Miranda means nothing at 168. The guy cant live with the best middleweights let alone the bigger guys. That doesnt say much for Green mind you. Ward is a decent talent but throwing him at Froch I think would be a bit premature. He might have a future but I think he needs another 3 fights or so before he goes for a belt if he is to fulfill his potential.
i would have liked to see him fight denis inkin seeing has they had a bit of history, its a pity he lost a points decision in his last fight...
I can't see Bute and his people having the balls to fight Froch especially outside of Canada. Bute is ****.
Quite simply, Bute is easily the most over-rated boxer currently operating at 168 but a decent name and another belt. Good fight for Froch if he can get it.
supposedly jesse brinkly wants a fight with him, why not take that up, nice easy first defence but also added publicity due to the contender, if he knocks him out early he will also get loads of respect to as he's only been ko'd twice, once early in his career and once in the 11th round.
I think if Carl fights another top tier SMW he's going to have problems. Kessler and Bute don't gas like Taylor did - Carl gets stopped by either of those two, IMO. Give him an exciting, respectable opponent like Bika or Andrade. If he beats them convincingly then he's got a claim for fighting Bute. If he beats Andrade well he's got a claim for Kessler. But either Bika or Andrade can beat Froch.
He should play on his Jewish heritage and get a following in NYC, which may lead to big paydays against people like Miranda.
