    Froch is a real warrior. He came to win and was willing to dig deep in this great fight.

      He is a warrior i give ya that...i just wish he would warrior up some of those skills in the gym. If he could get a decent jab out it would make everything else he does so much better.

        People on here acts as though Froch got teared apart, when in fact it was very close and Kessler got hit by them combos round after round.

        Yes I'm from Nottingham but I did bet on Kessler UD, you can check forum history for this and I thought Kessler edged it by 1 round, which makes perfect sense when Carl said he would of won in Nottingham the point going the otherway.

            lol, some of frochs jabs were funny last night! more of a tickle than a jab! almost as funny as the little pirouette he did when he missed with one of those wild hooks he throws!

              Truth be told it was a good game plan from Kesslers team but it stop working from like the 4 or 5 until the later rounds. I'm no Cobra fan but I believe he won that fight!!

                i had kessler winning froch just wasn't working enough he was getting out worked a lot.

                but kessler was impressive with his body and aggressiveness but his accuracy was horrible he could hardly land on froch and was getting hit by some punches he shouldn't have some of that came because froch is so awkward.

                  I hate the guy but to date that was the best fight I have seen out of Froch, especially when you consider the caliber of opponent. He showed a good jab, good movement an a ability to counter.

                  I am a big fan of Kessler but I think he is slowing down just bit and seems to be less fluent. Father time is not kind to fighters

                    Oh yeah. The odd thing was that he was able to land his jab with some consistency. And that was against a highly skilled jabber in Kessler. Froch may look crude and cumbersome but I wouldn't say he is badly skilled. He's rather quite slow.

                      Froch didn't show it if it was affecting him. I think the lasting effects form this fight will show on Kessler, not Froch, despite him being older.
