    114-114. I think that score was being kind to Kessler, though.

    So far the poll indicates Michigan Warrior is getting owned AGAIN.

    I wanted Kessler to win so badly but i really thought Froch won the fight. I had it 115-113 for Froch.

    Forget that cheap diverting tactic... how do you explain that 2 of 3 guys here had it for Kessler?! They don't know boxing?!

    I recommend watching it without showtime comments again. It helps not to have somebody telling you what you should pay attention to...and there is a lot of things to pay attention to in a box match.

    No I thought it was close, but thought Froch did enough and Kessler got a hometown decision. Not saying its wrong to score it for Kessler.

    Not like it was a Dirrell vs Froch style gift.

    You wanna lecture me on how to score a boxing match? I'll post my scorecard tomorrow, and you can show me how to score.

    This has been done a million times.

    The biggest poll on ESB said Kessler 368 and Froch 38.

    A clear decision. Could these frustrated cry-babies who hope everyone gets tired of voting on this so their votes 'win' - just stop being babies?

    Tireing.

    I had the same score as you and your brother. I think my brother had the same score as well (He definitely thought Froch won and we dislike Froch).

    It's a terrible card. Philla is very excessive with his cards. Like scoring the Alexander fight 12-0 for Klitinik. It's like he's remember previous rounds when factoring the scoring of one round. That's the way it seems. Definitely hot and cold with scoring fights.

    You aren't my favorite poster but our cards are often very similar.

    Don't worry man. I remember when the threads came around after the fight. I was amazed most saw Kessler the winner. Thought it was close but clear for Froch. I saw though, that the better and more respectable posters were agreeing with me in thinking Froch won. A lot of the lesser (And some idiotic) posters thought Kessler won easy. That comforted me.
