Carl Froch not about to take his new opponent lightly

After he beat Robin Reid last November, the last thing on Carl Froch's mind was a six-month absence from the ring. But things seldom work out completely as they are planned. While Froch's progress in 2007 was held up by injuries, this year has been hindered by injuries to his would-be opponents.
Yesterday, Froch got another new opponent, when it was announced that he will now face Albert Rybacki of Poland at the Trent FM Arena, Nottingham, tomorrow. It is his fourth opponent in about a fortnight and that brings its own dangers.

Froch looking for a new opponent

Rumours circulating are that Carl Froch is searching for another opponent for his WBC super-middleweight eliminator on May 10 after Denis Inkin, the Germany-based Russian, pulled out of the bout for a second time.
Inkin pulled out of the original March 29 date in Nottingham with "an acute infection" and I understand that he has withdrawn again.
