    I watched theHBO version and they had a text in poll, 39% voted that Kessler won. Goes to show how much biased commentary can sway peoples perception.

          I don't see how you could have Kessler even close to winning unless you gave him every round that you could get away with awarding him. 2,3,4,8,12 were clear Froch rounds that couldn't be scored any other way.

            I would say Froch CLEARLY WON rounds 1-3 and the 12th

            4th round he should have won also.. but i think some were giving to Kessler due to him being completely out of the first 3 rounds then coming back a little.

            Kessler won the 5th, 6th IMO + the other round which he hurt froch.. i will say Froch was winning that round till then.. and he came back after getting hurt.. but still will give it to Kessler.

            Basically the first 3 rounds were the difference here.. + Froch came close to stopping him late.. all in all a clear win for Froch imo by a few rounds.. this was much clearer then the first fight imo

            The ref was close to stopping Kessler in the 12th..

            So Froch came on in the last championship round..

            It looked to me that Froch faded a little or slowed around the 4th till 6th.. after a high output in the first 3 + Kessler made some adjustments..

              Kessler number 1 fan here, and it was a clear 115-113 win for Froch. Kessler were just too slow to get started and too tired in the end sadly.

                Jim Watt's scorecard was pretty spot on the first time it was shown. I think he had it even after 8 rounds. Then he had Froch winning the last 4 rounds including round 11 where Froch was on ***** street.

                Talk about bias.

                    1,2,3,8 and 12 clear froch rounds

                    5,6 and 11 clear kessler rounds

                    the other 4 were debatable so just split it 2 a piece

                      I have no problem with that.

                      Do you think we will hear Kessler make a campaign for hometown scoring like Froch did after their first fight?
