NEW YORK – Less than two weeks from one of the most important fights in the history of the super middleweight division, the trainers for world champions Andre Ward (World Boxing Association) and Carl Froch (World Boxing Council) are brimming with confidence as training camp begins to wind down. The eagerly awaited inaugural Super Six World Boxing Classic Final is slated for Saturday, Dec. 17, at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, N.J., live on SHOWTIME® (9 p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the West Coast).

Andre Ward's Family Stands Behind His Dedicated Craft

Carl Froch has received the seal of approval from former undisputed heavyweight champion 'Iron' Mike Tyson ahead of the Nottingham fighter's Super Six final clash with unbeaten American sensation Andre Ward.

World champions Miguel Cotto and Carl Froch trained side by side at the Trinity Gym, located in downtown Manhattan in New York City. Cotto was preparing for Saturday's defense of the WBA junior middleweight title against Antonio Margarito at New York's Madison Square Garden, while Froch is scheduled to stake his WBC super middleweight title against Andre Ward, the WBA's beltholder, in a unification clash on December 17th in Atlantic City.

WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch finished up some strong sparring with countryman Tony Bellew, and took a few photos to showcase his amazing physical condition. Froch states that he already weighs 168-pounds, the super middleweight limit. On December 17th at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, he faces WBA champion Andre Ward in the final round of the Super Six Boxing Classic.

WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch has no problem serving as the underdog on December 17th in Atlantic City. He faces WBA champion Andre Ward in the final round of Showtime's Super Six tournament at 168-pounds. Both championships will be at stake, along with the Super Six World Boxing Classic trophy. Froch (28-1, 20KO) is planning to make it a very rough fight for Ward (24-0, 13KO). The Nottingham boxer is not concerned with the bookies picking Ward, but he wants to prove them wrong. He respects Ward's ability as a boxer and doesn't underestimate the skills of the Olympic gold medal winner. However, Froch doesn't respect Ward's power or the fact that a lot of his fights take place at home - in Oakland, California.
