    Of those rankings I would say the following are interesting and acceptable propositions:

    Larsen (he's fighting Kessler anyway)
    Murat
    Zuniga (isn't he fighting Bute?)
    Berrio
    Mundine
    Bika
    Ward
    Dirrell

    Plenty of good options there, ruling out Larsen and Zuniga. Berrio would be one hell of a tear up. Bika would give Carl all sorts of problems. Ward and Dirrell are highly touted, unbeaten US prospects.

    Rumor has it that Miranda is going to invade England to get to Froch!

    Miranda is risky business for Frochy.

    Guy can't defend himself for ****. Even Miranda's telegraphed, relatively slow bombs have a good chance of finding their target. And they are bombs.

    Miranda would be a good fight

    I'd take Froch's under rated jab and all round boxing skills to set up the openings to take him out in the later rounds though

    duke mckenzie made a good point when he said lacy. still a big draw but no danger unless he decides to fight with his heart and not his head
