    Ward is fighting at home in a tournament where everyone else isn't.

    Ward draws 4000 people lol

    There is a reason why Hopkins even in the rematch wants to have it in Montreal, they sell out the Bell Center while America's biggest starts are lucky to get 5k or 6k.

    Bute wants o fight at MSG and Vegas

    Who can believe anything Kessler says.
    He showed up at a press conference pulling out of the super 6 due to what he claims were dizzy spells,then jumped into his bmw and drove away.
    I guess those dizzy spells can't be all that bad if you are fit enough to drive.

    You're right. His coach said the same thing between rounds!

    The Bell Center capacity is more than 21 000. That looked like 12 000.

    Did Froch improve during these 5 years? Of course. Did Magee improve? Of course.

    Froch has improved alot more, hence Magee has still been fighting at the same level he was then while Froch has moved on and has been fighting at a much higher level, 5 years is a long time you know....

    Was McGee winning on points tonight? NO. Was he winning on points against Froch? NO but they were probably even ....

    If a thing of choice. I personally think that Bute will win against Froch, but that is not a fact....you can think otherwise

    The judges had Bute ahead by 8 and 9 points. I personally gave 2 rounds to Magee + the 2 first KD = 8 points. Froch was leading his fight by 1 or 2 points.

    Anyway, apart from the Abraham fight, Froch's fight are often close. He finds a way to win though.
