    Froch vs Chavez Jr is one of the best match ups that can be made and if it doesn't I wouldn't mind seeing Froch retire.

Golovkin the one fight HIS fans want.
      Golovkin doesn't fight at SMW. Also, Chavez Jr>Roy Jones's shell.

        No one wants to see Froch vs Chavez Jr - that's a garbage opponent, Froch, I don't know anyone in the world who wants to see that fight!

        Fight Degale and be real like you usually are!

        On the other hand, I guess Froch does deserve a stay busy fight against a garbage opponent so for that reason I could understand cherrypicking Chavez Jr, but as long as you fight Degale afterwards then I can give it a pass!

            I'm not sure there is much buzz for a Degale fight here in the UK to be honest. I think the general consensus is that Froch has earned the right to go out on a big payday/fight and that only really points to Chavez Jr.

            Degale is a good fighter don't get me wrong and would be a difficult fight for anyone. IF Froch can't get motivated for him then I can understand that. If he retires then all the best to him, he has had an amazing career.

              I fucking do. Degale beats him and it's the best way for him to get recognition. Hearn should be push for the fight as Froch has no value to him now that he intends to retire.

                Who wants to watch DeGale stink out the joint? He'd be running all night. Froch-Chavez please, it would be an epic war.

                  lol I agree that Chavez is hardly career defining, Froch already has Kessler, Bute and co but it would be a huge payday and at this stage, that's all Froch wants. A personal dream of a big Vegas PPV. I can't hold that against him. But I'd rather see Froch v DeGale

                    Quit already Carl. Capped off a great career with the Groves KO in front of 80k in your national stadium. No need to be reaching for Chavez. Thats not even a huge fight, especially since he wants to do it in Vegas. Julio has Bob Arum problems anyways so stop wasting our time trying to make it happen
