    It's an interesting fight where you got a guy like Kessler somehow be able to win & grind out some rounds, yet he's getting his ass whooped at the same time. :lol: Kessler was getting hurt & rocked multiple times

    Kessler won a close fight by being more active in the middle rounds & dominating the centre of the ring

    Quality fight with a tremendous atmosphere, i'd love to go & watch a big fight in Denmark one day

    Nah Kessler won imo

    I'm a massive Froch fan, thought he'd do the business before the fight and although he did well, he simply did not win the rounds.

    That said, if they rematched, I'd pick Froch. I remember reading that the whole ordeal of him having to jet out on short notice in the midst of the volcano ash hindered him, which I believe to be a genuine excuse.

    Kessler was the better fight on the night without a doubt deserve the decision.

    Kessler won the fight, but was getting his ass whooped in the process. Dude took the most damage in that fight

    Scored the bout 3 times, 115-113, 116-112, 115-112. all in favour of Kessler

    Close fight no doubt but was no robbery if thats what your hinting, Froch got hurt and wobbled a few times aswell

    I'm a massive Froch fan and by no means either guy had his ass whooped, it was a close fight! also none of them were really rocked, maybe Kessler but def not Froch who i think has never been rocked/dazed/wobbly in his whole career cos of his chin.

    That was hell of a macho fight, I think both got their asses whooped. Might be the last we see of Kessler at this level :(.

    Whenever I see a close fight and my preferred fighter loses, I rewatch and try to give it to the other fighter, I had no problem doing this, rules out a robbery in my eyes.

    Close fight, no one can complain.
