Allan Green vs. Renan St Juste on November 3rd on Bute-Grachev card

Image: Allan Green vs. Renan St Juste on November 3rd on Bute-Grachev cardBy Allan Fox: 33-year-old former Super Six tournament contestant Allan Green (31-4, 21 KO’s) will be facing #13 WBC super middleweight contender Renan St Juste (23-3-1, 15 KO’s) in a scheduled 10 round bout at light heavyweight on the Lucian Bute vs. Denis Grachev card on November 3rd at the Bell Centre, in Montreal, Canada. This is really a do or die type fight for both Green and the 40-year-old St Juste.

Green’s once promising career has been nosediving downward since he was soundly beaten by WBA Super World middleweight champion Andre Ward by a 12 round unanimous decision two years ago in June 2010 in the Super Six tournament. Green attributed his loss to being weight drained and it sounded like a reasonable excuse at the time with him looking terribly weight-drained with his efforts to make the 168 lb super middleweight limit. Green followed that loss with an 8th round TKO defeat at the hands of 42-year-old Glen Johnson in the Super Six tourney.

Green: I’m fighting Kessler at 172, because he didn’t want to fight at 175

Image: Green: I'm fighting Kessler at 172, because he didn't want to fight at 175By Scott Gilfoid: It seems that former super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler didn’t want to fight the hard hitting American Allan Green at the full weight for tonight’s clash for the WBC Silver light heavyweight strap in Copenhagen, Denmark. Green is saying Kessler didn’t want to fight at the full weight, so he’s forced to lose weight in order to make the fight.
