Froch is a good boxer, still undefeated and has yet to be put down (and that spans back to his amateur days also), the only down side to his success at the moment is that he has not thought anyone of a decent calibre. I think he will struggle against Taylor but if he win's it will prove that he is a good boxer, although all this talk of him wanting to fight Pavlik is a joke because that is a fight he is not ready for in my eyes.

I doubt Froch would have anything to fear after Pavlik's last outing.

Exactly, Pavlik is a natural middleweight and should stay there

It doesn't help that their personalities are so similar Apparently they've made up, and Senior claims Junior will be coming out of retirement. Although I doubt Floyd Jr. would want to give Roger the elbow just yet. Steve Bunce was saying on Setanta that there's been some fallout in the aftermath of the De La Hoya/Pacquiao fight. Freddy Roach reckons he could spot punctures in DLH's arms, citing they could only be made by intravenous drips or energy boosting injections. There's also been some news in the Phillippines claiming the weigh-in scales may have been tampered with. Apparently, Pacquiao was 146 on the morning of the weigh-in, yet weighed in at 142.

It doesn't make a difference which one he fights, he will got snotted. There is a difference betwen fighting the likes of Monte Barret who in all fairness looked unfit and overweight and did not want to throw a punch and then having what will be his second fight (unless he fights another nobody inbetween) at this weight against either of the best 2 fighters in that division. What puzzles me even more is how, after one fight, can you be ranked number 4 heavyweight in the world?
