It's*on tape delay in the US so if you want to avoid spoiler, stay out of this thread. Fight is about to start as the fighters are walking in.
Kessler should win, but Froch is a very tough dude who will do anything to win, wich is definitively not the case of Kessler, he may very well psych Kessler out
10-9 Kessler, but his timing on the right hand seems a bit off, like it was against Perdomo and Ward.
close first round, nothing much happened, Kessler looks sharp and Froch sloppy, as usual, but still manages to land his jab. Probably Kessler
One thing I noticed about Kess in the pre-fight fotos was that his scars looked pretty fresh. I wonder will they hold up.
Froch using his jab pretty well. Still not much to seperate them, but Kessler is pressing the issue and probably edging these rounds. 20-18 Kessler.
Froch long sloppy jab enable him to control the distance, Kessler will have to adjust to get inside where his quicker punches will prevail. Another close round but gave it to Froch
Big difference between these two guys right now is that Froch actually seems perfectly happy in there. He never seems unduly bothered, even when he is getting hit clean.
Frock won that round clear. Kessler just landed the odd jab, not much else. I don't know why Frock is being so defensive though, he's in Denmark FFS, close rounds are going to go to Kessler no doubt.
30-27 Kessler Good jab and bodywork, but he doesn´t seem to be really comfortable in what he is doing. Froch will probably pressure him at some point and then Kessler will have to stand his ground.
Froch threw a lot of leather in round 3 that didn't land. Close round. Kess got off some jabs. This fight is flying by,....
4-0 Kessler I just don´t see how you can score this for Froch so far. First you are all bitching you can´t win a fight backing up and hardly throwing when Dirrell did it and Froch is doing just that.
Great 4th round....I give it to Froch. But he got into a mini jab exchange which he lost....one thing is that Kessler is going to the body a lot too. Close fight.
