    Yep, that's the reason.

    Boxers don't have real lives. They always retire because they're "shook" of the next guy coming up.

    "Shook" Froch will retire with a HOF career. Golovkin is only 4 years younger than him and has a Hall of Shame career

      "Froch clearly fears no man" except:

      - 50 year old Hopkins
      - dirrel rematch
      - degale
      - kovalev
      - Stevenson
      - ward rematch
      - golovkin
      - Kessler rubber match

        Both your favourites fighters got embarrassed in their last fights. Trolling is all you have left.

        Tell me moar about how clinching is bad but Hopkins is your favourite fighter

              Stop trying to troll, you always get absolutely annihilated. You've literally turned into one of the biggest jokes on here.

              I should stop slapping you around, you obviously take it personally.

                Froch said right from the beginning when this fight was mentioned that he wants no art of GGG. But it is time for Froch to decide if hes retiring or not.

                  Damn there's some trippin going on here...Definitely the spin zone

                  Froch is an effin warrior man, he gives all he has. If someone's a boxing fan, who wouldn't be entertained by that? And I know some people hate it but I find his British smack talk pretty funny.

                  Here's what I think is going on with Carl. I think the dude doesn't want to quit. Period. He probably feels fresh as hell as he hasn't been beat up. He just packed a massive stadium and made a boat load of money. I think his desire is likely as strong as ever.

                  But I think he's thinking hard about what's in front of him. He probably knows, or should know, that a GGG fight is no joke. He could seriously lose that fight. He could also win it.

                  But if he moves forward, can he beat GGG and will that surpass his career pinnacle (Groves 2)? I'm not totally convinced he can and I'm pretty sure it won't.

                  My guess is he retires...But I won't bash him either way, he's man'd up more than most boxers have

                    Why would Froch, a man with a HOF career who earned £9m for his last fight need to "stay newsworthy" by mentioning a fighter with a piss poor resume who's only just cracked a million dollars?

                    Froch has only ever responded to Team GGG's constant and desperate pleas to give them a a payday. If Froch decides to whistle, they'll come running. Until then, GGG will wait like a "Good Boy"


                    Well, according to some on here, Froch is 'scared' and 'ducking' GGG.

                      I dont think GGG wants the fight anyway, first it was we would fight anyone from 154-168, then it was 160. Froch fights at 168 and he owes no one anything.. Even if he continues fighting he doesn't have to fight GGG.
