I really like Froch but I don't understand how he can't get motivated for a DeGale fight but he can get motivated to train for a fight against a shot fighter. He already beat him much more convincingly than Kessler did in the first fight which I actually had it at a draw.
I'm sick of the domestic fights too so is there anyone realistically that Froch can face in January that's not DeGale, Kessler or Chavez Jr?
I have no interest in a third bout.
The first one was a close battle, which I thought Froch edged. The second fight was not so close, some competitive rounds, but Froch was totally in charge.
Since then Kessler has been basically retired while Froch has added good wins; the 3rd fight isn't interesting or merited.
The first two fights weren't even that good. They get heavily overrated. Yes they were competitive and relatively entertaining but people act like they were Gatti-Ward or something.
I thought Froch won them both too.
The first fight was very good I thought. The second didn't do much for me at all. Kessler didn't even look that interested when he was asked about the trilogy post-fight.
Chavez Jr in Vegas is the fight for Froch, but what are the chances of Jr being ready for that anytime soon.

Domestic meaning they are both from England fighting in England. I know it was a world class fight well the 2nd one was.
I don't know who he should fight that's why I asked in the first post lol.
you obviously insinuated these "domestic matchs ups were wrong. It's not our fault 3 of the top 10 SMWs are British. Froch v DeGale is a legitimate match up and the best one that can be made for Froch at the weight. DeGale has done more in recent years at 168 than Kessler or Jr or lets be honest GGG too.
Of course, if GGG v Froch ever happened, it would be amazing as GGG may well be the leading MW on the planet but in terms of merit, no one deserves that Froch money more than JD.
Kessler isn't a fight I want but what do you mean you're sick of domestic fights? Groves is a top 10 SMW and yes the rivalry was "domestic" in terms of geography but it was a world class affair between two of the best, who just so happened to be from the UK. would you call Barrera/Morales a domestic affair? lol
And DeGale has earned his shot the hard way, whether you like him or not and is in my opinion the 5th or 6th best SMW on the planet. Who should Froch fight? he's beaten everyone else.
Chavez Jr is all that's left in terms of money but he hasn't proven a damn thing at the weight.

It'd be funny if Kessler beat him again, which is obviously possible, as all he'd have to do is tweak his performance. The 2nd fight was pretty boring though.
Pointless Rematch! Would be interested if Kessler was active after losing to Froch and picked up a big win or 2 to get back on track but he hasn't fought since the last Froch fight

Not really his career is essentially over to me, he is not going to go after Ward so he can never really be the champ again.
Still is a very good fighter who is highly proven and can sell so whatever he wants to do is cool with me, him fighting Kessler is perfectly fine with me nothing Earth shattering but it would still be a decent win.
It's not really a cash fight though. The 2nd fight didn't really do great numbers even when it was a fight many wanted to see.
I could be wrong. I thought it was his second highest payday to date. looking at his prospective fights I think it would pay the most or close to it (assuming a fight with Chavez Jr can't be made because of his contract situation).
Yes, it's a waste of time but Froch is looking to cash in.
