American contender Andre Ward outboxed reigning WBA super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler last night at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, CA, winning the Showtime's Super Six tournament bout.
Kessler came forward early but couldn't find the target as Ward used excellent footwork to stay out of range while punishing the Dane with lightning quick left hooks and right hands.
Ward started to mix in the jab as Kessler got closer in the third but the fourth and fifth frames saw both men forced to shake off hard punches from the opponent. More...

There was a massive show at Sparkassen Arena in Kiel last night with three world title belts at risk.
The big winner was Zsolt Erdei who moved up a weight class to unseat reigning WBC cruiser champion Giacobbe Fragomeni by majority decision.
Hungarian Erdei had held the WBO light heavy belt for 11 successful defenses over five years but saw 40 year old Fragomeni as vulnerable despite the 25 pound weight differential.
Italy's Fragomeni won the WBO crown during a technical decision over Rudolf Kraj last year but was held to a draw by ex-IBF titlist Krzysztof Wlodarczyk in May in which iron-chinned Fragomeni was floored, a rare occurrence. More...

Last night at Casino Rama in Rama, Ontario, Marvin Sonsona and Alejandro Hernandez fought to a draw over the vacant WBO super flyweight title.
Filipino southpaw Sonsona had won the belt from Jose Lopez in September but lost it on the scales Friday when he was 2.5 pounds over the super fly weight limit.
Mexico City based Hernandez came into the clash with the experience of having faced perhaps Argentina's top fighter, undefeated WBO flyweight champion Omar Andres Narvaez, in a big hearted but failed title bid.
The seasoned Hernandez fought Sonsona, just 19 years of age, to a standstill over the course of 12 difficult rounds and forced a 115-113, 113-115 and 114-114 draw. More...

It was a big Saturday night in The Land of Silver with two good fight cards, one of which featured a world title bout.
That took place at Club Deportivo Libertad in Sunchales as one of the top light welters on the planet, Marcos Rene Maidana, was on his trademark brutal form.
The 26 year old retained his Interim WBA crown with a crushing rub-out of experienced Panamanian William Gonzalez, 22-6-1 (7), at 2:20 of the third round.
Maidana improves to 27-1 (26) and could meet the winner of the upcoming Amir Khan vs. Dmitriy Salita WBA title clash next month.
There was another devastating KO on the undercard as big punching lightweight Daniel Alberto Dorrego, 28-2 (20), gunned down previously undefeated Daniel Eduardo Brizuela, 17-1-1 (6), in the very first round. More...

Manny Pacquiao solidified his status as a modern day great this evening at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, NV by unseating reigning WBO welterweight champion Miguel Cotto via a 12th round stoppage.
The combatants both came out strong in the opening moments, trading leather with great gusto until Pacquiao broke things open with a full-blooded right hook that had Cotto on the floor in the third.
But the champion got up and went back to matching the challenger punch for punch. Pacquiao proved he could take the punishment handed out by a strong welterweight and fire back in return, canvassing Cotto again in the fourth.
The champion was shaken up this time but rejoined the fray, slugging it out with the quicker southpaw in the fifth and sixth frames.
Pacquiao began to pull clear in the seventh as Cotto could no longer hold the center of the ring and was getting beaten to the punch repeatedly. More...

England's David Haye pulled off a major upset last night at Arena Verischerung in Nuremberg, Germany, taking the WBA heavyweight title from Nicolai Valuev via majority decision.
It wasn't pretty or particularly entertaining but Haye delivered the kind of mature performance many thought him incapable of beforehand, simply outboxing the massive Russian in every round.
Much smaller and lighter than the 7'0, 316 pound champion, Haye proved to be nearly impossible for Valuev to hit and the former cruiserweight titlist used his quicker hands to counter well. More...

Yonnhy Perez made the most of his first world title fight by knocking off reigning IBF bantam titlist tonight at Treasure Island Casino in Las Vegas, NV.
The underdog coming into the challenge, Perez had previously pulled off an upset over Silence Mabuzza in South Africa earlier this year while Agbeko was coming off a stunning victory over heavily favored Vic Darchinyan.
The clash between Agbeko and Perez was expected to produce fireworks and the pair didn't disappoint as the artillery began to fly from the opening bell. More...

There are two good bills tonight south of the border with shows taking place in Veracruz and Tijuana.
At the Arena in Tijuana, IBF featherweight kingpin Cristobal Cruz, 39-11-1 (23), puts his title at risk against veteran Ricardo Castillo, 38-7 (25).
After an up and down career, Cruz has hit his stride over the past 18 months, winning the IBF and IBO crowns during a five bout win streak.
The 32 year old local man won the IBF trophy with a split decision against the very tough Orlando Salido a year ago and has since defended it in difficult defenses against Cyril Thomas and Jorge Solis.
Cruz's opponent tonight, Mexicali based Castillo, currently holds the NABF and Mexican titles on the strength of three victories this year and has two failed world title bids at super bantam under his belt. More...
