“Marcus McDonnell refereed the fight and the score was 116-113. This was my first 12-round fight, which went absolutely poorly until about the seventh round.
I thought I can’t get this guy. I attacked him with my best blows, and he just stood there. He was a tough guy from Ghana, solid as a rock, like a tree, a big oak tree. I beat him, but he just didn’t budge.
I was getting tired, I started to doubt myself, and he was getting stronger, and in the eighth round the coach told me: “Go at him.” When you finish the attack, repeat it again." I threw a double jab with my right hand after I had already attacked him, and he dropped to his knee. It was like in Rocky IV when he cut off Ivan Drago,” Froch was quoted as saying by DAZN.
