I think that's fair. I would have it 10-2 but could even stretch to 9-3. Round 5 was a clear Froch round to me and I think he came on strong in the C Rounds, you could give him (IIRC) 10, 11 or 12 too.
I gave Ward every round, maybe Froch won the 12th but I thought it was a clear landslide. 115-113 was shocking
115-113 is a ridicolous scoring. I would rather call it a shout out than such a close fight. 118-110 was a right score
You cant give Froch a round because he didnt get smashed as badly as all the other rounds. He got thoroughly beaten. The judging might have been to make it seem closer for the benefit of future Froch bouts. At least the right man won unlike fights like jCC vs Sweet Pea.
I scored 4 rounds to Froch. It seemed a clear win but not a dominating win. I dont think either looked great
this is a problem once to often in boxing we gotta change this shite and corrupt judging system ward dominated at least 9 rounds
Froch fougt brave, but it was a fight to one goal. Dominating not, because many rounds were close. I would rather call it a schooling. Ward was better than Froch in every boxing aspect (handspeed, head and body movement, ring genealship, effective aggression, in and out fighting, combination punching, footwork, etc,).
it was a close fight. Not a schooling or a domination. Just a good fighter losing to a better fighter.
This content is protected 25% Clean Punching 25% Effective Aggressiveness 25% Ring Generalship 25% Defense Clean Punching Landing on a scoring area (face or side of head, not including the back of the head; the front and sides of the torso) with the knuckle portion of the glove. Clean punches will land flush, not glancing or partially blocked by one's opponent. "Slapping" or "backhanding" is not allowed. Effective Aggressiveness Display of pressing forward, and in doing so, scoring more clean punches, or more damaging blows, than opponent. Particularly with hard punchers, even blows that are not landed very clean, but obviously affect the opponent, are given scoring weight. Ring Generalship The ability to control the pace and style of the fight. Defense The ability to avoid punishment.
Froch didn't dominate a single round, he was always beaten to the punch. I had it a shutout, and I had 1 round I thought you could give to Froch.. 1. People in the RBR were scoring rounds to Froch for not doing as bad as he had, and that is wrong. Froch thinks he lost big, and the fact that the official cards look so close will give people the impression that things didn't happen the way they did. Give it a year or 2 and people on ESB will talk about how Froch was robbed, look at the scores.
you need to have NO judges from the same countries of the fighters because good judges are obviously trying so hard not to be bias at all that they are going the other way and giving any round in even slight doubt to the opposition of their countryman
To me, Froch did not win any rounds. I can understand giving him 2 rounds. Any more than that I don't think you know what you are watching
