WBA Super Middleweight Champion Andre Ward is scheduled to fight again on May 14 at the Home Depot Center in Carson, according to his promoter, Dan Goossen.

The bout is a semifinal in Showtime's "Super Six" tournament and will feature Germany's Arthur Abraham as Ward's opponent.

Ward (23-0, 13 KOs) defeated Allan Green in June of last year. Abraham (32-2, 26 KOs) lost to Carl Froch in November, but was aided by two fighters dropping out of the tournament.

Ward, an Oakland native, is a 2004 Olympic gold medalist.
