By Scott Gilfoid: The Super Six tournament semifinal clash between World Boxing Council (WBC) super middleweight champion Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KO’s) and 41-year-old Glen Johnson (51-14-2, 35 KO’s) will be taking place in either March or April next year, possibly in the United States. I’m not holding my breath on it taking place here, because Froch can likely make more money on this fight if he can find a large arena in his home city of Nottingham, England to put this fight in.
Froch vs. Johnson
Carl Froch: Destined for the Final
By Bradley Hastings: WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch looks well on the way to securing his place in the Super Six World Boxing Classic Tournament later next year following his impressive victory over former middleweight champion Arthur Abraham. Following his close defeat to the talented Mikkel Kessler, many pundits had Abraham as the favourite for their previous encounter, and claimed Froch would not only get knocked out, but his career would be all but over.
The British World Champions – 2010 Review, 2011 Preview
By James McFarlane: So, the major fights of the year from a British point of view are all in the books. It is fair to say 2010 is year that has been packed with a fair bit of drama, controversy, success, delight and progress. Very rarely has there been a dull moment and in this article I’ll be taking a look back at the key talking points from the four current British World Champions, Ricky Burns, Carl Froch, Amir Khan and David Haye.
Glen Johnson is going to pound Froch
By Scott Gilfoid: It pains me to say this but WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KO’s) is going to take a royal beating in his next Super Six tournament semi-final bout against 41-year-old Glen Johnson (51-14-2, 35 KO’s) next year. With this loss, Froch is going to be drummed out of the tournament and will have to go back to jolly old England, lick his wounds and figure out what he’s going to do with his career.
Froch will lose to Glen Johnson
By Scott Gilfoid: WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KO’s) was able to win his last Super Six tournament bout against Arthur Abraham to recapture his World Boxing Council super middleweight title in the stage 3 part of the Super Six tournament in Helsinki, Finland. Froch, 33, right now has become cocky with his win over Abraham and sees himself having no problems in the semifinals against 41-year-old Glen Johnson (51-14-2, 35 KO’s), and that’s going to be Froch’s undoing. It’s sad when a fighter gets cocky after one win.
Froch doesn’t think Ward has a signifcant win on his resume, doesn’t give him credit for Kessler win
By Scott Gilfoid: WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KO’s) doesn’t want to give the talented American WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward for being the best super middleweight in the world after his outstanding 12 round decision win over Sakio Bika last weekend. For some reason, Froch doesn’t think that Ward has any significant wins on his entire resume, despite Ward having beaten Mikkel Kessler, a fighter that Froch was beaten by last April. Froch thinks he actually won the fight, and seems to be totally immune to the comments from neutral boxing fans on the internet. If Froch would just open his eyes and face the truth, he’d get a dose of reality from these fans about his loss to Kessler.
Froch says he has his “Sights set on Ward”
By Scott Gilfoid: Without even having fought his next Super Six tournament opponent Glen Johnson, newly crowned WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KO’s) is already looking past Johnson towards a fight against World Boxing Association (WBA) super middleweight champion Andre Ward on the finals of the Super Six tournament next year.
Froch faces Glen Johnson next: Can Carl dominate the 41-year-old?
By Jason Kim: WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (27-1, 20 KO’s) won an impressive 12 round unanimous decision over Arthur Abraham (31-2, 25 KO’s) last Saturday night at the Hartwall Arena, in Helsinki, Finland. With the win, Froch re-captured his WBC title which he had lost in his last fight in the Super Six tournament against Mikkel Kessler. Now with the best back in his possession, Froch moves into the semifinals of the Super Six tournament against 41-year-old Glen Johnson (51-14-2, 35 KO’s) in a fight that will be taking place in the United States at a still to be determined location.
