    Finally watched Froch-Kessler and what a good fight it was.
    I had Froch winning 115-114 but at that close it could of gone either way, lots of close rounds but I felt Froch did hurt Kessler on a few occasions.
    Froch rounds 1,3,5,10,11,12
    Kessler rounds 2,4,6,7,8
    round 9 even

    Just seen your avater Al and your dad looks tiny next to Zarate. The guy was a Featherweight in a Bantams body.

    Also I watched Moreno vs Cermeno II and that was no way a SD one of the best defensive displays I have seen recently.

    Just watched Moreno-Cermeno 2. Good little fight but Moreno definitely deserved the nod. I had it 116-112. Pity he doesnt have any power but hes still fun to watch. Only the very top guys are going to beat him

    I had it 118-110, some people have had Cermeno winning. Moreno bossed it I honestly cant even make a case for Cermeno winning 5 rounds.

    Moreno looked superb, his defensive moves are Zapata esque.

    Froch vs Taylor - seen it about 5 times now and im still shocked when he goes down in the 3rd and jumping up and down in the 12th. the showtime commentators make the whole fight awesome, they get just as excited as the average fan, and the epic quotes (screaming) "punches in bunchesss and its overrr!!" & "im bringing the title back to england maa!"......amazing.
