Mikkel Kessler vs Andre Ward Boxing Fight November 21 2009Watch Mikkel Kessler vs Andre Ward Live Stream Fight Online and Results

SHOWTIME presents another highly anticipated Super Six World Boxing Classic matchup between WBA Champion Mikkel Kessler and U.S. Olympic gold medalist Andre Ward this Saturday night November 21, 2009 LIVE on SHOWTIME 10 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the west coast) from the Oracle Arena in Oakland, California. This will be the final Group stage 1 matchup for the Super Six World Boxing Classic. The matchup between World Boxing Association (WBA) super middleweight champion Kessler and Ward, the hometown, undefeated hero, is scheduled for 12 rounds and will be for Kessler’s WBA 168-pound title.

The two Europeans boxers – victorious over their American opponents in the first round of the Super Six World Boxing Classic – are predicting Mikkel “Viking Warrior” Kessler will beat Andre “S.O.G.” Ward in the final Group Stage 1 matchup this Saturday while One of the two Americans – Andre Dirrell – likes Ward while Jermain Taylor calls Saturday’s showdown a “toss-up.”

Many believe that the 30-year-old Kessler (42-1, 32 KOs), who is a two-time super middleweight champ, is the front runner to win the Super Six. He is a complete fighter who has power and boxing ability. His only loss in 43 pro fights was a decision to Joe Calzaghe, who may be the best 168 pound fighter in history. Kessler is 8-1 in title fights and just had a good title defense against Guzmyr Perdomo.

Ward (20-0, 13 KOs) has fashioned a solid 25-0 pro record. This 25-year-old, Oakland native has had a slow and steady build in his career. The consensus is that he is peaking just as the Super Six tournament is about to begin. That perception has many boxing pundits suggesting that Ward is the one to watch. He is a solid fighter with sound fundamentals and an excellent work ethic. His game is not about flash, it is about getting results. It’s about winning.

Kessler has an edge in power and experience, while Ward has youth and the hometown environment on his side. This boxing fight should be an entertaining conclusion to Group Stage 1 of the Super Six World Boxing Classic.

Fight Recap

Andre Ward claimed the WBA super middleweight title with an unanimous technical decision over Denmark’s Mikkel Kessler on Saturday.

Ward (21-0, 13 KOs) added his first world championship belt to his Olympic gold medal with an upset victory in his hometown.

Ward announced his arrival among the world’s elite boxers with a dominant victory over Kessler (42-2), the WBA champion for most of the past five years and the early favorite to win the Super Six super middleweight tournament.

A ringside physician stopped the fight midway through the 11th round after looking at a growing cut on Kessler’s face, which was caused by a head butt.

A fight is decided on the scorecards in a technical decision. Sweden’s Mikael Hook favored Ward 97-93, while South Africa’s Stanley Christodoulou and California’s Steve Morrow both scored it 98-92 for Ward. The Associated Press also had it for Ward 97-93.

“Right now, I’m dreaming,” Ward said after celebrating with his trainer, Virgil Hunter. “I can’t compare this to winning the gold medal, because it’s going to take a while for it all to sink in,” Ward said.

“Everyone said we got the bad draw, but we just beat the toughest guy.”

A crowd packed the lower bowl of Oracle Arena for Oakland’s first world title fight since 1967, and Ward didn’t disappoint.

Ward hasn’t lost a fight since early in his amateur career more than 10 years ago. He rolled through the Athens Olympics five years ago, including a quarterfinal victory over Russian world champion Evgeny Makarenko—the last fight in which he faced such long odds.
