    True, but to be fair only round 12 out of that selection could be considered a pickem round...117-111 is a completely insane score, whatever measure you use

    Completely disagree. I would say only 5 and 10 of that selection as clear Froch rounds, possibly 11, I have yet to rewatch though. One, three and twelve could easily be given to Kessler iirc.

    That seems to be the general consensus as well.As per Bunce and Woodhall above, lots of people that had the same scores got there by different routes.

    Did Tillerman score a 10=8?

    Fair enough, but I score rounds based on what lands and not what is thrown...in Kesslers case there was a massive difference.

    Does anyone know what the press row scores were? I know that Kevin Mitchell had the fight for Froch 5-4 with 3 even.

    If he did he must have had a 10-10 as well to get to 117-111.

    The most one-sided Kessler round was probably the 8th, or maybe the 6th :think

    Even then no round was anywhere near a 10-8 :-(
