The ONLY American that could possibly be bigger than Froch is Hopkins (seeing as Ward ruled himself out). Where did Hearn say this?

The reason Froch-Bute wont happen is the rematch deal. If Bute beats Froch he's not leaving Canada in a million years to rematch him in England. That's just nonsense.

Eff Bute.

It's a virtual cert that Froch will have an overdue homecoming fight in Nottingham then get the Kessler-Stieglitz winner, which can also be made in England, for a "world" title. This gives Froch TWO primetime fights on Sky at home.
