From Danish media:

Mikkel Kessler had put everything at stake. His WBC belt, honor - and his career. Kessler had sworn that he would never return to the ring again if he lost to Carl Froch.

And it ended with defeat to Mikkel Kessler with the huge lion heart after 12 laps and judge the scores 118-110, 116-112, 115-113 in Frochs favor.

Particularly in the eighth round got Froch some hard knocks in, revealed Kessler after the fight. - It's hard to see from the outside, but I was really struck deep. It was hard for me to throw back at him after that. I had him later in the game, but I was just so tired. I really should have followed up after I hurt him in the 11th, I just could not. I was completely finished, says Mikkel Kessler.

Mikkel Kessler put up a good fight and looked for the crucial hook that could really shake Froch. But the Englishman appeared at home to be Dane's overmatch, disgusting strong, agile and opportunistic that Kessler's otherwise exemplary counterpunches was not strong enough to convince the judges in the 02 Arena in London.

In 12 and last lap took Kessler lead and landed a prestigious series on the Englishman, but the finishing touches impression handed Froch in a brilliant manner as he in the last twenty seconds forced Kessler on the ropes and landed blow after blow to the Dane.

Thus, it may end in a glorious career, 49 matches and 46 victories for Mikkel Kessler. He had the energy to smile crooked just before the official decision, for it was a Viking warrior who stood erect throughout and was very close to pushing Froch crucial over the edge.
