that's what i mean about froch.

just admit u lost a close one. :roll:

instead of that he's moaning about fighting away from home.

rather than focusing on his own shortcomings. :>

i had kessler by a round but the closer rounds will have been swayed by the crowd , i agree with froch when he said if it was in nottingham hed have won , and i dont think it would seem like kessler was robbed , but it would have been the wrong decision , froch didnt do enough for me .

How about we split the difference and have it in Belgium? Then Tilleman will not have far to come.

Froch is a bad loser in a fight he couldnt win regardless of where it happened. He was never going to stop Kessler, unless there was a bad eye injury, and he could never beat him on points. All the talk about Calzaghe should stop now. Calzaghe beat a prime Kessler and Froch was beaten, by in my opinion, a slightly less than prime Kessler. The bottom line is Froch cannot claim he is better than Calzaghe was, or that he is the best British SMW of all time. I think the Froch roadshow is over and he will pick up another loss when he fights King Arthur. Froch is good but at this level with fighters like Kessler, Abraham and Ward he is out of his depth. I cant see Froch getting a World strap again, but he can say he got there.

Froch is what he is.Absolutely nothing shocked me last night about the way either boxed or the result.Did they not know Kessler was a twelve round fighter?Even against Ward,battered from pillar to post,he still would have completed the distance.To bank on him tiring(when he never has) was sheer madness.Kessler did nothing different to what he always did,except maybe threw the right to the body a bit more which they obviously identified as a weakness of Carl's
