Floyd Mayweather's Fighter Andre Dirrell Could Face Carl Froch or Arthur Abraham
Aug 17th 2012, 15:08

Floyd Mayweather is looking to put Andre Dirrell on a major fight card on Nov. 17 according to Dirrell himself.

The 28-year-old super middleweight is excited to be a part of Mayweather's new promotional company, TMT (The Money Team) and the interesting opportunities that await.

Two opportunities in particular involve high-profile rematches for Dirrell (20-1, 14 KO) that could each earn him a world title.

IBF world champ Carl Froch (29-2, 21 KO) recently lost his planned fall opponent due to a financial disagreement, and Arthur Abraham (34-3, 27 KO) has a WBO championship match on Aug. 25.

The power of Abraham is expected to overcome the skill of current WBO champ Robert Stieglitz (42-2, 23 KO).

Both men could be available for the Nov. 17 date and both men have a history with Dirrell that could be used to sell a rematch.

Here's a look at which fighter presents the more meaningful fight for Mayweather and Dirrell to make.
