Arum to Bunce: "Sturm in October, Froch in January is the plan"

[CFH]

isn't the Mora fight already signed and scheduled though?

It looks like they pretty much screwed Mora out of the fight in order to face Sturm.

ok, i mean i really wouldn't give Mora that much of a chance in winning but hell, waving a HUGE payday in the guys face then getting the boot for a Sturm fight (even though its a more significant fight), seems a bit harsh

I know. I'm one of the very few Mora fans and while I didn't think he had much of a shot versus Pavlik, I wanted to see him prove me wrong (like he did against Forrest) and collect a nice paycheck in the process. The contracts were all signed and then Pavlik pulls out, ostensibly because he cut his finger and got an infection. Although after Arum canceled the Mora fight, Pavlik came out and said he would've been fine to go on with it.
