    I just feel because of Froch's style every fight more or less is going to be competetive to a degree so he may as well fight a Top Top guy. Though Andrade is not a bad pick in honesty and it will obviously serve as a decent prelude to Bute or Kessler!!!

    yeah i agree. you can't see Froch rolling through guys in 1 or 2 rounds anymore, whoever it is.

    at least with carl you know that this won't turn inot a cleverly style situation where after this fight he will move onto Bumalo from Acra or Uselesski from Latvia.

    Take this fight. Get back to winning ways. Go after Kessler. Lovely.

    I would love to see the Kessler fight and I think Carl would win a return, however I have had the impression over the last year that Froch would be a bit of a nightmare fore Bute. And there is the risk that if he fights Kessler first he won't have enough left for Bute.

    Largelly I think this is due to Froch Studying the opponent before wearing them down. I have no doubt that if Froch went in with a plum he would KO1

    I called this when the date was announced. It'd be entertaining but not really a difficult fight for Carl.

    Gonzalez would be ****.

    Not much else out there for Froch, Andrade is pretty much done but it should be entertaining while it lasts.

    Terrific fights...perfect homecoming fights. Carl deserves an easy night.

    Adios.

    Great fight IMO. One that Froch definitely deserves, and that's not something I'd normally say.

    Presumably a win will get Froch a "I'm world #1" tshirt from boxrec :think

    ouch.

    Wouldnt class Andrade as 'easy'. Especially considering its not a 'world title' fight.

    Not as easy as the dangerous Ghanain that did a runner against Burns or Tommy Karpency anyway.
