Far away from Blackpool, a glory night for Forest fan Froch

Last updated : 26 April 2009 By Forest
The Nottingham man produced a last-round knockout after trailing on points, to retain his WBC Super-Middleweight crown.

"What I did in the 12th, that was unbelievable," Froch said. "I showed a little composure. I got up and knocked him out in round 12. What more do you want?

"Coming into the last round, I was hoping my intuition was right and Jermain was tiring from dealing with my pressure.

"I came out here to make a statement on American soil and I believe I made it."

Fight fans can watch the action 'as live' on ITV4 at 8:30pm on Sunday with highlights on ITV1 at 11:15pm.
