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

'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.Comment

LOL.. I'm not from the UK so I don't give two craps about a "domestic rival". Froch is bowing out from facing GGG. Fair enough, no one should be forced into the ring if they don't want to be there, but this also ends any sort of foot to stand on from the Froch crowd. It's embarrassing.Comment

Nothing wrong with what Joe did but suggesting Froch is a hypocrite is laughable.Comment

It's embarrassing because Froch started trash talking GGG as if he was getting ready for a fight. But then Golovkin took him up on it and that sent Froch into a period of deep reflection where he seems to have decided that it would be better to retire than to get a serious beating. He would have looked much better if he had made this decision before the trash talk, he would have gone out like a warrior. Now? Not so much.Comment

“If I fight Golovkin, I will back up, take what he’s got, and beat him up.”Comment

How is that "trash talk". Froch is obviously confident he can win the fight but hes always shown Golovkin plenty of respect and admiration
You're just a sensitive little sissy who gets butthurt whenever anyone doesn't fellate Golovkin. You're 58 years old. Grow up popsComment

If anything that just hurt his retirement legacy a little bit. You don't just present yourself in the best shape of your life, call out the most dominant middleweight right now, say it is a walk in the park and then just retire. Pitiful but I'm not surprisedComment
