  • Carl Froch Can Achieve Long-Overdue Worldwide Recognition If He Beat

    CARL FROCH CAN ACHIEVE LONG-OVERDUE WORLDWIDE RECOGNITION IF HE BEATS ARTHUR ABRAHAM IN WORLD TITLE FIGHT
    By Gareth A Davies in Helsinki

    Daily Telegraph

    Nottingham ring warrior Carl Froch will deserve widespread sporting
    recognition should he defeat Armenian ironman Arthur Abraham and
    regain the World Boxing Council super-middleweight title here in the
    early hours of Sunday morning.

    Title fight: Carl Froch will try to regain the World Boxing Council
    super-middleweight title when faces Armenian Arthur Abraham on Sunday

    Froch weighed in at 11st 13lbs, Abraham was 11st 13 and a half pounds.

    It was minus 10 degrees in Finland's capital on Friday, and the irony
    of a venue many miles from home has not been lost on the British
    fighter who has been "a nowhere man" in the struggle for exposure in
    the British television market.

    Two weeks ago, the British public witnessed the farce and gulf in
    class between the heavyweight world champion David Haye, and pretender
    Audley Harrison, in Manchester.

    Yet this is the real deal, a barnburner of a contest, pitching a
    very tough Armenian against a proud British fighter who refuses to
    give an inch, in a legitimate world title battle. It is potentially,
    or at least has the hallmarks, of the fight of the year.
