    With all due respect mate,what have you seen that makes you think Froch could be stopped inside 8 rounds?

    I know it's not impossible,just interested in how people are coming to the conclusion that Froch will be stopped before the Championship rounds.

    People jumping on conclusions after the weigh ins are making me laugh. Weigh ins, staredowns etc don't mean **** folks, I mean come on.

    Kessler has definitely lost muscle mass in his last couple of fights. I'm pretty sure Jimmy Montoya has said this is on purpose and Kessler has been hitting harder than ever.

    Kessler 14/1 for stoppage in rounds 10 -12
    Froch 10/1 stoppage in rounds 10 - 12

    Decent odds.

    Think it'll be a cagey affair until one of these guys gets semi hurt. Then it'll be a war.

    My money on my man Kessler.

    Well, he has been struggling with stamina problems and for this fight he needs to be fast and mobile too, so it makes sense. Also, I guess it makes making weight easier and if you're less weight-drained, your stamina improves, you are more durable and you perform better.

    Well, against Froch, for example, it would have been better if he had been fitter in the second half of the fight.

    Froch will start even faster this time and be even more active. Kessler needs to be fitter than last time.

    I totally disagree... Kessler won the first froch fight by outworking Froch. I dont see Kessler or Froch as fighters with stamnia issues!

    They both dont want to lose.

    Both got s country behind them.

    Both dont have a great defence.

    there will be no dirrell tactics.

    I think kessler will hit carl a lot more than carl will hit him.

    I think kessler will be robbed

    Should be entertaining

    it cracks me up each time Froch uses the vulcanic ash cloud as an excuse for loosing the first fight...could he not train because of it or what :)

    Kessler's reconstructed eye does not look great and will be vulnerable, nevertheless I just cannot imagine Froch beating him. I will not be shocked if Carl gets dropped multile times, even with that chin.
