Froch up for East Midlands Sports Personality of the Year
WBC World Super Middleweight Champion Carl Froch has been nominated for the BBC East Midlands Sports Personality of the Year award. The winner will be announced at the awards ceremony at Loughborough University on Thursday 3rd December in front of a sell out audience.
Froch is one of five nominees with the winner set to be decided by a public text vote. Voting opened at 6pm yesterday (Monday) and closes on Friday 27th November at 11pm.
“The Cobra” won the WBC Super Middleweight title with a thrilling win over Jean Pascal last December in Nottingham and has enjoyed an excellent 2009. In April he produced a stunning last round KO win over former undisputed Middleweight Champion Jermain Taylor on away soil in the U.S. The win led to Froch’s inclusion in the exciting new Super Six World Boxing Classic.
Froch opened his Super Six account in Nottingham last month by handing U.S. star Andre “The Matrix” Dirrell the first defeat of his career in front of a sold out Trent FM Arena.
2010 looks set to be another huge year for Froch as he looks to continue his Super Six campaign. Next up for the Nottingham man in the tournament is a showdown with Danish hero and former WBA Super Middleweight Champ Mikkel Kessler.
