Am the only person who doesn't think this fight should even be happening?

I agree it will be entertaining but Ward and Froch are the the only two of the original Super Six to have survived and should be fighting in the final now.

Why put an obstacle in the way of that great fight?

Beacuse Froch has to fight Johnson and Ward an as yet unamed opponent there is a very good chance that the Ward Froch Super Six final might get derailed.

Stupid decision to even have this fight, but at least it will be entertaining.

Like most I expect Froch to win a tough but unanimous decision.

Beating Johnson who loses every time he steps up (albiet in close decisions) does nothing for Froch though. He shouldn't be fighting 40 year old men, he should be fighting Andre Ward.
