    What could he really do that would top that night at Wembley?

    Fight GGG for much less money than he got for Groves 2, probably at a smaller venue, to win and then get morons claim GGG was a blown up middleweight that hadn't fought anyone?

    He'll never throw a better punch than the one he landed on Groves on a huge stage/event. No better way to bow out... but he didn't half drag the **** out of it. If Chavez Jr hadn't got beat, we'd have seen Froch out again in Vegas... because he brings the $$$$$.

    Been in some great fights,made some great money and got out at the right time.

    Chavez Jr was only ever going to be his last fight good payday Stateside with only one outcome.No way would he fight DeGale,GGG at this point all about low risk,high reward.

    Chavez Jr

    Fair play to the man, done it the hard way. Deserves major respect. A warrior. Millions in the bank, beautiful family, scenes still intact. Time to enjoy life.

    He has a property portfolio of around 100. That alone is around £10,000 to £15,000 per WEEK for life as long as he holds on to them.

    He also knows the trade and is a pretty hand DIY man himself. His brother is a builder by trade as well. So he'll have plenty to keep himself busy with. He isn't flash with his money either. Usually you are flash when you have too much time on your hands but Carl seems to be busy all the time.


    So I don't think he is going broke any time soon either.

    Well done Carl. Show them how its done lad.

    Good luck to him. He is wealthy and achieved a lot and most likely just cant get up for a fight anymore. All those early
    Early Morning runs and putting your body through hell for two-three months i doubt he is
    Motivated anymore and who could blame him
    Enjoy your retirement
