I'd love Froch to take a fight in Vegas later on in the year cus I need an excuse to go to Vegas with the lads!!
Do you think as many Brits that followed Hatton to Vegas would follow Froch? I'm thinking he's getting to that stage now.

Arum doesn't really need them because all of the sudden the Chinese Market seems sexy as hell to him now. Not to mention the Chinese loooooove to gamble, I mean Macau is far bigger than Vegas when it comes to gambling revenue.
Gambling+corruption+Arum+= Profit.
Hatton was a phenom for that, Calzaghe drew over 55,000 to Cardiff milenium stadium, over 3 times as many that went to Froch v Kessler but even he didnt have as many travelling fans as Hatton, no where near in fact!
About Calzaghe v Hopkins...
BBC NEWS | UK | Wales | Viva Las Vegas for Calzaghe fans
"The build-up of Welsh rugby jerseys and proud beer paunches around town is slowly proceeding, but local taxi driver Jorge was surprised not to see more.
"For Ricky Hatton v Floyd Mayweather, the English [sic] were here all week, partying and drinking beer - it was crazy," said Jorge, who claims to have seen hundreds of big fights in his 40 years in Vegas. But where have they been this week? They weren't here. I think this fight will build Calzaghe's profile, maybe raise him up to the level of Hatton. That's my opinion of his standing, but as a boxer... yeah, he's good. Joe will win this one."
