to be fair, Froch has earnt the right to do what he wants, but I couldn't really give a fuck.
what baffles me is if Froch has to give up his title to fight Chavez , how is the fight gonna be worth any money? It's already pretty clear that Froch isn't that highly rated in the US, otherwise they would be begging him to fight guys over there.
I believe Froch when he says he can't get motivated for Degale, but I do think he rates himself and his "Legacy" way too high. it's a pretty shit division if someone like Chavez (who was found out at the rate below and only moved up because he can't dedicate himself enough.) can be seen as a top contender. Furthermore, the guy who EVERYBODY agrees is the best in the division is basically semi-retired.
Froch will fight Kessler in a meaningless "Masters" Circus type of fight which will be akin to Rocky 6!
btw, Kessler used to be my favourite fighter, but he's pissed me off as well lately, virtually begging Froch and Ward for a fight when he's not been in a ring for 18 months , and the last fight he had , he looked finished.
