By Scott Gilfoid: WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch (28-1, 20 KO’s) struggled hard to beat 42-year-old Glen Johnson (51-15-2, 35 KO’s) last weekend in their Super Six tournament semifinals bout at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey. After eating right hands from Johnson all night long, Froch was able to win a 12 round majority decision. The win puts Froch in the finals of the Super Six tournament against the fighter pretty much destined to win the whole ball of wax WBA super middleweight champion Andre Ward (24-0, 13 KO’s).
Froch vs. Ward
Super Six: How will the final pan out?
By Mark Young: Andre Ward did the business and beat Arthur Abraham, Carl Froch delivered the goods and beat Glen Johnson and now both the winners enter the Super Six final. The tournament didn’t quite pan out as initially planned but two of the original entrants made the final and the final looks very interesting.
Fights that really must happen in 2011 – The ultimate card: Maidana-Brook, Haye-Klitschko, Froch-Ward, Pacquiao-Mayweather
By By Simon Hirst:
Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye
This fight for me would be the main event of the card. It’s the fight everyone wants in the division that needs it the most. In sport, you judge it by its top division and for boxing, that is the Heavyweight division. David Haye has been calling out the Klitschko brothers since knocking out Enzo Maccarinelli in 2008, doing anything to get their attention.
