    Kessler v. Haussler, Bute v. Andrade, Froch v. Pascal, or Inkin?

    It is for the mandatory position of the WBC so he will fight the winner of Froch vs Pascal,that is if Taylor grows a pair and fights in the UK.A fight with Inkin would also be good

    He can fight for any of the other three belts anyway; he doesn't have to go the WBC route; anyone will accept a fight against the Taylor v. Lacy winner, so he can pick and choose.

    I'd like to see the winner (Taylor) fight the winner of Froch-Pascal, and Kessler to fight Bute if he beats Andrade, and if not then Kessler-Taylor.

    Ultimately that is the fight I want to see at the weight, but It would be best if Taylor had another fight except for Lacy at the weight before meeting Kessler.

    It would kinda be regarded as a duck from Taylor's part with seemingly not wanting to figth Froch in the first pace.I could not stand the Froch nuthuggers then,just imagine:dead :tired

    Well, technically, he would be Froch's mandatory challenger, yeah. And, usually, mandatory challengers do everything they can to get a title shot, but in this case, you couldn't argue he was ducking Froch if he went against a more proven and arguably better champ in Kessler or Bute/Andrade. What if the IBF and the WBA made Taylor the mandatory challenger for their organisations too, after he won against Lacy...what would you say then? This is why he wouldn't be ducking Froch if he went for another belt.

    If he would go after Kessler or Bute that would be nice,I would like to see him get another beating.But for some reason I'd like an Inkin figt too but the Froch fight has been talked too much,it must happen

    I voted the winner of Kessler vs. Haussler, but that's a bit deceiving as I can never see Taylor/Lacy squaring off against Haussler.

    I think Froch is still an unproven commodity and he'll need another win besides Pascal before he should be in contention IMO.

    A fight with Bute/Andrade could be a good one as well as a Kessler fight would. But I go with Kessler as he is the top dog in the division.

    Kessler and Bute (whom I'm assuming will get past Andrade) are a level above Lacy and Taylor so Froch (whom I'm assuming will get past Pascal) is the natural choice. Whoever wins that match would have the merit forr a shot at Kessler/Bute.
