froch is way too easy to hit and kess is a strong guy w/ a solid skill set. i can't ever say someone would def stop froch b/c that seems to be a tough thing to do but froch has some serious flaws that i think kess could take advantage of and get a pretty lopsided points decision
am a still a bit on the fence with this one, we will all have a better picture once they have both had there first bouts but i'll go with kessler by decision.froch keeps them hands to low and comes in wild sometimes. taylor dropped him and i personally think kessler has more power in him than taylor so when froch makes silly mistakes kessler will be there to punish him. kessler would pump out the jab and that straight right and make froch look a little silly. but then again it could be froch vs pascal all over again. one things for damn sure i'll pimp out my own momma to get a ticket to this fight all ready got a tidy £300 put aside for this one.carn't ****ing wait!
If Kessler created the situation Jermain created in the 3rd round, he would not have let Froch out of that round. All in all, I think Kessler would win by late TKO due to accumulated damage.
I'm one of the few that think Froch vs Taylor showed Froch's abilities as a fighter rather than serious deficiencies in JT. I'm know that some think Froch was in serious trouble in round 3 vs Taylor. Having watched the fight many times, I'm of the opinion that Froch wasn't badly hurt. I know many will disagree. I think Froch could hammer out a close UD over Kessler if he gets off to a better start than he did in his last fight. I honestly wouldn't be surprised with a KO either way or a decision either way in Froch vs Kessler. We shall find out for sure next year.
Kessler would dominate Froch with his jab alone. Then he would start landing those 1 2s and would stop Froch in the later rounds.
I don't think Froch was hurt badly in the 3rd with JT, but I do think he could have been. I'm refering especially to about 30 seconds before the knock down when he got slammed back against the ropes. A better finisher with more killer instinct would have jumped on his ass right then and there instead of waiting mid-ring like Jermain did.
A good observation as we saw with the Taylor fight that Froch can be hit. My heart says froch but I think Kessler has the skillset to give Froch a hard time. You have to remember this guy managed to get some great shots off against Calzaghe who had better boxing and defensive skills than Froch. Therefore, I predict Kessler UD. Froch is also fighting away fromhome. I will definitely be rooting for Froch as he is good for British boxing so am happy if I am wrong with my predicition.
Kessler by decision! Froch is dangerous trough all 12 rounds, but Kessler usually dont slow down or gas in the later rounds and definately ain`t a stationary target, he moves pretty good and have the best jab in SMW! The only way Froch can win this is by stoppage.. but i just dont see that happend!
