Froch actually boxed to a plan and used the jab throughout OMFG!
Although he did not get the decision i thought he looked a lot quicker, he fought a disciplined fight, although he did let a few of those silly uppercuts go, Kessler found it difficult land on him at times to LMAO, he would bob and roll and slip when Kessler tried to throw the left hook right hand, he also got behind the shoulder Mayweather esque.
Yet he probably would have had more success if he just went gung ho from beginning to end. He was punching straight through Kessler's guard and I'm sure his power bothered Mikkel.
With Froch it was workrate that was his undoing, but that said he wasn't going to win a decision in Denmark.
I scored the fight by one round to Kessler so in my opinion the right man won. But one judge had Froch five rounds behind, another had him four rounds behind!!!!! Almost unwinnable.........that fight was close, ridiculous scores.
Carl would have had to knock Kessler down a couple of times and win a couple of more rounds to have achieved victory tonight. The scoring was far too far in Kessler's favour.

Yeah there were a couple of rounds that could of swung his way because even though he was inactive at times when he did throw he was landing clean punches, and possibly harder.
After the first 4 rounds I was very confident of Froch coming on strong and stopping Kessler.
However, Froch just took the next 4 rounds off for some inexplicable reason. He came back strong at the end but it was too late and the early rounds were close.
You are right, as soon as Froch came forward with his punches and threw them straight he could really slap the Dane about.
FFFFFRRRRROOOOOCCCCCCHHHHH... hopefully he won't make the mistake again of starting too late. Like he did with Taylor.
He spent too much time at range imo, i always said getting inside was froch's key to victory.
Froch's inside work is horrendous. He just needed to press and let long shots go. When he did that he was catching Kessler well and doing some serious damage.
Froch's inside game is the worst I have ever seen.
