    I didn't vote but Sillakh is definately the guy to watch out for at Light Heavyweight.

    Sillakh.

    Bigger, faster, more skillful.

    Froch, overachieving as always, would make it a good fight. But it takes more than heart, eventually.

    Sillakh is a big LHW with a very long reach which is bad news for Froch who knows how to (awkwardly) use distance and his long arms as an advantage - at 168lbs. 175 however is a whole different story, he'd be at a disadvantage vs. Ismail who was very impressive vs. B- level Despaigne and will continue to improve. Say 3-4 more fights and I think he'll be ready to take on Carl and use his speed, mobility, power and accuracy to get an UD. The only thing missing to predict P4P future is head movement, he should get into that. But he'll pick up a title easily.

    Froch decision (maybe a knockout I dont know about Sillakh's chin) at the moment. But in 3 or so years Sillakh will be better. Sillakh is one of, if not the most underrated prospect in boxing today.

    Froch by UD. Froch's big fight experience toughness and will would serve him well here.
