Froch didn't do enough to claim a to point lead after the fight. Kessler was a bit more active and didn't take much time to pause. I think he also took the initiative at the right times. If you score Froch's long jab everytime it glanced Kessler then I might see your perspective.
How did Kessler win round 12? If there was 1 minute left, you could make a case for him being stopped. He was throwing a lot of punches that looked good, although he was missing and he was hurt at least 3 times in that round.
Yeh i saw 12 as a clear Froch round, one of the easier rounds to score imo. Lots of people seem to have been fooled by Kesslers wild razzle dazzle combos in the last 20 seconds...
round 12 for Froch, I am sure of it but I still had Kessler win the fight. That said it could easily have been a draw and I would have been happier with that result.
