By Scott Gilfoid: With two months to go before the semifinal fight between WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch and challenger Glen Johnson, the fight still hasn’t found a venue. It’s rumored to be taking place in the United States, but where in the U.S is the big question.

Froch, naturally, wants the fight to take place in his native England, in Nottingham. Johnson if flexible and doesn’t seem to care where it takes place as long as they fight. He might care a lot if he were to fight Froch in England and find himself on the losing end of a questionable decision.

This has already happened with another of Froch’s earlier Super Six tournament bouts against Andre Dirrell in a fight that Froch won by a questionable 12 round split decision. Froch rarely landed anything until the 5th when he began to foul, hold and hit and wrestle Dirrell.

In article at thisisnottingham.co.uk, Froch said “I’ve not heard anything definite yet. It’s getting a bit boring to be honest. I keep hearing this and that, but nothing concrete. The only thing I can say for definite is that I will beat Johnson.”

Froch is the favorite to win because he’s the younger fighter and has been looking good as of late. However, Johnson is much more experienced than Froch and is the better fighter on the inside. Johnson hits just as hard as Froch, but is capable of throwing a lot more punches than the British fighter.

Johnson could end up outworking Froch if he can get in close and stay near him the entire fight. Froch can punch power while on the outside but not on the inside. Froch is very vulnerable in close and loses much of his power when he’s forced to fight at close range.
