    Tired of this stuff from Froch. British boxing fans want to see this fight and he knows it.

    Only way he can get out of his mandatory is to unify, so if DeGale is too small time for him, he should go ahead and fight Ward or Dirrell.

      There's only one fight that matter at 168 and that's Froch vs Degale! If Froch ducks that would be a major disappointment and out of character. I suppose on the one hand Degale can take it as a compliment that Froch doubts his chances against him?

        I for one don't want to see the fight

        froch would be going backwards fighting degale

          He's not going to retire, so that leaves DeGale, Ward in Vegas or Dirrell in the UK if he's not going to vacate his title (which he says he refuses to do).

            Towards the end of 2012 Ward said in an an interview that he would consider coming to the UK to fight Froch and Eddie Hearn contacted him about doing so. Nothing came of it and Hearn never said why, just that it wasn't happening and they were moving on to other options.
            Ward has only fought once in the last 2 years and doesn't seem to want to fight anybody anymore. No matter how loud Froch shouts, Andre clearly isn't coming to the Uk to fight him.

                  Froch's dream: to face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Las Vegas...
                  ... Jr. should take that fight because he has good chances to win...
                  ... I also don't think that Froch might be able to get whatever other bigger motivation after the Wembley fight against the ugly kid.

                      I agree but it would certainly help Froch's case were he to say that he would like to have another crack to secure his much talked of legacy.I don't think that Eddie ever saw this rematch as good sense for Carl......only a thought.
