    Man, people say Kessler won because everyone was watching a stream and 80% of people on this forum hate Froch or just lvoe Kessler.

    I mean there were people scoring it 'cearly' for Kessler 9-3/8-4. Lmfao.
    I downloaded the fight afterwards. Now the fact you think it was homecooking leads me to believe that you think it was a clear Froch victory. I had it 7-5 for Kessler. Could have had it a draw I don't believe Froch won it. It was an odd fight because Kessler outworked Froch when usually Froch does that. People who scored it 8-4 are being generous to Kessler I think.

    I do agree with the horrible judging, if Froch HAD done enough to win (which most people done believe) then they probably wouldln't have given him the fight. I only referred to Froch's comment about body punching because it was CLEARLY affecting him and regardless of what you think you saw there WERE more that 3 body punches landed by Kessler.

      is the same on other forums, some are 90% Kessler-10% Froch. its not that the whole world is against Froch, but the fight is nowhere as close as you think, if it wasnt the numbers would look different.
      actually the numbers are about the same as the Vitali-Arreola fight

        Thats bull**** to be fair. Calzaghe dominated Kessler the entire fight. Froch lost by a round max.

                I just re-watched it myself, what a great fight it was.

                I'm wondering how long both guys will be out because of the cuts, especially Kessler he had a nasty gash on his left eye.

                FOTY so far, no doubt in my mind.

                  By the way. I'm not disrespecting Kessler. Great fighter and a great guy but Froch at this stage in their careers is a superior boxer. Disgusting homecooking but Saurerland. If you ever needed more doubt:

                  They put the belt on Kessler before the decision was even announced...! lmfao and when it was announced 8-4/9-3 was a disgrace. No surprise from Tilleman and Kalle though.

                      The only disgusting thing is your bias. Most people agree that Kessler won and the decision went to the right man, deal with it.
