    And you are correct.


    An honest Froch-hater scores it 7-5 in Froch's favor,

    I don't even think it's hard to score, either. But, to each his own. none the less, i hate froch and hate to admit this, but he impressed me tonight.

    Still though, he doesn't have the workrate to beat arthur in his next bout. ARthur will be able to shell whenever he wants, and punch whenever he wants. But i feel as though he won this fight.
    His isn't the only example.


    This was a CLOSE fight. Froch is officially much better than his extreme detractors on this site gave him credit for.

        Exactly what I was thinking at the final bell (I sensed the decision would go Kessler's way).

        Even in losing his title, he covered himself in Glory and will have gained more (real boxing) fans for the way he acquitted himself.

        Froch keeps proving people wrong. =D

          My location: Denmark

          I think Froch was very dangerous the entire fight. I feared a knockout punch from him all the time. Kessler was so wild and since he is not used to that I feared it could go wrong.

          I certainly have respect for Froch. Now that he has a loss he might become more humble, so that I can actually justify him as one of my favourite fighters. He is pretty cool when he is not trash talking.

          Kesslers defense was a bit lacking. he got hit with a lot of ****** punches. Max Kellerman used to say that Kessler does not get hit with anything ******. Well he did this time. Maybe because he is not used to fighting this way (less robotic and more varied). He also hit a lot of air which he does not usually do. He did good but I'm not sure that he will ever beat a fast slick fighter.

            Kessler hit a lot of air because according to Carl Froch:

            "If you watch my fights you'll know: I don't get hit"

                Froch put up a good fight and it was close. You could argue it being a draw or Froch edging it. There was alot of close rounds.

                I had Kessler winning 115-113 though.

                  Froch has a decent chin, but I think it has been overrated. He stays buzzed, and his knees nearly betrayed him in this fight. It was a sloppy fight, and even though Kessler won, he looked like **** doing it. Abraham will lay Froch out within 6 rounds.
