    This was one of those fights that you just hate to score. A lot of close rounds between two fairly equally matched super middleweights. I had the fight 117-113 for Froch. I hate having a lot of even rounds, but after watching a round more than once and still seeing it as even, I score it even. In this fight, I had two even rounds. If I had scored both of the even rounds for Kessler, then my score would've been 115-113. I saw it how I saw it though. Does anyone else have a scorecard for this fight that they would like to share?

    I had it 7-5, or 115-113, for Kessler. I don't recall my actually rbr scorecard but I've seen it twice and scored it the same both times.

    7-5, 115-113 for Kessler. Just like every single other non-blind person in the world.

    That is absurd. This fight was difficult to score. The press row people had it
    116-115 Froch, 115-113 Froch and 115-112 Kessler. Tarver had it close for Kessler and Bernstein had it 116-115 for Froch. Were the official judges blind for having Kessler ahead by margins of 117-111 or 116-112? This was a close and difficult fight to score. I thought Froch decerved the win, but it definitely wasn't decisive.

    I didn't think it was a controversial decision at all. Kessler won clearly. Froch didn't throw enough
