I'm a former world champion, I've been retired for over a decade, but I'm ready to beat John and Tommy Fury on the same night
Carl Froch has been retired for 12 years but that still hasn't prevented the Nottingham man from being linked to big fights.
Since becoming an outspoken pundit on the sport through his own YouTube channel, Froch’s brutal honesty has focused on many of boxing’s big names and that includes members of the Fury family.

Despite Tyson Fury reigning as a heavyweight champion in the past, Froch hasn’t held back when discussing Tyson’s shortcomings in losses to Oleksandr Usyk and also in the build-up to his likely fight against Anthony Joshua later this year.
Froch’s comments have not gone unnoticed and when he was at an event to publicise Fury’s fight with Arslanbek Makhmudov earlier this year, the elder Fury went on the rampage when Froch was working alongside Lennox Lewis.
These spats have continued and with Misfits Boxing now playing a prominent role in boxing for fights such as this, Froch against either John or Tommy Fury could be possible.
Despite conceding plenty of weight to the pair, Froch has insisted he would be ready to fight the two Fury’s on the same night
“I would have a little two-on-one, but with Tommy’s age, size and activity, having them both in there at the same time would put me at quite a big disadvantage. I totally think I could beat him and his dad on the same night, but one after the other,” said Froch when speaking to BetPack.
“I’d warm up on Big John, probably get him out of there in a round or two, and then set about Tommy. Tommy can’t go the distance with me. It’s impossible. He’s not good enough. Even though I’m old, people don’t understand the art of pugilism and the skill level and ability needed to compete with an experienced professional.
“Tommy Fury is a raw novice in boxing terms. He nearly lost to Jake Paul, for f—s sake. He can’t live with me. Easy work for the Cobra. I’d take both of them out on the same night.”
