Carl Froch Vs Andre Ward Weigh-In
Carl Froch and Andre Ward will fight it out tomorrow night to see who is crowned the Super Six Tournament winner. Not only is the Super Six cup on the line, but also the Ring Magazine Belt, the WBA, and the WBC Super Middleweight titles are on the line. This fight really is too close to call. Both boxers have world class skills and this tournament alone has proved that. Froch and Ward are very different fighters though. Froch does have good boxing skills but prefers to have a toe to toe war, where as Andre Ward prefers to box but can mix it up if he needs to. Andre Ward is the superior boxer but Carl Froch does have more power and more experience at world level on the professional boxing stage.
There has been a lot of talk from both Froch and Ward, most of it has been about each others power. Froch has been saying that Ward is going to get knocked out because he can't take the power he possesses. Froch has also been saying that Ward can't knock him out because he has no power. I believe that this talk has gotten under Wards skin and he's sick of hearing people, specially Carl Froch say he's got no power. I think Andre Ward is going for the knockout on Saturday night, and with his excellent boxing ability and fast hands I think he's got a good change of getting a stoppage. Even if Froch is not so much hurt but just overwhelmed. Ward wants to prove to Froch, and everyone else, that he does have some pop in his punches.
Whoever wins this fight not only gets all the titles and wins the tournament, but will also be considered as the best super middleweight in the world.
As tough as Froch is, I'm going for Andre Ward by knockout. May the best man win.

Lamont Peterson Beats Amir Khan
Lamont Peterson Beats Amir Khan
This was an excellent, all action fight. However, as close as it was, I thought Peterson did do enough to secure the win. He was pushing the action in a lot of the rounds and a big percentage of the meaningful punches were coming from Peterson. I think Khan has shown a weakness in this fight, and that is when he's put under pressure he has a hard time. Khan needs distance to be successful, without that distance he struggles with his inside game, which is close to non-existent.
Khan was disrespectful after the fight blaming the referee and also saying that Peterson was given the fight because it was his hometown etc, but the truth is Khan was warned for pushing and even had a point taken away, but he still continued to push. He only has himself to blame. Saying that, credit to both fighters, they left it all in the ring and yes, it was a close fight, but I think the right man got the decision. No doubt there will be a rematch.
Was watching this review video of the fight and I tend to agree with him.
