

Froch vs Abraham again? Could froch get Stieglitz before Kessler gets to him?? Possibly Miranda as a bounce back?

[Master]

Froch will have to travel to Canada to fight Bute otherwise move to light heavy and rematch Pascal.

A Rematch with Kessler was the first thing that came to my head when I read the thread title. Bute's style is all wrong for Froch.

[Mctaggert]

I agree with the majority of people who say he should rematch Kessler, if he cant get that I think he should move up in weight and fight Cleverly. As it would be a good money making fight and its the easiest way he has of getting another title.

I feel sorry for Carl but he has nothing to be ashamed of, he's fought the best and his heart has made up for his lack of skill compared to many that he has faced. We should be proud of Carl in the UK and as he gave it his all like we knew he would. Unlike Haye the big chicken!

[Dropanuke]

Why can't froch fight Stieglitz?? If Kessler is injured then froch could take that belt
