    Just watched it back. This was my card;

    1) 10-9 Froch*
    2) 9-10 Kessler*
    3) 9-10 Kessler*
    4) 10-9 Froch
    5) 10-9 Froch
    6) 9-10 Kessler
    7) 9-10 Kessler
    8) 9-10 Kessler
    9) 9-10 Kessler*
    10) 10-9 Froch
    11) 10-9 Froch*
    12) 10-9 Kessler

    113-115 Kessler

    The rounds with * are ones that could have gone either way or been even. Anything from 116-112 either way I would agree with.

    I had it Froch 115-113, either way it was a pickem....any one who says it was a clear cut fight doesn't know what clear cut means

    I had this fight 117-112 for Kessler. It really wasn't close.

    I remember the whining of Froch and his fans, but I had Mikkel clearly up. It was a tough, competitive fight, but Kessler took about 8 rounds.

    To be honest I don't think I've actually watched the fight again since I saw it live.

    I'm pretty sure I scored it 116-112, always having the impression that Kessler was ahead throughout. Froch started too slowly and then produced a mid-round surge, before Kessler came back to pinch a couple more, then they went to war in the last couple.

    115-113 Kessler.

    Straight right hand to body early in the fight was key for Kessler.

    Was a close fight and every round was competitive but had Kessler just doing more throughout the fight and winning something like 7rds to 5 or 6-4-2.
