Carl Froch Decision Jean Pacal in a War, New WBC Champ

[Ray*]

Best fight ive seen in a while, but if Froch he wouldnt have a chance against kessler, taylor, bhop and CALZAGHE.

He needs to shut up about fighting Calzaghe and fight other fighters around the division.

Still good fight, pascal had many chances to take this fight.

Why should he shut up about calzaghe??? This is boxing and he is the one taking punches to the head so he is entitle to call out who ever he wants to.

That win was as good as anything Kessler has done, you guys need to take of your rose tinted specs, losing to Calzaghe doesn't equal immortality.

The only decent win on Kesslers record is Andrade. I don't know if Froch would beat Kessler but he would not go down, and Kessler would only need to get hit once. Calzaghe rocked him a few times, and Calzaghe was an old guy.

I never saw Calzaghe hurt Kessler once with a head shot, to the body yes but.

Thats because Joe doesnt go for the head, He alway target the body and thats what he did against Kessler he target the body.

Joe throw flurries/combo to the head but not hard combos because of his fragile hands.

Kessler has defeated a string of champions. Check boxrec.

This is what happens when a slow fighter with an impeccable chin meets the speed and power of Mikkel Kessler. The finishing punch is one of the most beautiful that you'll ever see and the speed of the final combo is breathtaking.

Fair enough im just saying that Kessler was never hurt by a head shot.

Am more impress with Kessler win over anthony Mundine in australia with some injury, Beating dan Hausser isnt something to show off....

Because there are other fighters out there worth looking at instead of asking for calzaghe for ****ing 4 years. The fight was good last night but i think Froch performance was eh...ok but and i wonder what would he be like if he fought Kessler, taylor etc. Fair play to him for winning.

The thing that really stuck out was the slow pace - almost like at times the fight was being fought in slow motion. Both fighters looked like nerves had drained them early on.

Froch had a better range than Pascal - Carl had the distance spot on while Pascal would often fall short with a jab. Both took and landed tremendous shots - it is fair to say that they were both were far to easy to hit.

Froch I thought was looking tired at mid point and at times ragged while Pascal's output just faded - he didn't have the engine to throw volumes of punches while Carl seemingly got a second wind.

Superb action, drama and it was tense and explosive. The fight had everything and both proved there hearts and chins and the post fight interviews proved both men had class and dignity.

Superb fight and a rematch in the future would be great.
Froch definately won - no doubt about that - the early rounds were close but Froch won the last few in my book.
