It's pretty shameful how he has no interest in fighting Ward, the guy who beat him and is the best guy in his weight division.

I thought he does want to, but says he probably won't win.

In Boxing weekly he said he will probably retire, I think Froch is running out of options.

He's going to fight De Gale. The only thing holding the fight up is De Gale agreeing to take the ver y short end of the purse.

If that is true, I don't blame Degale. He's the champion, why should he take the short end?
With every day that goes by, Froch is less marketable and less relevant. It'll end up that Degale v Groves will make more money than Degale v Froch.
FROCH IS RETIRED!

Froch gave the title away.

This is one of the better fights in boxing if it happens. Unfortunately, I doubt it does. It seems like a lot of posturing by Froch.

Yeah I generally like Froch's dickheadedness but I'm not impressed by this at all. It's embarrassing.

Yes he did. So he deserves the bigger end of the wedge? He gave up that advantage with the title.
He started making the big money with the Groves fights , and let's be fair that was down to Groves as much as was him. He was the Champ and took 80-85% . He can't have it both ways.

Shame for Carl, he's left it too late to find another big money fight. Boxing wise Degale GGG and Groves again offer interesting 50/50 fights, Ward always beats him. Happy retirement talking Jim Watt type bollox.
