Did you look at the punch stats? Did you watch the fight? Are you serious? Kessler was on the verge of being stopped in the 12th. This was a close but clear win for Carl Froch 8-4/7-5.

Froch was wobbled everywhere in the 10th still only 1 point round.

punch stat example

you landed 230

I landed 178


But if I win 7 rounds by 2 punches and you win 5 by the other margin, I still the win the fight.

Win the round big or win it small - it's 1 point round without knockdown's etc

His jab and Kessler's inactivity won the the fight for Froch. Kessler is also no where near the fighter he was a couple of years ago. I also find it rather strange that Carl is a unified champ and the man who beat him easily no longer even has an alphabet belt. I also give Ward credit for not overreacting to what Froch had to say. But than again I guess it would be easy to do when you know 100% that you really are the best.

What was said to Ward, intrigued?

Except Froch literally threw 2x the amount of punches and landed 100 more headshots. 10-8 rounds exist without knockdowns and regardless of that, Froch easily won 7 rounds. Everyone who watched this fight is saying the same thing, there was a clear cut winner here, Froch.

Ah man Ward, why not travel?

No chance he travels to Uk now with that 118-110 scorecard.

He had a hard enough time getting the judges to score the Froch fight fairly in his own country.

He missed most - and Froch was lunging in throwing inside cuffing shots and a lot were hitting gloves.

I know you can get 10 8 rounds without knockdowns but I didn't see one in this fight.

Most are Froch fans. I disagree, it's not the end of the world. Looking forward to seeing who he fights next.
