He doesnt even need to give froch or kessler a rematch but he will because its the best money fights out there.

Ward would have beaten bute as well..prob not as easy as froch did but who cares! This is the man that has beaten froch and kessler already!

Ward strength is very decieving and he is alot stronger and tougher than people think he is.

Im a fan of froch but the smart move for him is to fight ward at the end of 2014...in the meantime he can fight bute, kessler and possibly dirrell.
I don't hate ward I respect him as a champion, he put on a hell of a performance against Froch. But I just don't understand why he has a problem with the Froch-Kessler rematch especially when he is injured himself. I think whoever does win between Froch-Kessler does deserve a rematch against Ward considering there isn't that much at 175 and Ward doesn't want to move up anyway. So it completely makes sense for a rematch.

Froch would do a lot better in a rematch against Ward especially if he can get Ward to come to the UK for the fight. But if the fight is in the states again I don't think Froch would have a chance really. I don't think the rematch should happen as late as 2014, Froch will be older by then and I think he wouldn't be as good as he is now if he leaves it that late.

Froch needs to fight Kessler, then Bute and then hopefully by then Ward is ready again. I don't see the point in Froch fighting Dirrell again, Dirrell hasn't done anything for ages and it wouldn't prove much. Froch has domestic options like Degale and Groves which would be massive here in the UK, but I doubt Froch wants to bother with the younger fighters this late in his career, but who knows what will happen. Bute said that he might want one more fight before Froch as well, i hope he does have that fight.
