    I thought the 118- 110 was a bit out thought, I had it 116-112, could have been 115-113.
    Great battle and a deserved win.

    Agreed I had Froch by 3, thought his jab was key and when it came to the toe to toe he seemed to have the last word more often than not. He won't beat Ward tho', unless that 1st judge and 2 of his mates are scoring.

    Never a 118-110 fight.Closer than that but in my opinion Froch was the worthy winner.

    I had it 116-112 Froch.

    Two great warriors, two awesome fights.

    I'm greedy. I want a third.

    Great fight, great performance from froch. It was bound to be a war with these 2, granite chins both of them.

    Groves was very impressive too.

    I had it 115-113, with Froch a worthy winner. I'm not his biggest fan, but he wins me over more with each fight.

    Don't want to see a third fight as Kessler is definitely on his way out after 49 fights. The result wouldn't be different, and I wouldn't want to see a warrior like Kessler knocked out.

    If Froch is looking for legacy fights then he should be asking Chavez JR to step up from middleweight division. Or just accept the weight difference and take Cleverley's title and become a two weight world champion.

    Good shout, couldn't see Cleverley winning that, he likes a tear up too much.
