That would be a fair solution. I see nothing wrong with that. But where? The US would be sound, but is a long way for the fans to go for a neutral venue. Might prove tricky to work out.

There will be tough negotiations, should be solved maybe away fighter gets bigger slice of the purse. With the WBC/WBA belts tied up in the tourney dont think neither can afford to think of pulling out, especially Froch at his age. Tournaments been a great success so far IMO

The belt lost sank away a lot of negotiation power away from Froch. IF there is the choice between a 5000 or a 10-15000 seaters, I think that it'll be a no brainer and business wise, as scary as Germany is for the results, it's the most viable option. If I was Fat Mick, I would say that I can negociate for Germany IF the 3 judges are all neutral (or at least not more than one from Germany) with a neutral referee in the ring. That would be my sine qua non condition. Not sure if the fatty can think and manage that though

Just read Fat Mick seems to think because Froch was the WBC Champ going in he has a contract that says he has two of his three fights at home. If that is the case it should be but I think he woudn't of been arsed if he had won last night but now it's a must win fight.

If that's the case, it's quite interesting and then he might be right. We should have the answer within a couple of weeks as they have to start working on that right now.
