A strict referee also wouldn't have given Bute a 20 count to avoid a KTFO loss on his record years ago.
I posted several times that I had 115-113 and would have no complaints with 116-112. Why can't I get a thread about my opinion?:|
watched it again tonight scored it 116-112 for Froch 1 10 :9 Froch 2 10 :9 Froch 3 10 :9 Froch 4 9: 10 Kessler 5 9: 10 Kessler 6 9: 10 Kessler 7 10:9 Froch 8 9:10 Kessler ( could go either way) 9 10:9 Froch ( could go either way) 10 10:9 Froch 11 10:9 Froch could go either way 12 10:9 Froch 116-112 Froch i think everything from 117-111 Froch to 114-114 sounds OK but Froch deserved the Win 118-110 from one judge looked a bit wide
No way in a million years did Froch win rd 11 - he was inches away from being KTFO in that round. Apart from that I agree.
Froch won two minutes of round 11, it just so happens that Kesslers one minute was big, its perfectly plausible to give it to Froch.
Whats the big deal? Froch threw nearly 1000 punches. landed a third of those. Dictated the majority of the fight with his jab, landed decent power shots consistently. He clearly, I mean clearly won the fight. It was not as close as the first encounter. 116-112 is well justified.
Throwing and landing are two different things.Froch was swinging like a windmill at times and hitting nothing but air.I still had it 116-112 Froch.
