    **** Ward. When he goes to dive in with his head Froch may just uppercut the ****er! The Cobra is coming for him.

    Most news sites and what not have it scored pretty clearly for Froch, in the neighborhood of 116-112.

    While i agree that the 117-111 scorecard was way too wide, to say that having it for Froch by more than a point is horse****, is just that, HORSE****, thought he clearly won but it was close, he could have made it a much easier night for himself though if he worked his workrate and punch output earlier.

    Thought he won it by a couple pts or so.

    I thought Froch would put Johnson in retirement, I was wrong, I had surprisinly Johnson by one round, 115-113...

    Great fight, it could gone either way

    To give Johnson more than 4 rounds you would really be searching hard for it. Froch by 4 rounds and 5 at a push, the closest would be by 3 IMO.

    And that round 1 had 10-10 written all over it. Neither guy established any kind of rhythm or did any clean work and threw similar amount of punches.

    exactly, froch won 7 rounds 1 even and johnson won 4 could be 6-5-1 as well but in the end froch created a clear edge with that last few rounds.
    If he had better defense and wouldnt constantly get hit with those big rights he would have won easier.

    No way did Johnson win 7 rounds. The first was impossible to give either man and the 11th was a clear, clear round for Froch.

    No way did he win round 1. Froch won that easily by just jab jab jabbing! Glen did fcuk all.

    He probably meant 10, not 11. I personally had 2, 3, 6, 7, 10 to Johnson, 1 even, the rest to Carl. 115-114 Froch.
