    How does that take any credit away you moron? Is Mayweather's victory any less impressive because Manny has mentioned retirement a few timee before? Wise up you absolute moron and idiot of the highest calibre.

    James Degale's got about as much chance as Tucker Pudwill of landing Froch's Final Fight

    It's either GG at Wembley in front of 80,000 people

    or its GGG at Wembley in front of 80,000 people

    Froch wouldnt dream of pulling a b1tch card. It's absolutely one of these two

    No, he's saying it's either Froch fights the one they call Triple G in-front of 80,000 at Wembley... or he retires (with his last fight being against Groves at Wembley in-front of 80,000, where he knocked him spark out.) Reading comprehension guys.

    Froch has been contemplating retirement since the Ward fight and while faded he is still one of the most exciting fighters in the sport and a top SMW. Moving up in weight and taking on Froch is still a challenge period!

    You are braindead if you dont give GGG credit for going up in weight and beat a REALLY good SMW in his first fight at the weight, just a hater.
    you probably only give GGG credit for beating Ward wont you ?
    Floyd retires next sep , if he loses in his last fight the winner shouldnt get any credit ? if pac retires tomorrow , Floyd shouldnt get credit for beating him ?
    some guys dont retire when they lose 5 in a raw , they retire when they can still keep going but wont .

    I think the fact that fight was even hinted as a possibility... that the warrior inside Froch was awaken, and I'd be shocked if he doesn't actively try and chase this fight down as a send-off. It's a win-win that personifies everything that was good about his career, where he always pushed himself and sought out great challenges.

    Beyond that, I think a motivated Froch wins this, and I think deep down he believes this, too.

    No :smoke to follow this line Rummy.

    Am i correct in thinking you are being serious in picking Froch to give GGG his first 0 ?

    Totally agree with all of that


    I find it too hard to call. Could see an ultra motivated Ultimate Warior Froch being too big too strong too tough too much.... but i have GGG down as potentially one of the Greatest middleweights of all time (just waiting for the backlash from that one) and if he is he'll give Carl a Hell of a Beeting

    I do worry for GGG though - Carl retires after this. GGG still has to continue. Carl's already ruined at least one great fighter
