    Thanks Bro :good.

    Interesting weights. I wonder if Kessler is going for speed or over done it. Looked in top shape though, So did Froch. No excuses can be made by either man tomorrow.

    The scene is set. WAR is almost here..

    The guy who interviews for Sky he said to Dave Clark ''Spot on. Great to work with these guys, both of them always easy to talk to.

    On the criteria of weigh in scoring i'd say Kessler showed the best weigh in generalship. He oozed confidence and choice of underwear edged out Froch for a majority decision.

    Did cross my mind aswell mate. Kessler looks lean, no homo.

    May well be for speed. That could well be the gameplan he has been talking about. Carl don't like speed and movement. Its common sense to use it against him. If Carl starts committing if he feels the fight starts getting away, he will be open for the KO. But Kessler's strong point isn't on the back foot, so he might well come to war, but try to use speed a lot more doing it. Very interesting. I actually think Carl's punching power is over rated, I can't see him stopping Kessler with a flash KO (I've just cursed it :lol:) but he could stop him on cuts or with a barrage of punches like against Bute. IMO.

    I have a sneaky feeling that Carl is gonna struggle to hit Kessler clean. Kessler will use a lot of upper body movement, footwork and speed.

    The weight backs up Kessler stating continually how this fight will be tactically different this time, while Froch has stuck to the 'warrior' schtick. The speed thing is interesting as Kessler's left hook could be a big weapon in this fight.

    It was noticeable on Froch's Behind the Ropes how McCracken was hitting him easily with the left everytime after he delivered anything. McCracken was having big big trouble getting Froch to move his feet to avoid the counter left.

    Froch did look fit, strong and in tremendous shape tho! But I'll tentatively stick to the Kessler KO

    :rofl thanks
     
  14. voted froch by ko

    would hate to see it though


    Kessler has slipped to much . Despite beating magee he has looked well bellow his best in the last few fights

    Froch is on a high and I will use the momentum to ko the great dane

    I think both fighters will start cagey and try and fight to set plans , but once that first hard punch lands and the crowd goes crazy , those plans will go out of the window.

    Kessler normally has a good jab , piston like , but even green was out jabbing him . I expect carl to come out and jab and move a bit before throwing his hard flurries

    The rumours of clev and groves getting the better of Kessler in sparring must be a concern if you're a kess fan or betting on him. Like Anabolic said, he has slipped and beating magee doesn't prove much.
