      Good, good fight. I had Froch by 2-3 rounds. Trilogy anyone? Best fights for either in my opinion.

          It's about the Ward vs Froch fight in Atlantic City... (I didn't come up with this issue -- it was someone else who said Ward had problems in getting a proper judging against froch even in the U.S.)

            I was pulling for Kessler all the way and honestly the fight was way easy to score for Froch. And believe me when I tell you I am in no way a Froch fan but I do have pretty good eyesight.

              Kessie was never the same after his comeback... I knew he would lose.
              But not if Froch wouldn't have stayed behind the long jab...

                116-112. Froch clearly won but it was an entertaining fight with Kessler having his fair amount of moments. If Kessler had been more active perhaps we would have been talking about a second Kessler win. Froch doesn't want it but if he's parading around like a unified champ he better fight Ward again. As for Kessler, hats off to him but he's clearly on the way out. Maybe a good bye fight at home but he should retire close to the top.

                    The only thing even remotely world class about Froch is his chin.......& that's the worst atribute to have as ur beat. Annnnnnd even that has shown its not truly iron. But pretty solid nonetheless. Dude is just such a crude fighter. Be has a pretty good jab but wut good is it if ur still there to be hit?? Or if it doesn't take anything from the opponent. I like froch. But he's just so A$$. I find him entertavining as a personality. But u dudes on here acting like he's the **** really need to die. The UK has zero talent. Froch is kool but fohwtbs. No wonder yall overrated all ur heroes. Kessler is azz too. Wutever.


                    Interestingly enuff I think Froch is actually the wrong fight for Bernard. Especially in the UK. Froch would be too much activity & too rough of a fight for.nard at this age & stage of his career. Froch is trash but the pace would cause Bernard to wilt over time. Ex likes to fight in spots. Froch throws bull**** punches even if out of position. That would wear Bernard down over 12....bad fight.

                      Froch deserved the win

                      So happy Froch won, hes my fav fighter being a Brit but I can see he shouldnt get in the ring with Ward again...............he is one tough fighter and can take the shots but he will get out boxed again and will barely land a shot.
