    Myself and a lot of other people felt Froch beat Kessler.

    Watch the reactions of the corners after the fight. Each had the appropriate face on.

    You are not exactly explaining the details. This is the problem with Boxrec. Mitchell had lost by close SD to Ottke in a fight many felt he won for the lineal SMW title in a WBA/IBF unification fight, then was blown away by Calzaghe. You dont note that Mitchell retired and didnt fight again for quite a few years after Calzaghe :oops: and that it was at a different weight when he came back years later and not SMW.
    You dont note that Mitchell was only ever beaten clearly at SMW once either or that before Calzaghe stopped Mitchell, that he had never been stopped before
    Johnson, Dirrell, Abraham, Pascal, Taylor hadnt done as much at SMW, and if you are looking at losses, and laughing at Mitchell well then you look a right twat because
    Johnson was after Froch taking his 4th loss in 6 fights
    Abraham coming off a loss was to lose one fight after Froch and amongst a run of 1-3 with a win over a journeyman
    And Taylor was 1-2 coming into Froch and after Froch and with his fight after ended 1-4

    Yeah thats really elite

    Yeah one loss by a SD in an away fight many felt he won, to one of the best SMWs is in their eyes considered terrible but
    Johnson was after Froch taking his 4th loss in 6 fights
    Abraham coming off a loss was to lose one fight after Froch and amongst a run of 1-3 with a win over a journeyman
    And Taylor was 1-2 coming into Froch and after Froch and with his fight after ended 1-4
    Is really elite.

    They wont be able to give a sensible answer. Imperial will just come out with something not even relevant and avoid the questions. A true question ducker

    Remember when Joe defended his "title" against Pudwell? That guy was one hell of a 154 pounder. Evans Ashira was also a top defense of the prestigious WBO 168 pound title against a dangerous Jr Middleweight. No one including Froch can **** with that.

    Calzaghe easily. 49 voted for Froch? That's surprising, the adrenaline must still be running high with fight fans.

    Calzaghe's troop of deluded nut riders are as off track as Bute's fans. Calzaghe could get credit for knocking out a card board cut out from these fools.
