WBA and IBF world super-middleweight boxing champion Carl Froch has ruled out a match with James DeGale, saying his fellow Briton is "not a big enough name".
Instead Froch has designs on meeting Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr. in Las Vegas.
At 37 years of age Froch is surely nearing the end of his fight career and he is looking to compete in the boxing capital of the world against the former WBC champion, who is the son of the legendary Julio Cesar Chavez. The move would mean Froch having to surrender his IBF belt as DeGale is the mandatory challenger.
"He has not beaten anyone to justify being in the ring with me," Froch commented. "He lost to George Groves. I flattened Groves and it would be even easier to flatten DeGale."
