    Problem is he let the Kessler fight slip away. If he had been more active at certain points in the middle and end of the fight, he would have won.

    In reality froch won 3 out of 4 rounds quite clearly

    If the fight had have been anywhere other than denmark froch would have won

    I thought it was a VERY winnable fight for Froch. I remember thinking there were times where Froch took too long a rest in between getting his shots off and that hurt him. I'll rewatch it and see if I still feel the same way. I disagree about it not being a close fight. It was close either way. I thought Froch won too though.

    It was close. Froch and Kessler looked equally bad. Honestly, that was the sloppiest, most amateurish-looking fight between two supposedly elite fighters that I've ever seen. It hurt my eyes to watch.

    I don't disagree. I have seen Froch box beautifully off his back foot (Johnson fight), with his jab (Abraham fight) and slugging it out (Pascal). He boxed badly in the Kessler fight no doubt about it.

    Bute's response: http://www.boxingscene.com/butes-pro...-lucian--46106

    I hope the newly-intensified banter is just to build up a fight between the two for next year.

    im not saying it was frochs best fight and best performance

    but watch it again for the first 6 rounds kessler (who is still a world class very experienced fighter) doesnt land a punch of any meaning

    so for 6 rounds froch avoids getting hit, kes looks like he is coming forward and doing more work but he doesnt land

    that couldnt really be described as a sloppy performance

    then kes has a good 2 or 3 rounds and then the last 4 froch takes over again

    maybe kes wins the 12th
