    Nah you see like Juan Diaz who will unload like 5 shots to body. Basically all shoe shiners no real mustard on them. Kessler went for quality rather then quantity. As a Froch fan it was pissing me off, Froch would land and then Kessler would land a hard one and jolt Froch's body. Who expected Kessler go to body in that fight?? because i didn't...maybe the odd shot but not the way he went about it. That was a plan and it worked brilliantly.

    I know what you mean now. Kessler obviously had big respect for Froch's durability and chin so put those shots in early as insurance. Alot of fighters say they would rather be hit anywhere else but flush on the body, truly crippling pain when executed correctly. Or in Kesslers case it took the edge off froch's attack enough for him to win. Thinking about it now it seems that was probably the difference:good

    the ironic thing is there was no German judges last night.

    Nice Food, Brown Envelopes and for the dirty old judges a brass for the night is they need to be German for around an hour.
