    Both are looking for big name dance partners.

    Stephenson was Froch's mandatory at the time of Kessler II.

    Stephenson would be acceptable in Vegas. Stephenson needs a name in the Spring as Kovalov appetiser.

    Catch weight say 170-172 for Stephenson's belt

    if the chavez fight can't be made, i was suggesting this too, he'll be technically the lineal champion if he wins, which will go in the record books (despite kov clearly being the best at 175)

    wish he took the fight in December, which would of been better than stephensons last fight, and would probably of netted him more $$$ too.

    I said before that this would be the most fitting way for Froch to finish off an excellent career.

    This fight makes to much sense to even be considered unfortunately in the crazy world of boxing.

    Great fight but Stevenson wins. It'd be brutal.

    Stevenson puts froch to sleep, but I wouldn't be surprised if froch got him down early.

    Well Froch would have to use his brain, and not his machismo, because stevenson has dynamite in that left hand and speed. But he only really has that, if froch got inside he'd hammer the plimp to sleep. Because stevenson is a long range fighter.

    Is actually fancy froch in this one, stay on the outside make the pimp move and jab him and work the body and stevenson will tire by midway and i think carl stops him late
