Froch described the straight right that flattened his British rival Groves as the best of his career after he defended his International Boxing Federation (IBF) and World Boxing Association (WBA) super-middleweight titles.
Froch, 36, refused to identify a preferred opponent for his next – and possibly last – bout. Sakio Bika, Cameroon’s Australia-based World Boxing Council (WBC) champion, was also at the news conference to challenge Froch to a world title unification bout.
But Froch seemed to prefer the idea of fighting in the world’s fight capital rather than settling for another domestic dispute.
“That was one of the best nights of my career,” said Froch. “Whatever I do now in boxing I will be a happy man but that’s not saying I’m going to retire.”
“This evening [Saturday] will be hard to top, but there is one box that is not ticked and that is Las Vegas. I’ve never boxed there, never had my name up in light down the Las Vegas strip and before I retire it might be something I want to do.”
