    Honestly Mikkel is a tiny bit sexier than Rachel.

    Trade-up for sure.

    Kessler UD. Book it.

    Kessler looked great vs Magee, destroyed a very tough contender. But Froch did the same to an even better boxer in Bute.

    So excited for this show.

    Sorry mate, it seems like there was a last minute arrangement between Kessler/Froch, the IBF and Stevenson.

    Here's what Yvon Michel (Stevenson's promoter) said on facebook :

    Adonis Stevenson est très heureux de l'unification IBF et WBA de Carl Froch et Mikkell Kessler le 25 mai prochain présenté sur HBO en provenance de Londres. De son côté Superman, après entente avec les Froch/Kessler et l'IBF, va combattre pour le titre vacant IBF dès juin! Un bon compromis qui satisfait tout le monde! Lundi Adonis et Yvon Michel vont rencontrer les médias pour expliquer le cheminement de l'aspirant obligatoire d'ici son combat de championnat du monde.

    Ca me fait trop chier vu que je commence mes exams le 22 Mai alors que le 27 Avril c'était parfait, j'aurais même pu faire le trajet vu que c'est qu'à 2h30 d'ici en voiture. :yep Je vais m'apitoyer sur mon sort comme un loser. :-(

    Wait, I don't get it, so Froch-Kessler is a unification fight but the winner will have to vacate the IBF title ? :huh

    I don't care if it's the World Cup, you pass up on Froch vs. Kessler II and you ain't no boxing fan. :yep

    I don't expect it to be much different. Maybe Kessler a little sharper. Been there, done that. Yeah, it could turn out different but the first one doesn't have me itching for the second. Well, still take it over the Word Cup whatever that is.

    As far as the date goes, I'm quite excited that this fight will be on the same night as a Celtic game.

    It's not gonna stop me watching. They will undoubtedly time it so the fight doesn't start til the football ends. It's just gonna stop me going to the fight.
