    He's not a clown by any means, though of course Pavlik is the bigger name.

    He's a tall southpaw. Comes to fight? I want to see it.

    :lol:

    Sums up Froch if this is his 'soft' fight!

    Imagine what Oosthuizen would do to Manfredo

    I'd say he a tougher test than Pavlik at this stage of their careers. Pavlik does bring a name and a lot of exposure though so you would expect the Froch camp to go down that route. Oosthuizen is a good young fighter but it would be very premature to throw him to Froch now unless they are looking a pay day.

    I actually like this fight. Then the rematch with Bute and then the fight with Pavlik.

    Then Froch should retire with a rematch with ward if he is still a SMW.

    Kelly Pavlik is the much better fight.

    I dunno mate, Pavlik just looks incredibly flat these days still has a bit of power but not what it once was. Seems to be padding up a win streak to get a shot but he really doesn't deserve it. Oosthuizen wins over Johnson and Pryor Jnr (and that's saying something) has more weight over Kellys recent fights.
