Comments Thread For: Carl Froch vs. Mikkel Kessler Results From Denmark

What a fraud

There's no way Kessler did enough to win the title from Froch, close fight but this one was a done deal before it started, c'mon the scoring was a joke! Kessler was ready to go in the last round and was missing all night, I'm sure Allan Green will finish what Ward and Froch started... "HOMETOWN COOKING" AT IT'S VERY BEST...

That was the worst I have ever seen either of them fight. They both looked so tired and lathargic that I started to feel jetlagged! Going in to the second round they were fighting like they had just gone a long 15 rounds... neither of them had much pop, even those body shots from Kessler didn't seem too hard, and neither of them could capatilize on the others horrible mistakes. It was almost like watching it in slow-mo. After Kessler cut Frochs nose and had him a bit hurt I kept yelling "Go after him Mikkel!", but it was like he couldn't pull the trigger either tonight. If only they would have fought the entire fight like they did the 12th round. Even in the last round though, it was still painfully sloppy at best, but atleast they changed out of first gear. Oh well, glad to see Kessler back in it. I wonder how Froch will really take his first loss???

Side note: If Kessler and Froch fight their next fights like they did tonight, Green will certainly beat Kessler; and Abraham will definately destroy Froch.

i agree, the americans will present a lot of problems..

kessler has no agility and horrible footwork, he did well, but is no where near how good he was against calzaghe....

secondly, didnt froch and all his fans complain that dirrel ran???? first dirrel won that fight, secondly, froch ran for 2 mins of each round...he was always moving away sticking out a jab at times, always on that back foot, sure he jumped in from time to time and was aggressive at times, but seriously, he is highly flawed..

plus, he moved away and backed up the whole fight. he was ****in running the whole fight which is all he complained about with dirrel.

froch now has 2 losses

froch fought on the backfoot and was still in a war mate, dirrell runs like a petrified *****, you really cannot compare the two as runners! froch moves back, dirrell ****ing sprints! lmao... I think anybody can appreciate that war, best fight of the super six, kessler definatly deserved it, his straight rights to the body was very hurtful, trust me! froch will always be like a gatti, boxers like dirrell, well maybe not the running man, but a pure boxer will no doubt box his ears off, the same way gatti struggled with boxers, carl froch may have lost, but was not a loser in that fight, it was a great fight! pleased kessler is back on the map, and the cobra lost the title the same way he won it, in a WAR!

i kind of agree with this

on paper it looked like a great fight but once they were in there fighting i realized their styles didn't really match up as well as i thought they might

both fighters were swinging for the fences and missing alot of the time

best bit was the final 30 seconds where it looked like the war it was billed as

i was disapointed with the quality of skill in that fight i said to my mate at one stage it almost looks like they threw gloves on two guys that just wanted a scrap

counter punching in that fight was almost non existent

until i see allan green against ward i can't call it but so far i see either dirrell or ward wining this tournament they are by far the most skilled boxers in the tournament/ division

I actually thought that was the best Froch I have seen.

There is kesler haters and Froch haters. But kessler won that fight. Much of Froch punches went to the parades. you could see it in his eyes. He knew he diddnt win.

[-Hyperion-]

ugh i dont see how it was a close fight......and i dont see how 117-111 is so wide....primetime from commentary gave froch like 3 rounds clear and like 3 they gave a draw....and they were giving froch every benefit of the doubt some rounds they wouldnt even mention punches by kessler.......and they still had kessler winning..........

kessler was getting hit with a lot of ****** jabs because he always gets lax with his defense when he pressures, but he was outworking and outlanding froch in most of the rounds......


oh and kesslers punching technique has gone to ****.....

you can see it all in the post fight attitude........kessler and his team were sure they had won.....

froch and his trainer had that "oh ****, we lost" look.......

I thought Carl won, but I knew he wouldn't get the decsion. Saurland's the promoter, he makes Don King look like the poster boy for business ethics.
