    Technical decisions exist in boxing. :deal

    These guys are hardly strangers to headbutts.

    It's going to be a really competitive and grueling fight for both, but I think Froch will just about edge it this time. I'm definitely rooting for The Viking Warrior, though.

    It could go either way but I think the judges will give Froch the benefit of the doubt in most of the close rounds.

    Even though I believe Froch has improved since he last fought Kessler, THAT would surprise me.

    Even now Kessler's style is far better suited for The Cobra than Abraham ever was.

    As did I.

    Hard to know where Kessler is at this point of his career. I didn't see him fight Magee, but saw him fight Green (But it's Green). I suspect Froch will win on points, I guess.

    Here is the Cobra's most recent outing, for good measure:

    Froch vs. Mack took place only a couple of weeks before Kessler vs. Magee, and lasted exactly as long. So they're pretty much equally fresh heading in, and coming off equally decisive routs of fair opposition that is more or less equatable. (I'd say Magee is the better of them, but without a whole lot between him and Mack)

    This is gonna be great!!

    Eventhough we have two ironbearded warriors in the ring I smell a stoppage by one of them, but I can't deceide which of them. Right now I'm leaning toward Kessler, but tomorrow I might change my openion, no matter what I'm going to see that fight.

    The poll backs them up.

    Froch is favored 2 to 1 on here. (66%)

    I see them as even harder to split and more closely matched than in 2010. :conf
