    Think about the economical benefits first

    Froch is loved here in the UK (Nottingham at least)

    Kessler is loved in Denmark

    Why make it hard for the target audience? they would have to wait up til 3-4 am, they wouldnt be able to attend the event live without forking out a small fortune for plane tickets, hotels, food, drink, fight tickets

    I would personally have it in France as its easier for both fans to travel if your thinking neutral territory. If its staged in the UK then they can air it on showtime/hbo in the states during the day

    Maybe so, i still think there is enough left in the tank to perform in a big fight such as this. Problem for kessler is that froch should win an all out war and i expct that froch will really put it on him, especially in Nottingham.

    Great fight if it comes off and i have a sneaking suspicion froch may just stop kessler. Equally, i wouldn't be suprised if kessler proved me wrong.

    Kessler without double vision would put a serious beating on Froch. Kessler won deservedly on points last time out. Next time Froch will be demolished. Nottingham or not.

    in nottingham or not, i'm more inclined to believe froch would outlast him in a war this time around, not to say that the fight would necessarily finish within the distance, but that froch would win this one pretty clearly, in a war nonetheless.

    froch won the first fight IMO. and i think froch will convincingly win the second and leave no doubts on who the better fighter is.

    i didnt see the kessler vs green fight but i hear he started out bad, but shook off the ring rust and looked good at the end. he has to be good the whole time vs froch . or hes done.

    and last thing it will be at super middle right?? because didnt kessler fight green at light heavy?

    Even if you thought it was a draw (which it wasn't), a win for Kessler would not count as a robbery. That word is used far too lightly.

    Kessler fought at lhw, but he was only 169 lbs himself at the weigh-in. Kessler won the first fight clearly and I think he might prove too skilled for Froch yet again - especially now that he isn't coming off a loss and doesn't have a half-busted eye for Froch to open back up.

    Froch is so much win it is ridiculous. this guy is the best British boxer ever. I don't care what anyone says, he fights tough, top challengers all the time and does not stop at all. This man is an absolute G.

    Props to both Kessler and Froch if it actually happens :) I scored their first bout 115:113 in favour of Kessler and therefore felt that the right man won.

    But I think Froch has a very good chance to edge a 2nd bout between them. Make it happen!

    kessler clearly won the first fight? thats not true. if it was so clear there wouldnt be so much debate. alot of people sided with froch that fight. and too me froch won for sure. i do think froch lost vs dirrell though
