Eddie Hearn : "Looks Like Carl Froch Hangs Up The Gloves & Retires"

[HeroBando]

Avoiding someone is what Santa Cruz and the likes do. Blatantly going out of the way to avoid a specific fighter to fight lesser opposition.

Carl Froch is set to retire. According to people around him he went to start training again and left after 5 minutes to go back to his family. If his heart is no longer in boxing, why on earth would he come back? It's a sure fire way to fail.

Who has Golovkin beat to worry Carl Froch? Honestly, people need to get a grip on this nonsense.

Those comments are 6 months old at least, and really speak for themselves. Just shows Froch himself doesnt see it as a stroll in the park, unlike that poster. And also sheds light on Gggs resume, if a guy like Froch would rather swerve him

If your heart isn't in it, don't continue.

Froch has had a great career; a real overachiever.

Froch is doing a worse version of what he cried about Calzaghe doing. Funnily enough, he would've lost to both GGG and Joe C., badly.

What, so he has to stay around and keep fighting everyone that calls him out? Perhaps he should keep fighting until the grave, then.

Jesus.

[hugh grant]

Of course its his choice if he wants to retire, just like it was JCs.
But I think even Froch would have preferred to know when he is fighting he can say this is my last fight for sure. That way his fans can celebrate the last fight they will see him in. For instance he could have said the Groves fight is his last fight before he signed the contract and went onto to ko Groves.

Similar to Floyd saying his next fight is his last fight, but we know it isn't. His last fight is a rematch with Pac at the very least.

No, he doesn't have to but he owes Joe C an apology, and his nuthuggers can get off the back of GGG since he can't even get a normally willing Froch to face him, even in his own backyard. Yikes...

'Normally willing' is the key here.

He's no longer in his normal position. He's lost the competitive fire, he turns 38 in a few weeks, he hasn't fought in over a year, he has given up his belts....He's going to retire.

Calzaghe refused to fight his domestic rival to retire. George Groves was Carl Froch's equivalent, Froch fought him, and beat him, twice before retiring. It's not the same situation.

I didnt think you would have to type all of this to get that through. Joe C was fighting others who were not good enough rather than fight his domestic rival, Eubank fought Joe C and gave him his chance at a bigger name, Joe C didnt do the same shame, like you said Froch fought his domestic rival in Groves not once but twice.................So case close, his heart is not in it please retire gracefully.

id rather froch not fight if his heart isnt 100% in it,
i can understand why he does and doest want to carry on,
the ball is in his court, he can do whatever he wants...

He complained about Calzaghe not fighting him as his mandatory.

Froch fought back-to-back mandatories against Groves

Ummm that was because Groves went to IBF and forced his hand. Froch was more than content on moving on.

Waiting for you to deflect by bringing in Khan.
