Comments Thread For: Team Froch: Chavez Talks Ongoing, Hope it Happens

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Carl Froch's trainer Rob McCracken says there are ongoing talks about a fight with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr and believes negotiations are "moving in the right direction".

The Nottingham man intends to press ahead with plans to face the Mexican star in Las Vegas, despite being ordered to defend his IBF super-middleweight title against mandatory challenger James DeGale.

Chavez Jr's promoter Bob Arum recently raised doubts about the fight due to a contract dispute, but McCracken insists progress has been made and they are even discussing a possible date.

It would have to be Froch for obvious reasons.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to this fight and hope it gets signed soon. This is an all action bout with two fighters with huge fan bases. It's sure to be a barn burner for as long as it lasts.

Yeah but Froch wants the fight in Las Vegas. Do casual American fans even have a clue who Froch is?

I'm guessing Chavez will take home a greater share of the US PPV revenue whilst Froch will get the lion's share of the UK PPV.

Everyone stands to make a ****load of money from this fight which is why Arum wants to be involved.

Yes we do. Showtime Super Six helped that, but there is enough English folks out here as well.

Funny coincidence, my friend is the doppelganger to Carl Froch. They are so alike in physical appearance that I am pretty certain they share lineage.
