I agree, a victory over Kessler will look pretty on the CV & the casuals will lap it up, but I'm utterly convinced Kessler is finished. The only meaniful fight for Froch at 168 is Ward. Having said all that, I wouldn't begrudge Froch a big pay day & chance to avenge his defeat to Kessley should he go that route.
I scored it something like 8-4 on the night, and 8-4 when I watched it the second time. It was a competitive but fairly clear cut fight. And the point remains that Kessler was already looking faded, yet still had enough to beat Froch. Even if you believe it was closer than I do, or that it was a win for Carl, he hardly controlled things. I'd prefer he doesn't fight Kessler. It's a name and nothing more at this stage.
I dont want him to fight Kessler, it is a pointless fight now at this stage....I did score it a great deal closer than you did first time round
