Tip of the Hat to All-He-Does-Is-Win Ward
“I take off my hat to Andre Ward. This is the only time that I have bet against him, never again will I bet against SOG at super middleweight or light heavyweight. Chad Dawson has all of the physical tools, but doesn't have the “it” factor. He is very good, but far from great. On the other hand, Ward hasn't lost a fight since he was 12 and deserves to be at the top of the “pound 4 pound” charts because of his activity and quality of opposition that he has faced during the past 3 years. Chad might not ever be the same after this fight! Ward should move up to light heavyweight because there isn't anything left for him to accomplish in the super middleweight division.”—Shoulder Roll Defense offers heavy props to Andre Ward following Saturday win over Chad Dawson

YOU GUYS ROCK
Another stellar year from our Forum crew, the best in this known universe. Results for Reader of the Year are still being tabulated. In a moment of weakness, I hired CJ Ross to help with the computation and, well, it didn’t go well. Happy New Year to the best and brightest amateur scribes! –Editor Mike

(MGM) Grand Illusions
“Boxing is full of optical illusions. And I give Money May MAD props for doing a mix of Houdini and Marlin The Magician. Wow! Money May fought a club-fighting-like humbug in “The Cali Ghost.” And a hyped-up B fighter in Canelo. The promotions were grand to get eyeballs and easy impressionable minds behind those PPV screens. Because the live gates didn’t sell out.” –Radam isn’t sold on this being the year of Money May

War Torn But Still Dangerous
“It must be said that even a wounded, war torn Martinez is still a more dangerous threat than Canelo for Cotto. The powers that be must be expecting a phenomenal turnout.” —Brown Sugar says that Martinez is a tougher out for Cotto than Canelo
