Eddie Hearn: 'Carl Froch could retire'

Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn says that Carl Froch may well retire soon.

Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn has said that he thinks there is a "strong possibility" that Carl Froch will retire.

Froch's last fight was a knockout victory against George Groves over a year ago and that will have been the final fight of his career if he is to retire.

"I've spoken to Gennady Golovkin's manager Tom Loeffler and Carl still hasn't decided if he's fighting again yet," Hearn told ESPN. "If he does fight again, there's a very good chance it will be against Golovkin but at the moment there's nothing.

"I think now there's a strong possibility he will retire. People are saying he has to hurry up and make his mind up, but he will make up his mind when he wants to.

"There's also the possibility of a big domestic fight against James DeGale for a world title to consider, but my gut feeling is that he will not fight again."

Froch has won 33 out of 35 fights and knocked his opponent out 24 times.
