    Comments Thread For: Kessler: Froch Doesn't Fight Well Going Backwards

    HERNING, Denmark - Hometown superstar Mikkel Kessler turned in a gutsy and heroic performance—capped by a scintillating 12th round—to win a unanimous decision and register his first points in the groundbreaking SHOWTIME® Super Six World Boxing Classic, giving Carl Froch his first professional career loss at MCH Arena in Herning, Denmark on Saturday night.

    Kessler had Froch running backwards all night long! Cong**** to Kessler, he proved me wrong! He was able to hit Froch, when Froch was going backwards too because Froch is no defensive genius!

        I was very surprised Froch never decided to move forward and change the roles in that fight. When he let lose and there were exchanges, Froch almost always got the better of it. The problem was he tried to box too much, relying on throwing jabs.

            Who is going to be more motivated? AA who got his ass served by Dirrell or Froch who just lost a close fight probably because he either had a crappy gameplan or Kessler forced him to fight that type of fight.

              Froch isn't the best but his fights are exciting, Froch vs Abraham is going to be great.

                Lol Kessler doesnt fight good backwards either.

                In their next fight I see Kessler winning a UD over Green and Froch getting KTFO by Abraham

                  thats exactly what i was thinking! why didnt froch put his foot on the gas pedal and bring some damn pressure. i dont even like froch but i thought he was winning when kessler was stepping back. someone tell froch hes not fast enough to a be an effective boxer-counterpuncher. he needed to hold his ground more, move forward, and let his hands go. he was no doubt the stronger of the two. i see froch goin down against abraham too.
