Big night in Boxing: Carl Froch retained IBF world super-middleweight title

Carl Froch retained his IBF world super-middleweight title as he claimed a thrilling unanimous points victory over Mikkel Kessler in London. Froch, 35, who lost to the Dane in 2010, gained revenge as he produced a superb performance to win in front of 18,000 people at the O2 Arena. The Englishman started well, Kessler fought back, but Froch ended strongly. Froch has now won 31 of his 33 fights, while 34-year-old Kessler lost for only the third time in 49 bouts. The decision went to the judges' scorecards with Froch getting the decision by 118-110, 116-112 and 115-113 verdicts. Mikkel go home and buy yourself a Gucci belt...lol
