Froch explaining why he lost to Kessler

Thought Froch won but it was close and could have gone either way.

 

I had Kessler by 2, thought Froch wanted it but Kessler was desperate for it. Maybe the problems took away Froch's edge.

Then he would've been jobbed proper by the judges

 

No way in hell that Kessler clearly beat Froch. Back then i hated Froch and i wanted Kessler to win but Froch clearly won that fight and i thought he got robbed. Yea it was a close fight but imo the close fight was a clear win for Froch. Froch outwork, outjabbed Kessler. Froch landed the better, cleaner shots on Kessler. Kessler look more beat up then Froch for goodness sake. For 1 person here that score 116-112 for Kessler is a goddamn idiot. If the rematch happens i got Froch by ko.

 

I truly believe that the judges had it right that night, my scorecard had kessler winning by 1 round, was it a convincing win no of course not it was close but he did win.

 

I felt if Froch would of stuck to his boxing skills, he would have won clearly. He was landing cleaner, and harder.

 

I thought Froch scraped the win but I would never argue with a win, loss or a draw. It was a great fight and the result don't really matter to me, it just raised my opinion of both Froch and Kessler and proved to me that both are complete warriors.

 

He lost because Kessler's a better fighter even past his prime than prime Froch. If he beat Froch at that stage imagine what a prime Kessler would've done to him

 

I had it close for Froch but was very close fight, as you say Kessler wasnt really landing clan, Froch landed the better shots, Kessler was hanging on in the 12th aswell.

 

LOL, shut up you ****ing idiot.

 

Sauerland was adamant all the way through: The fight would go on and that he'd pick up Froch by private jet if neccessary, so Froch is himself to blame if the private jet bit phazed him.

Kessler won a close and deserved decision despite having double vision. He was also close to KO'ing Froch. I'm as confident as can be, that a healthy Kessler would have stopped Froch that night.

 

It was Kessler's night, but Froch is the better fighter today.

But we'll never see it prime for prime.

 

This is why Froch deserves so much respect. Froch will have one a heck of a resume once he hangs the gloves up.

 

This.

Kessler won it. Sure it was close, but it wasn't the kind of close that could go either way. He won it, end of story.

However, Froch has improved in every outing. If the Froch of today fought the same Kessler, then he would win.

There is every reason to think that Froch can improve even further. It will be interesting to see just how good he becomes.

 

kessler won hands down. yes rounds were close but decisive. I think Johnson will KO Froch, then lose to Ward by wide decision in Oakland.

 

Had Froch winning it by fair margin. A bit of a robbery that.
