Fight Nerd correspondent Syl Peterkin spoke with Executive Vice President and General Manager of Showtime Sports, Ken Hershman (who he accidentally called Herschfield at the start of the interview) at the Super Six World Boxing Classic Final press conference in New York on Tuesday. We spoke about the upcoming match between Andre Ward and Carl Froch, where after a two-year, grueling journey, the winner of this high stakes matchup will claim both world championship belts, the vacant The Ring magazine championship and the inaugural Super Six World Boxing Classic Cup, which will take place on October 29 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. We also discussed the future of Strikeforce and M-1 Global on Showtime, as well as his thoughts on the UFC deal with Fox Networks.
