SHOWTIME HAD ANDRE WARD WINNING BY TWO “CRIMINAL” SCORES

Atlantic City, NJ– Andre Ward, (168 lbs), Oakland, CA UD 12 Carl Froch, (167.5), Nottingham, United Kingdom. (World, WBA & WBC 168 lb titles) Ward (25-0, 13 KOs) wins in a rout against a confused looking Froch (28-2, 20 KOs) and the “Super Six Trophy” along with the titles.  Ward was simply the superior and far more busier and accurate fighter. Cards were an erroneous 115-113 twice and a correct 118-110. 

Kell Brook, (148), Yorkshire, United Kingdom TKO 5 Luis Galarza, (147.7), Antioch, TN. Brook (26-0, 18 KOs) abuses Galarza (17-3, 13 KOs) before stopping him at 1:38 of round five.
 
Bowie Tupou, (242), Los Angeles CA UD 10 Donnell Holmes, (226), Ivanhoe, NC. Tupou (22-1, 16 KOs) and Holmes (33-2-2, 29 KOs) suffered knockdowns and Holmes a cut in this entertaining bout. Tupou survives a scare by scores of 96-93 and 95-94 twice.
 
Thackerville, OK– Roberto Marroquin, (124), Dallas, TX UD 10 Carlos Valcarcel, (124.2), Miami, FL
