Super Six World Boxing Classic winner and super middleweight number one, Andre Ward, out-punched and out-landed runner-up Carl Froch in the tournament final at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City on Saturday, December 17. The American won a one-sided battle… out-boxing the game, courageous Englishman and, when Froch adapted his tactics to fight inside, he again came off second best as Ward produced a pugilistic masterpiece wherever the contest was fought.
Ward felt Froch out in the opening round, whilst Carl tried to out-work Andre, but just couldn't land
An exchange of left fists, yet Carl's is blocked by Andre's right glove. He also receives a mouthful of leather
Ward's most reliable punch was the jab as he landed 42% (107 of 252)
There was no question who the winner was, Ward won a UD, yet the scores showed a tight fight (it wasn't)
Froch was gracious in defeat, admitting he was the inferior man. Ward told him: 'You'll be champ again'
