Froch's next fight

[Kirkland Laing]

Ward wants the fight, he even had a go at Hopkins last night saying "I see what Hopkins is trying to do" in regard to trying to steal the next Froch fight.

End of the day Froch has 2 belts.

He should walk into the room slam the belts on the table, his home town, and less than 50% split, and tell Ward take it or leave it.

Wards not gonna find a better fight, not many people enjoy watching him, plus 40% of a Froch fight would be more than 80% of any other fight he'll get.

Froch should bully Ward and if ward says no, fight Hopkins.

Hearn will start negotiations with Ward and Hopkins at the same time. He probably will start at offering both guys 40%. A lot depends on how many PPV sales last night did. The more it did, the keener Ward/Hopkins will be to make a deal and the easier it'll be to make a deal.

Ward isn't coming to England. He was talking about filling Wembley stadium. So that tells you how much money he wants, fantasy stuff. Plus during his HBO comms he mentioned home advantage about a billion times.

Virgil Hunter called it a draw so they are already trying to downplay Froch's value. Ward always looks like he is about to burst out crying but I thought Hunter might not have been so petulant.

I would like to see Ward man up and head to England but I doubt that would happen. I think him and Dawson could be interesting. You know for shits and giggles why not Chavez Junior in England I bet it would sell out and be a decent payday for both.

The fighter with the biggest name makes more money. Ward is not widely known. Hopkins is which means a ton of money. At 35 he's not going to be on top forever. He needs fat pay days sooner rather than later. After that I would fight Bute in Canada then Kessler. By this time Ward would be on T.V. more and more making name for himself.
