    2 punches landed, one very hard, which overshadowed the other.

    He did score with 1 out of 3, but the point I would take from it is in regular time most people would be scoring that as 2/3 punches. Even the one that did land only caught Froch at the end of its movement, and he was leaning well back.

    Froch was leaning with the punches well like that for a lot of the night, whereas his jabs were catching Kess coming in and snapping his head back.

    Surely that video helps to show that Froch did better than a lot of people were thinking.

    I hope Froch isn't as delusional as his fanboys here. He needs to realise his arrogance cost him. Kessler was there for the taking in the mid-rounds but he's got into his head he's a stylish boxer. He plainly isn't a good enough to outbox the very best (though probably could Abraham) and looks stupid when trying to show off with his hands down. He needs to stop treating his post-round break like an interview and just listen to McCracken.

    He's probably had 6/7 good rounds in his last three fights. Doesn't bode well.

    Froch at times with his defensive showboating made Kessler look stupid, until the part where Froch continued this and looked a complete moron when he was eventually caught. Which happened everytime.

    If you look at the Dirrell fight in detail its exactly the same situation...on first viewing Andre looks like he's landing but on closer inspection Froch was slipping an awful lot.

    Rob, the second landed.

    Look at the shape Frochs nose takes immediately after.

    He's very talented, like a Samurai can retract his bollocks into his body Froch is able to winch in his snot-locker at will. I heard that its never been broken, how thats the case i'll never know
