    1) Summer 2014

    2) Stadium. It's caught the public's imagination now. And the MEN was sold out in 12 minutes odd. They NEED a stadium.

    3) Barker/Macklin, Quigg/Frampton.

    Think it has got to be instant rematch to much money for it not to be plus u have Froch age he is not getting any younger. Then lets just say they did have fights before they fought each other it would be very risky to put both men in 50/50 fights. If either of them lost the appeal would dwindle.

    just my take

    they don't need another fight, froch aint gonna get better, froch is froch now and hes pushing 37.

    After the first fight I can see a lot more money made and a bigger US channel picking it up.

    I think groves does what he did in first 6 and does not trade with froch and is smarter. he will have learned a lot and in time this would of taught him a lot.

    Stadium in the summer for extra revenue to make sure it happens, plus this time HBO will pick it up, so there's even more money being added to the pot. Let Froch chill out until the summer, with Groves topping a bill at the o2 against a decent fighter in February / March.

    From an event/tv point of view, a full stadium on a British summers night would be great but from a fan attending point of view I think stadiums are crap for boxing.

    I'd say late next year at the O2 so that Groves can feasibly win the WBO strap (could take two fights total). Ideal chief support would be Fury/Price (if they keep active and winning) to draw yet more casuals in. British title fights for Callum Smith and Luke Campbell would be a nice bonus.

    I'd pay for that no questions asked. I get the feeling that Groves might bide his time however and goad Froch for ages.

    Froch has to ask himself this: Is it better for me to retire now with my last win being a highly controversial decision or do I take the risk in a 50/50 fight from which there would be no way back from?

    Groves could also fight Ward remember- he'd be intolerable to Froch if he beat him.

    I would like the rematch to be immediate just because I want to see it ASAP.

    Immediate rematch for Carl would be good, the last thing he needs in his life is Kessler 3 before GG. In the same way a fight gap would be good for GG, a more worn down Froch and longer to do a psyche job on him.

    Open air stadium in the south somewhere (It will be interesting to see how Froch reacts to being booed by a large crowd)

    Undercard..as above.



    The LAST thing Froch needs is Kessler 3 before the GG fight.

    Stadium and lots of build up please this has really got The publics attention it would be massive. As for undercard brook vs alexander or who ever for a title? Quigg frampton?
    Khan vs pacman eliminator for floyd, not going to happen but that would be good?
    Crolla vs mitchell, fielding vs smith brit smw title. Jamie mcdonall for a title

    I doubt it's going to happen. Don't think Froch and Hearn are too big on it tbh.
