    Bika has a proper belt, unlike degale who's only got the 'all British fight' going for him and he can probably wind up froch enough in the build up to make it interesting, if not quite PPV and it wouldn't sell out a manchester/O2 arena unless the undercard was very good.

    Guess froch's other option I suppose is move up to light heavy and get a fight in the states. Or that rumour of golovkin at a catch weight is quite interesting

    Anyone seen the clip of Ritchie Woodhall interviewing DeGale after a fight when DeGale seems to think he is the WBC Champion?

    If it's the one I'm thinking of I don't think degale thought he was the WBC champ, just that he thought it would be enough to get a fight with froch when Woodall said that his silver belt means **** all

    I cant see Froch-Bika being on PPV as the public wont buy it. Froch has said he wont go up to 175 lbs. I don't know if he would fight GGG , but all i do know is it wont be at catch weight because Froch will only fight at SMW. Froch has not got many options, but how are the fans going to look at Froch if he chooses DeGale over Groves ?

    Don't agree froch has a great jab, if he fights a head first fighter like Kessler maybe any one else and his great jab gets exposed as nothing special.

    I like DeGale and would pick him to beat Groves in rematch and fancy him to win a world title before Geoves does. Style is all wrong for Froch though. Can get lazy, not enough output and pushed against the ropes very easily where Frocj would tee off on him. Froch would stop him early

    Yeah he suddenly became mandatory when he signed a 3 fight deal with Fast Car.

    Eddie has the same relationship that Allegedly has with the WBO.
