I hope degale tells froch to ram it

imo although he has been "retired" he has been keeping himself similar to may weather and years ago sugar ray leonard where they are still training and keeping their bodies right. unlike fighters like say ricky hatton. so the time out wouldn't hurt froch as bad as fighters like hatton.

in truth carl doesnt have to worry about diminishing skills or reflexes and he will always have the iron will and strength that comes from training harder than his opponents do so imo he could easily come back and still be basically the same fight. if he has his hunger back.

 

True but DeGale has a style that (intangibles aside, like "does Chunky have the heart and stamina to withstand the Cobra's pressure?") that may have always bothered Froch, based on how the Dirrell and Ward fights went.

 

A quick question, if Calzaghe had decided to come back following Froch's win over Taylor, calling him out saying that he was still the real champion - how would Froch had looked if he'd have turned Calzaghe down in regards to finally getting the fight on?

Froch and Khan star's have not faded so much as to allow Brook and Degale to ignore them. They're not coming off of KO losses, trying to rebuild.

Degale holds Froch's old belt which he won by beating someone Carl has technically beaten (i'm not opening that whole dirrell/froch can of worms again). He has no reason to turn down a fight with an older, faded version of Froch unless he doesn't fancy the job. It's as simple as that really.

 

Froch is a warrior, but if he is retired he needs to stay retired. Tired of this so called retired fighters taking about comeback after a few months out.
