    Froch-Chavez is off before it's even been made. A phoney elbow injury has been given as the reason they couldn't get it signed.

    Froch should just retire on top.

    I can't stand Froch but with Ward out for 14 months I'd say he isn't currently an active boxer. Until Wards boxes again Froch is number 1.

    Nothing left to prove should only fight in Vegas against Chavez or GGG if not retire very happy, would hate to see him unmotivated and lose to a Degale.

    froch and hearn will be parting ways.

    a manager has a duty to perform in the fighter's interests, not his own.

    to ensure paperwork is completed, legal remarks are consulted and everything being put in order.

    hopefully they can sort it out, but unlikely.

    He's injured apparently. Not sure if that means he can hang on to that IBF belt for now.

    and solidly the best active 1.

    with an elbow injury robbing him of his chance to fulfil his last boxing ambition he might as well turn it in.

    eddie has sky contract and sky and therfore eddie gave him the platform.

    The man barely was known outside of boxing I mean this is a world champion who could not get on tv lol do people forget the first kessler fight was screened on primetime ffs

    Nah. Ward has not retired, so therefore he is number 1.

    The IBF are taking their time stripping him. James DeGale should've had his title shot lined up by now, surely!

    he also hasn't fought, at least as important as not retiring.

    In that case where do you rank Naseem Hamed? He hasn't retired either.

    I agree with Dragon for a change.

    Wembley has already been booked for Froch's next PPV fight.

    It's a shame for DeGale- he's been hanging around for a title shot since last Summer. Dirrell is no pushover either.
