Boxing Results Roundup: Snooki Boxing's Debut, Frampton Knocks Out Hughes, Spinks Beats Powell
London, England Carl Frampton KO-7 Kris Hughes: Frampton (12-0, 8 KO) is all about calling out British super bantamweight champ Scott Quigg right now, but while Frampton looked good beating Hughes, Quigg is a whole other ball of wax.

Last Five Fights: Carl Froch and Mikkel Kessler
Usually we do this in reverse, but the Bad Left Hook full fight preview went up on Wednesday. This fight is incredibly interesting to me because of the fact that it matches one guy (Froch) who has continued to win, often against the odds, and one (Kessler) who may well be nearing an early end of...

Joe Calzaghe has decided to officially vacate the WBO super middleweight title, following a ten-year run and 21 title defenses. No matter what you might say about this defense or that, about fights that coulda been but weren't, Calzaghe's run with this belt was superb. I am fairly confident in...
