Comments Thread For: Froch Says DeGale Possible, But Eyes Chavez in Vegas

Or maybe you have that with Froch ;-)

I like both guys. I have no reason to be biased toward either one. Both are my two favourite active fighters. Or less active, if we're talking Kessler.

You can say that if you want but the general consensus is that the first fight was close, could have gone either way and the second fight wasn't. I'm not going just by my view (which is obviously right).

The fact that you like both guys means you're trying to make the second fight seem closer than it actually was in order to sell the idea of a third. Kessler was well beaten the second time.

Well maybe to you it is, I feel the closeness of the first fight has been exaggerated over time. As I said, most people at pressrow incl guys like Jeff Powell and Tris Dixon had it the same way I had it, I believe.

Anyhoo, yeah I would like to see a third fight because I like both guys. Not going to deny that. But would I also like to see a decider between the fighters, not the ones I like but for the way they fight? Absolutely. It makes sense. Why would I campaign for Froch to fight a guy who has a boring and negative style to me? I don't know.

We're talking about Froch-Kessler not Castillo-Corrales. If anything has been exaggerated over time, it's the stature of those fights. They weren't even that good.

I don't want to see a third Kessler fight.

I want to see Chavez Jr then retirement. That's it really.

I've always felt the same. Great fight, but Kessler won, I thought that was clear. About as clear as Froch won the rematch, certainly close but there's no doubt who won.

I wouldn't be satisfied unless he at least tried to avenge the Ward defeat.

Not that I'm demanding or anything, but I REALLY want to see Froch and Golovkin fight.

[FlatLine]

Chavez is a mismatch there's no point fighting him, Froch is a whole other level..

The only fight which makes sense is vs Degale!!

I just can't see that happening though.

Great fight, I'd love to see it.

But Froch is at the end of a hard career, he's only got 1 or 2 fights left.

After a great career I'd rather him just have a big event with Chavez and ride off into the sunset as one of the best this country has produced.
