Froch wins back his belt
Carl Froch regained his WBC super-middleweight title as he dominated from start to finish to claim a unanimous points victory over Arthur Abraham in Helsinki.
Neither man was a clear favourite entering the fight as they both looked to respond to their first professional defeats in their previous outings, but Froch executed his fight plan perfectly which was reflected in the scores given by the judges of 119-109, 120-108 and 120-108.
The Briton lost his title to Mikkel Kessler in April, a decision Froch has constantly disputed, and on Saturday he was the only man in the fight with his power, variety and accurate punching foxing Abraham from the start as the Germany-based fighter showing little sense of urgency and more self-preservation.
