If there was ever a fight where it was next to impossible to pick the winner because of the immense talent between the two fighters, it’s the Super Six tournament fight between once beaten Andre Dirrell (19-1, 13 KO’s) and World Boxing Council super middleweight champion Andre Ward (22-0, 13 KO’s), who will go at on September 25th at a still to be determined venue. Both Ward and Dirrell have talent that the other Super Six tournament fighters would just die for. Dirrell, 26, has blazed a trail in his short five year pro career, beating all of his opponents except for the one glaring loss on his record to Carl Froch. That fight occurred in Froch’s home city of Nottingham, England, and many people, including myself, saw the fight as a fairly lopsided win for Dirrell. However, losing fights in other’s home towns are part of boxing and something that likely never go away completely. The good thing is that the loss is behind Dirrell, and he’ll likely not have to deal with it again, since there’s a very good chance that Froch will be beaten in his next Super Six tournament fight against Arthur Abraham and eliminated from the tournament in that loss. http://www.boxingnews24.com/2010/07...perfect-match-up-in-the-super-six-tournament/
