after reading the boxing forums it looks like a few people had Froch winning the fight, one of those scorecards was an obvious hometown scorecard for Kessler

Imo whoever won the first 2 out of 3 rounds should have won the fight, going to have to rewatch the first few rounds later
 
Froch was making it look easy for a while Matt.... last few rounds he started to fight too much off his back foot, Kessler was the one coming forward for the last few rounds but really wasn't landing a whole lot, rounds 8,9, and 11 could have easily gone to either fighter, Kessler fighting in front of his crowd looked to be the difference in the way those rounds were scored


meh... I don't have a huge problem with the decision.. Froch slowed down in the later rounds after looking dominant for a while there, no doubt in my mind Froch takes this fight if it was in England

a bit underpriced would be a huge understatement, -190 is almost too good to be true.... hell -400 is too good to be true

safe to say I will be taking a forced break from gambling if Mosley wins this fight

going to have to question my handicapping abilities if Kessler wins today...... over 11.5 is probably the safer bet but I can't help but notice too many similarities to the day Kessler took a boxing lesson from Calzaghe... looking to get back my losses from the Pavlik fight, what a horrible play that was... looked like pavlik was starting to take control of the fight before those nasty cuts opened up, but either way, laying the price I laid with pavlik was an embarrassment

Froch isn't even close to being in Zags' class. A better comparison would have been how JT outclassed Froch for the majority of their fight before getting stopped in the last seconds. Froch is a fraud. Dirrell even made him look like an amateur, and would have won going away had he let his hands go more. Kessler looked bad against Ward because Andre is in fact that good. Huge step down going from Ward to Froch.

And I'm not trying to be a dick after the fact. I've posted a hundred times that this was a great matchup for Kessler.
 
You guys playing anything for tonight's HBO card?

Took a smalll shot on Julio +475, knowing the most likely outcome is a stoppage in Angulo's favor. But Angulo is so hittable. Julio had his moments against Kirkland, and Kirkland has less holes as a pressure fighter than Angulo. I can envision Julio taking a page from Cintron's book and using his speed and movement to frustrate Angulo.

Think Adamek will outbox Arreola with ease, but there's a good chance he'll tire late and get caught.
 
calm down guy, fight was pretty close, Froch is certainly not In Zag's class but he was out boxing Kessler before fatigue set in


Froch just looked too passive those last few rounds, Kessler looked to be the hungrier of the two...congrats on your win!

Kessler was +255 live betting going into the 6th round, Froch was clearly the better boxer of the two, just couldn't maintain the pace he set early in the fight

I wouldn't put a dime on arreola. He is a overweight out of shape alcoholic. In an interview that I heard a while ago...

Chris what is the worst part about training for a fight? "No coronas man"

And I highly doubt that he really takes care of his body enough to be a good boxer for too much longer.
