    Also, haven't you accused Haye of cherrypicking on multiple occassions for big money?

    What is Froch doing with Chavez?

    Get it?
    Haye has made a career of cherry picking.

    Froch has made a career of taking on the toughest fights possible.

    Worst. Comparison. Ever.

      How many fights did Haye cherrypick?

      Lay it on me.

        As long as Froch fights Groves in his next fight after Chavez it sounds fair and reasonable to me. Froch is doing this for himself and not the UK fans. Froch has to take a good fight when it is there. If he fights Groves first then the Chavez fight might not be there for him for some reason. However if Froch's next fight is with somebody other than Chavez or Groves then I think he is avoiding a rematch that is called for and that the boxing fans want to see.

              All the ones who said Groves was being ridiculous.

                there's nothing i can do for you if you think carl froch is some great puncher, or still in his prime [or that jermain taylor wasn't shot when he fought froch.]
                Taylor simply didn't have the stamina to go 12 rounds with an opponent like Froch at 168. Froch dominated the second half of that fight.

                  These threads are ridiculous. Always kiddie nitpicking arguments bumped by the OP. Mods should warn lacedup.

                    If this is true the IBF have a major boner for Groves. They gave him the fight when he wasn't the mandatory, I think he was like 4th or 5th on the list and now they're ordering a rematch.

                      Chavez jr would do big numbers, and at this point in his career Froch is probably trying to cash out. He has fought everybody let Grooves fight Kessler in the mean time and the winner can get Froch next.

                      Froch has more options right now Grooves should take the offer or just wait and fight someone else in the meantime.
