Carl Froch to make retirement decision next week

Former world champion Carl Froch will decide whether he is going to retire or not at an upcoming meeting.

British boxer Carl Froch has revealed that he will make a decision on his future next week.

The 37-year-old has not fought since he beat George Groves at Wembley 12 months ago and is considering retirement or one last fight.

He told Sky Sports News: "It's very close. You could literally take a coin out of your pocket, flip it call heads or tails, and there's your decision. I literally, hand on heart, do not know.

"I have got a meeting next week with Eddie Hearn and Rob McCracken – my coach since day one as a professional – and I am going to speak to Rachel – my partner – and I am going to make a decision based on facts and based on options that they are going to put in front of me.

"And as soon as I know that decision I am going to be making an announcement, probably in early June. I'll be letting everybody know what I am going to do, but I am happy to fight again if the options are right and I am quite happy to retire as well. I need to get the weight of the world off my shoulders and I owe it to the boxing fans."

Froch has a career record of 33-2, with his losses coming against Andre Ward and Mikkel Kessler.
