    GYM, Adonis Stevenson's (Froch' mandatory) promoter, is working hard! They found some holes within the IBF rules and here's what came out of this :


    Ainsi, Froch et Kessler devront soumettre une nouvelle entente à la IBF d’ici le 29 janvier et se battre d’ici le 27 avril. Le gagnant aura ensuite l’obligation d’affronter Stevenson dans les 90 jours suivant sa victoire. Aucune clause de revanche ne pourra figurer au contrat. Si une des ces conditions n’étaient pas respectées, la ceinture deviendrait alors tout simplement vacante. Stevenson devrait ensuite s’entendre avec le meilleur autre aspirant disponible.

    Translation :

    Thus, Froch and Kessler must submit a new agreement to the IBF before January 29 and fight before April 27. The winner will then face Stevenson within 90 days after his victory. No rematch clause will be included in the contract. If any of these conditions were not met, the belt would then simply become vacant. Stevenson should then fight with the best available contender for the vacant belt.

    Whooo gives a flying ****? IMO it'd be better if they stripped Carl. That way the winner didnt have to waste time with Stevenson and could move on to Bute or Ward.

    The belts don't mean much here. We have a clear hierarchy at 168.

    Ward is #1
    Froch is fighting Kessler to maintain #2.

    Obviously, Kessler and Froch do care about the belt, otherwise they would have fought on May as planned.

    Hey quoi de neuf mon vieux! T'es sur le cas de GGG maintenant? lol :rasta

    J'ai hate de voir Froch-Kessler 2, content que ce soit devancé!

    That was kinda my point. Why all this work (trying hard to get the exemption, then changing the date and maybe even risking a HBO date) for the belt?

    Without the belt you lose leverage during negotiations.It is that simple.

    WBC already stripped Ward for his injury. WBA may follow suit so the Froch/Kessler winner would become the actual belt-holder.
