    Just watched Froch v Kessler again and I can't see how Kessler did enough to take Froch's belt off him. It was a close fight but the best I could give Kessler on my card was a draw. Can't wait for a rematch in 2012!!!

    Seriously? Kessler won that fight, no doubt.

    I felt Froch nicked it but tbh a boxing bout shouldn't be decided on who did enough cos he's not the champion. Once that belt leaves the ring and is placed on table and bell rings it's vacant IMO until the end of fight. Kessler's bodywork was very impressive and Froch struggled with it. Great fight none the less.

    Kessler won. I don't even see the "controversy" or how people can score it for Froch

    I'll rewatch it again soon and score it properly but I think I had Kessler winning at the time, but it was close. I'm not having the "didn't do enough to take the title from the champion" bollocks though.


    Not that my card's are that good mine.. I had Pacquiao/Marquez III level :oops:

    I can't remember scoring this, or atleast can't find my card - but it was a closely fought battle but not one were you'd be screaming robbery.

    Kessler win, close but clear. It changed after Kessler started going to the body with that lead right.

    Do you count bodyshots as scoring blows?

    Kessler won the fight but you felt it was the best of Kessler vs the worst of Froch
