Promoters of Arthur Abraham and Carl Froch exchanged views on the threshold of the Super Six World Boxing Classic scheduled for November 27.
“Right now this is the calm before the storm. Coverage in Finland has been tremendous. Arthur and all of us are touched by the Finnish fans who are rooting for him. Arthur’s training camp has been the camp of his life. This is the fight of his life. He will reclaim the title in his second division,” said Kalle Sauerland, Abraham’s promoter.
Promoter Wilfried Sauerland commented: “I’ve been promoting boxing for more than 30 years and I can’t remember the last time I was this excited. I don’t like to make predictions but I’m very confident Arthur will win the belt Saturday night. From what I heard from his trainers he is in the shape of his life and may even have a few surprises that will test how versatile Froch is.”
According to Mick Hennessey, Froch’s promoter, this is a sensational fight between two fantastic warriors with big punching power. “Froch is here to claim what is rightfully his, the prestigious WBC belt. I’ve said it before and I truly believe it, he is the best super middleweight in the world,” he said, fightnews.com reported.
