This past Saturday night in Helsinki, Finland, England's Carl Froch may have turned in a career-defining performance at the Hartwall Arena. There, Froch easily out-boxed Arthur Abraham over twelve one-sided rounds. Froch rebounds from April's decision loss to Denmark's Mikkel Kessler, and he became the No. 2 seed behind Andre Ward in the semifinals of Showtime's Super Six Super Middleweight World Boxing Classic.

Froch made the Abraham victory look easy, but he says the fight was far from easy.

"It was a hard fight, but I made it look easy because of the tactics that I applied. But it was hard to stay focused and to concentrate and to do what I had to do to win. I know that it looked to be easy, but that's because I made it look easy," Froch said.

"But it was hard to make it easy, if you know what I mean. I just wanted to remain disciplined and composed and to basically not go in recklessly for the finish. I'm really ecstatic that I was able to put this kind of performance on against an opponent like Arthur Abraham."

Froch is now scheduled to meet the No. 3 seed in the Super Six, Glen "Road Warrior" Johnson. He plans to use a few of the same tactics that he displayed against Abraham. Froch is going to shoot his jab all night, which he doesn't believe Johnson can avoid. If Johnson happens to get past the jab, Froch will push him back with the right hand.

"I'm going to do what I do best, and continue to do what I do best. That means that I'm going to continue to use that jab and box and move and keep out of the way. I don't think that Johnson can get past that jab, and if he does, then there's a right hand waiting for him. So, I'm just going to keep jabbing and double-up on the jab like I did against Arthur Abraham. I could have done 25 rounds at that pace," Froch said.

"That was an easy night's work for me, physically, and, basically, it was more of a mental game and a game of concentration of not trading and continuing to make adjustments and to box over the 12-round distance of the fight."
