    If Froch wins a close UD in a proper tear up - do you think we will get a Froch/Kessler3?

    We can hope!!!

    It would depend on how much of a "Captain Ahab" mentality Carl has toward avenging his other loss, to Ward.

    If he leaves well enough alone and can be satisfied with avenging just one there should be a nice big pot of gold available for the Kessler rematch - and he would have full negotiating leverage meaning it would almost certainly be in the UK again, this time Nottingham.

    If he is obsessed with parlaying it into a shot at redemption with Ward, though...:verysad

    Kessler by stoppage.

    Last time Froch was crying in pain from those rights to the body and Kessler's hook seemed to land whenever he threw it. Froch was also hurt last time.

    Since then Kessler's bodyattack has improved and so has his hooks. He is also more aggressive which again was a key to the first win; Froch is not good fighting off the back foot.

    I think it's fair to say that Froch REALLY wants that revenge, but I simply believe that Kessler is the better and more skilled boxer.

    So barring injuries this amounts to a brutal KO win for the dane. Froch will cry. Again. :deal

    A stoppage for either would be gargantuan.

    What are the odds Kessler gets another injury prior to fight date?I will place money on those odds.
    Kessler does seem a little war weary these days.:deal

    Froch by stoppage, most likely cuts/ corner stoppage

    Less than a third going for the previous victor. :think

    Yeah that's more to do with the home advantage which is probably swaying people, I think most people see it as a 50/50 fight though.

    Wonder how long they'll leave Kessler standing out in front of the baying, screaming crowd before playing his walk on music as they did with Bute and Mack. :think

    Any psychological advantage they gain will be neutralized the moment his customized Volbeat jam starts blasting over the speakers. :ldevil

    I can't believe how Froch is only the slight favorite. He should win. Heck, i thought he won their first fight. Kessler has looked like thrash for a long time now. I think the odds should be closer to 3/1 in Froch's favor.
