Kessler proved his chin in this match and Froch showed he hits ****ing hard. Froch's punches would sometimes knock kessler off balance a bit but i never saw Kessler that hurt.
In my opinion it was a Froch win but by about 2 rounds if im impartial. Froch was the quicker fighter, landed the better blows, and had better lateral movement. The judges scores were understandable but 117-111 was rediculous
I agree (more or less.) Watching Froch from the comfort of my easy chair is no doubt a lot different from being in the ring with him:yep
So in your opinion a fighter is close to stop his opponent when he lands a punch:huh Okey, it works that way sometimes! But Kessler was never hurt.. So that makes a damn big diffirence
Many have said it, and many don't feel a need to add.. but let me also repeat... when Farmboxer says that Froch's was close to stopping Kessler, is just ridiculous. Sorry, but it is. Kessler was stunned once - but like a split second. Froch was stunned twice. Once like a split second and the other for a couple of seconds. However, neithr was anywhere close to being stopped.
Its nice to read at least somebody saw the same fight than me. Froch was even close to stop MK. I think the closest thing was, MK stopping Froch in round 8... I've done slowly recount of this fight 2-3 times in slow motion - Froch has a good attitude for the eye - but if you count the hits - Froch actually only gets 3 rounds (if we give him round 12).. I lovve watching Froch, but the mann ****ing lost this fight - and he wasn'nt even a bit close to stop MK.. Period.. I ****ing hope Froch and MK will meet again in the semis or final - I don't' care you wins - all that matters to me is that its the best guy.. And ****ing MK won the fight clearly on point.. Wake the **** up guys - and forget about your personel love for at nation aso. - be real the boxing game...
Exactly - Froch close to stopping MK. It's a ****ing joke. MK has'nt even taken a count at any time in his boxing life (amateur or proof). So people are just so ****ing delusional. It would almost be the same to say that MK was almost stopping Ward - he wasn't close in a million time... LETS STAY REAL HERE GUYS.
that side of froch is poor but once he's in the ring his balls grow to the size of coconuts. EDIT : when people look back at froch's career they will, if nothing else, admire how far a limited fighter got with an iron will.
