Carl Froch has revealed that he has decided against retiring in favour of pursuing a fight with British rival James DeGale.
After failing to secure a big-money Las Vegas fight, Froch was expected to announce his retirement, but he is keen to meet DeGale before walking away from the sport.
"Retirement is always on my mind and I was hoping to make a decision this week actually, but it looks like I'm not going to be making that announcement," Froch told talkSPORT.
"I would love nothing more than to show the British people what I would do against someone like James DeGale.
"He's is the newly crowned IBF champion, he's got my old belt, and it would be nice to go out and say, 'yes, he's won the belt, but look what I can do against him.' I know what would happen in that fight. That's an easy fight for me. He's a bit of a novice pro."
Froch has not fought since knocking out George Groves at Wembley last year.
