Carl Froch Once Again Hits The Road in Search of Respect
By Jake Donovan - It might be Glen Johnson whom is often referred to as boxng’s ultimate road warrior, but if there’s a fighter over the past two years who is more deserving of the honor, it’s Carl Froch. The pride of Nottingham, England will fight in his fourth country in as many fights when he faces Johnson next Saturday at the Adrian Philips Ballroom in Atlantic City, New Jersey. It will also mark his first bout in the United States since his thrilling come-from-behind knockout of Jermain Taylor more than two years ago. He is now one win away from advancing to the finals and for the past year or so has rated no worse than in the Top Three amongst the best super middleweights. Yet it won’t be until the final bell of next weekend’s bout when Froch finally earns the long overdue respect from the boxing world. Why that remains the case is anybody’s guess. Perhaps it’s his fighting style, which is no-nonsense, dig deep and find a way to win, no matter whom against and how he gets the job done. It worked on the night he captured his first major belt, outpointing then-unbeaten Jean Pascal in their December 2008 thriller for a vacant super middleweight bout.
