    Ward will want a steady comeback in September, not Froch right away probably. Bika v Periban for vacant WBC in June.

    Froch v Bika for WBC, WBA IBF later in the year. A sure-fire entertaining fight and puts more pressure on Ward to come to UK.

    You know I thought that but really thinking about it, its not a bad idea. Another unification, he'll be cheap, Froch will be favourite, should be a fun fight. Couple those reasons with reasons why Groves, Ward and Hopkins fights might not come off then its not a bad shout.
     
  4. I think degale is on the verge of a wbc shot

    I'd stay the **** away from Bika personally.

    He's got very little name value and isn't really the kind of opponent Froch will look good against.

    He's probably the stronger man, and is a dirty *******/spoiler to boot.

    Froch would win a close affair on points, and wake up with a seriously sore head in the morning.

    Bika is a nightmare. He is worse than Chilemba.

    Show me one fighter that has ever looked good fighting Bika?

    Besides this, assuming Bika gets the title he will want to milk it for a couple fights before he meets someone elite.

    Wouldnt be interested in this, Froch only has say 3 fights left, **** wasting it on Sakio Bika just so he can say hes picked up another belt.

    No interest in this at all.

    Would like to see Groves fight him though.

    Maybe he'll wait for Dec for Ward's second comeback fight, but if he wants earlier then Ward might be out of the question.

    Surely won't be Groves yet as he needs to win an eliminator or see if he can get Stieglitz straight away for WBO.

    Really don't see who else would add more then the WBC titleholder, whoever it may be. A better fight then anyone apart from Ward I believe.

    That would be a smart fight for froch. Bika has been in with the best and froch will easily beat him regardless of looking good or not. Add the WBC and ward really has to come to the uk and fight him if he stays at SMW or at least make concessions on the purse. I think bika would want easy defences first though as has been said, groves should go for Stieglitz the a unification against froch.

    Why fight Bika? You shouldn't fight him unless you have to. Stieglitz is far easier option if he wants another strap.

    I can see Froch's comment now..

    "Yeah, there probably is better opponents out there for me but it gives me a chance to unify three of the world titles which has always been something I've wanted to do and if a rematch with Ward happens, I'll have more cards on the table to gamble with"
