Super-middleweight world champion Carl Froch reveals that he would be willing to fight Andre Ward in Las Vegas.

Super-middleweight world champion Carl Froch has admitted that he would be willing to fight Andre Ward in Las Vegas.

The IBF and WBA title holder had earlier stated that a rematch with the American would have to take place in the United Kingdom.

The 35-year-old, who avenged his only other defeat against Mikkel Kessler last weekend, has now said that a fight in Las Vegas could be an option.

"If the fight wasn't going to happen and someone said it could happen in Las Vegas, then I'd definitely say 'yes, let's do it'," said Froch. "I know it's the United States but let's get it on.

"Las Vegas is a kind of neutral venue because it is its own state of Nevada. They have got their own commissioner.

"I've always wanted to fight in Las Vegas, in the glitz and the glamour, and have my name up in lights. That is one thing I've not had in my career."

Froch also admitted that fight with Ward probably wouldn't take place until next year, and that it could even be his last fight.
