    I am glad Froch beat overrated Bute. But lets not get to carried away here the guy has lost 3 of his last 6 fights. He lost to Ward Kessler and Dirrell. Im glad he comes to fight but lets keep it real he is no GREAT or HERO. **** he was loosing to Jermaine Taylor. Congrats to Carl though

    Personally, I thought he beat Kessler. I had him losing close to Dirrell, but that fight was so close that neither guy could cry foul. I had him winning against Taylor and either way, he demolished Taylor in the end. Get off of his back, he fought a great fight and achieved his greatest win. Bute is not just some exposed douchebag like so many on E.S.B. are making him out to be. Bute is a very skillful fighter, but Froch has his number all day long.

    I don't think I scored Froch/Kessler but the reactions of the corners after the fight seemed to bear out the cards. Kessler's corner was elated and Froch's corner was sullen. I gotta say I wasn't a fan of Kessler's new found style though. I know he felt he had to make adjustments but I don't think activity for the sake of activity is going to serve him that well in the long run.

    He was victim of homecooking against Kessler and was sick against Ward

    Froch has never truly lost. Froch the real smw king

    No he's lost 2 of his last 6 fights Ward and Dirrell, he beat Kessler 6 rounds to 4 with 2 even.

    Froch beat Kessler. I believe I had it either 115 to 113 or 116 to 112.
    That decision was BS. I was surprised in the Ward fight though.
    I expected that fight towith be closer. Ward
    is on a higher level, plain and simple. I believe Froch is a great talent
    though, masterful boxing skills. Abraham looked to be in shock as
    he got a boxing lesson. I love Froch's wife, haha stunning beauty
    with a potty mouth. Have you guys heard her cheering and yelling ringside?
    Hes a lucky man. How did people see this fight? Im only asking
    strictly legal viewings. It wasnt on ppv or any channel on IO which
    is what I have. Im just pissed cause I wanted to see this fight, and
    it seems like everyone and their mother saw it. I feel like it could
    have been on shobox or hbo, I mean these guys are well known
    to boxing fans.
