    Article's a bit vague but even if Froch boxes in the US they could do a split-site PPV :think.

    Would be great if it comes off but I seriously hope it's not Haye-Chagaev, Povetking I wouldn't mind. Even Warren says Haye-Povetkin would be a good fight :hey

    The only problem i see here is that Haye would take the majority of the PPV sales whilst Frochs fight is the one that actually brings the interest of the boxing fan at least

    Maybe because Haye is from London?

    There hasn't been any decent Boxing in London for a long time, and this is a great time.

    Manchester's had it's time.

    Haye doesn't deserve to share a bill with Froch.

    Get it up north, as close to Leeds as possible!

    North of England is the home of British boxing. Deal with it ;)

    Maybe it would get more casual fans to notice Froch. Stick in a couple of his epic interviews and surely they'll notce.

    Haye and Froch would easily sell out in t the O2.

    Give it back :-(

    Yep. Hopefully they wouldn't treat it as an actual undercard fight. Frochy should be heavily acknowledged at this stage of his Career.

    Just like the Khan - Murray fight, this won't happen.

    It would impossible to treat Froch-Johnson as an undercard fight.

    All semi-finals are in the U.S are they not?
