Let's pull for the little guy is taking on new meaning after Carl Froch's gal pal dumped all over Arthur Abraham. Rachael Cordingley, a British model and Froch's girlfriend, said she wants a knockout when then the two fighters meet in Helsinki on Saturday.
"Carl's always confident and he knows he can bring the WBA championship belt back to its rightful place," Cordingley said. "Abraham is only a midget — Carl's going to dethrone the Midget King!"
Froch is 6-foot-1. Apparently, the 5-10 Abraham is sort of stumpy. His girlfriend isn't the one stepping in with the guy who's scored 25 knockouts in 32 fights, so Froch is showing shorty a little more respect.
"Abraham and I are fighting for a world title and we both believe we're going to win," Froch said. "Nothing will be left outside the ring and everything will be thrown inside it. I've got to stick and move — keep out of his way and out-box him. But you know what I'm like, there will come a stage when I decide to have a good old scrap on the cobbles instead!"
Froch and Abraham have already secured their spots in the Super Six semifinals. The WBA 168-pound strap is the motivator along with a chance to avoid tourney favorite Andre Ward until the finals.
