Carl Froch names next three opponents for Joshua Buatsi

Carl Froch names next three opponents for Joshua BuatsiDAZN

Joshua Buatsi maintained his unbeaten record on Saturday night after beating Poland's Pawel Stepien on points. 

Now fans are eager to see Buatsi push on and go head-to-head with some of the best British operators at 175lbs before pushing for a world title shot. 

Former world champion Carl Froch echoes these thoughts and wants Buatsi to face a former two-time world title challenger in his next fight. 

"I think Yarde vs Buatsi is a pay-per-view, for me. Yarde fears no one, his stock is very high and I think he’s the real deal. I like his style, his attitude. He’s not a massive puncher but I think he’s great," Forch told Sporting Post.

"For Buatsi it should be from Beterbiev, Smith or Yarde."

A fight between Buatsi and Yarde is one which would surely produce fireworks, but when asked for a prediction, Froch can only see one winner.

"I think Yarde is a tough fight for Buatsi, I’ve not seen enough of him at that level to say he beats Yarde. I think Yarde is the favourite and in my eyes he wins."
