I have Froch 4-1 up...

Rounds 1, 4, 5 have all been quite tight...

Could be an interesting decision as I'd have no problem with anyone scoring anything from 5-0 Froch to 3-2 Kessler at the moment.

 

47-47

 

Carl's gotta lift his left a bit more in defence against Kessler, too risky to keep that hanging down there. Kessler's got power, the viking is well in this.

 

Froch 3-2, Kessler finding his rhythm

 

3-2 Froch

 

I have it 4 rnds to 1 for Froch

 

4-1 Froch

Kessler had a decent rd in the 5th. It was at ;east close. Ill give it to Mikkel

 

3-2 Froch

 

4-1 Froch
(I can easily see it as 3-2 since the 4th could have gone either way IMO)

 

Looks like the fight has changed a bit. Kessler looks a bit sharper than Froch now.

Did Kessler hurt Froch in round 3?

 

Kessler needs to be assertive. He's aging, he's fading, but he's the faster fighter, the more refined puncher, and Froch's defense is sub par. If he throws and fights positively, he'll land. THIS is what he needs to beat Froch.

Close fight. Froch is a point up, but he's coming apart a bit.

Andre Ward is the best 168 in the world by some distance, neither terribly impressive so far.
