\"\"<\/a>\u201cI did enough to win without taking too many risks,\u201d said WBC super middleweight champion\/Super Six finalist Carl Froch after his win over Glen Johnson in from of 2,286 at the Adrian Phillips Ballroom at Atlantic City\u2019s Boardwalk Hall. Johnson stated, \u201cI will just go home and put more effort into it and see what I can bring next time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carl Froch, WBC Super Middleweight Champion\/Super Six Finalist: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone is finally starting to acknowledge what I\u2019ve done in successive fights. I wasn\u2019t 100% happy with my performance, because I\u2019m the kind of guy who likes to unload my shots. I didn\u2019t do that enough tonight, but I did enough to win. Johnson is a big, strong light heavyweight and he can hang in with everyone. He is a proud, strong man. He was fading towards the end because I was hitting him. It was a professional performance tonight, which I\u2019m proud of. I did enough to win without taking too many risks. I\u2019m going to stay on the ball. I will have a little bit of a rest, and I\u2019ll go back and see my baby boy Rocco. But, I will stay straight and stay fit. You always learn in every fight. Tonight I solidified that I can box on my last foot and give Ward problems doing that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eddie Hearn, Froch\u2019s Promoter:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cCarl deserves the utmost respect from everyone in the world. He is a real fighter. We don\u2019t have enough people like Carl Froch in boxing. We\u2019re going to build his fight with Andre Ward for what it is: a unification fight between the two best super middleweights in the world. I don\u2019t think there has been anyone who has fought, successively, so many top opponents. Carl is just a fighter.\u201d<\/p>\n

Glen Johnson: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMy team has done a wonderful job with my career every since I teamed up with them. We have come up on the short end of the stick sometimes, and they have never given up on me. For me, I will just go home and put more effort into it and see what I can bring next time. It was a close fight. There was a lot of give and take. He hit me with some solid, clean shots. Carl can fight. He is tough. We look forward to seeing a great fight between the two men who have made it to the finals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lou DiBella, Johnson\u2019s Co-Promoter: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIf you don\u2019t love Glen Johnson then you don\u2019t love boxing. It is an honor and privilege to be his promoter and to be his friend. You never get less than 100% from Glen Johnson. Everyone on this team respects the heck out of Carl Froch. If Andre Ward thinks he will have an easy night, he is very wrong. It was a very close fight going into the seventh or eighth round. Glen tried to take him out with one punch and Carl adjusted.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leon Margules, Johnson\u2019s Co-Promoter: <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cPeople who came here tonight saw a spectacular fight between two great warriors and champions. Anyone who saw the fight and knows boxing can appreciate the kind of battle Glen and Carl had. For a 42 year old athlete to fight twelve hard rounds like that is a spectacular feat. I\u2019m not disappointed in Glen\u2019s performance; I\u2019m only disappointed in the result.\u201d<\/p>\n
