Well I just watched it back to back twice and Froch won I think.
Remember I won that money on Kessler; I'm impartial here but I gotta be honest after rewatching the fight a few times.
First lets define that I score fights based on effective punches thrown not just thrown punches and I think oversall Froch was more consistent. Many of Kessler's punches were glancing, even the flurries whereas Froch connected with heavy bombs far more often even wobbling kessler a few times. Not only that but when they stood toe to toe jabbing Froch easily caught Kessler as they both threw at the same time.
Twice Froch caught Kessler and majorly wobbled him. Why he didn't finish the show I don't know though. But he caught Kessler flush on the face at a good few times whereas in my mind kessler only caught Froch equally well the once in the middle rounds.
I had Froch 2 points up into round 12. Round 12 I scored for Kessler so Froch won by one point in my eyes.
I'm not angry nor bitter; why would I be? i made money I'm just saying Froch won that fight & got jobbed. But then boxing is as much business as sport today.
Great fight though and the true winner were us - the fans!
