Andre Ward’s The Sunshine in a Cloudy 2011 Forecast
By Lyle Fitzsimmons - Yep… it seemed like a good idea at the time. When the last page of the 2010 calendar was X’ed out 12 months ago, it was a stroke of temporary brilliance to eschew the traditional year-end column for a crystal-ball forecast of what my colleagues and I would be contentiously recapping when it came time to repeat the exercise 365 days later.

Robert Guerrero: Ward-Froch Scorecard Was Ridiculous
Former champion Robert "The Ghost" Guerrero, now known as the prediction king, continued his streak of picking winners with last Saturday's super middleweight fight between Andre Ward and Carl Froch at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Ward won a twelve round unanimous decision to unify the WBA/WBC titles and claimed the Super Six cup. Guerrero picked Ward by way of a dominating performance.
