Froch wants Junior in Vegas.

Who does he want if Junior losses his upcoming fight?

Answer - He still wants Junior in Vegas. He doesn't want Ward , second Losses , to a guy who hasn't fought in over 2 years doesn't look good for his "Legacy"

I suppose I just see things different than most everyone. Thread after thread I argue why people should take tough fights and people argue why they shouldn't. What made me a fan of Froch wasn't that he won all fights, I think he clearly lost to Dirrell as well. What made me a fan was that he wanted the tough fights. But this ending run is a disappointment to me.

For the record I apply the tough fights thing to all.

I'm a Floyd fan(the fighter not the man) who desperately wanted to see him fight Winky when it was proposed.

I want to see GGG challenge Ward.

I want to see Froch challenge Ward.

I want to see Ward challenge GGG then Kovalev.

I want to see Kovalev vs Stephenson, Ward, then Beterbiev

If Floyd beats Pac I want to see him go out challenging for the MW title against GGG or Quillen

I have the guys I root for like anyone else but more than I want an outcome I want the fights. I could go on and on Frampton/Rigondeaux Quigg etcetera. Tough fights, make them all!!!

The tough fights up top even make the guys coming up more exciting because you imagine them matched against the top guys. Now as I watch a prospect I only think of how they will be maneuvered to make it look like they are great. The energy is drained from top to bottom when the hard fights aren't made up top.

Good post. I don't disagree with it other than we already saw Froch and Ward have a tough fight when they fought each other three years ago. And, as we saw then, Froch isn't a tough fight for Ward, even if Ward is for Froch.

So, while I get why you might want to see Froch take it, I don't understand why you would want to see Ward take it. I imagine that you must think that Ward would have a tough fight against Froch this time around, and I simply disagree. Styles make fights and Ward's style is wrong for Froch. I'll bet my signature Ward dominates Froch again.

If Junior beats up Fonfara, I actually like the idea of a Froch-Junior fight in Vegas. It'll be fun viewing for what it's worth.

If we're talking about tough fights for Ward, I'd prefer to see Dirrell against Ward. And above 168, I would like to see him against Kovalev, Stevenson and Beterbiev. I don't know if GGG has the size to trouble Ward because it took him longer than I would think to stop Murray and Murray is a large middleweight, but that's not to say that I don't think it's a fun fight.

Froch would like to avenge his loss and the only reason he would take it is because Ward has been out of action for so long and if it was in UK. The JCC junior fight is a csh cow for his pension but i do not think it will happen. Froch has few options that will excite him and beside Kessler, DeGale/Groves winner or GGG there is no big fight he would get out of bed for.

Is there some evidence to say froch doesn't want the fight?

He's injured right now isn't he?

I think there is some disagreement about venue Wembley or Nottingham but not 100% sure.

I have heard him say in the past that he doesn't want the fight, and that he'd probably lose.
But all the recent talk about Wembley and Nottingham has come from Eddie Hearn. I think Hearn wants to make one last bit of dough out of him, and Hearn is desperate to get a stadium PPV show sorted for the summer. He can't make Khan v Brook, nor Frampton v Quigg by the looks of it.
