    ^^^I think this proved once again that Froch wants to stay in his backyard for the rest of the tournament cause he knows if he stays on his feet when the 12th round end, he'll get a decision even if he lose the fight easily. I think this proved that Dirrell got robbed . In which Kessler will mostly get robbed too if it's in england.

    If Froch wants to be taken serious again he should do all the travel now..

    But yes, he will probably lose if he do

    Dude if I was fighting against the toughest dudes on the planet I would want to fight at home to. Not for bias judging but because he more comfortable in that atmosphere.

    Ether way he's gonna lose. So why not in front of his fans?

    ^^You mean he's conforable because he knows he'll get a decision win if he stays on his feet? Cause thats exactly what happen in Froch vs Dirrell fight. Kessler is already going to fight Ward in Wards backyard. So why should Froch fight Kessler back 2 back in Froch backyard? Do you think thats fair? And Kessler in more popular in demark then Froch is in england. Didn't Froch he wants to move out in brittian ? This guy is a disgrace.

    Kessler-Froch has been scheduled as being in Copenhagen for a long time.

    This is a ***** move by the Froch team.

    :rofl@your avatar.

    Copenhagen would be preferable since Kessler already travelled to UK to fight a champion in his career. But it'll probably go to whichever venue's likely to generate the most £, which I suspect would be Nottingham.

    Thats pretty lame. The guy got a Gift in his hometown and is acting like there is a plot to rob him in any other place.

    Behavior like this is adding to the hate for him.

    Erhmm... Kessler fills out a 25.000 seat arena in Denmark. So I suspect that a fight in Denmark would generate the most £ ....

    Not saying I agree with him.

    But I understand his reasoning.

    He sees a fighter who most consider the best and he's unsure if he can beat the guy so he wants to fight at home.

    If am the Colts I wanna play New Orleans in Indianapolis. Not New Orleans.


    He's no Glen Johnson. But I think he's a good fighter who wants to stay undefeated and maybe not end up like Taylor. KO'ed in another country.

    Well, I'd say if he's going to lose anyway, better outside - first he'll not lose in front of his fans on his home turf, and second he can claim he got robbed outside... If he fights at home, it's a lose-lose situation - if he loses on his home turf, it's bad, and if he does win, it's only due to hometown robbery...

    So better to fight outside - if you win, you come back with fame and honour, and if you lose, you can ***** about you got robbed... Unless you lose by KO then you can't say much about it, but then it's better to get KOd outside then in front of thousends of your fans...

    are you forgetting that none of the judges were british anyway? I know Froch's stock has gone down but the only way I see it going vs Kessler is back up....even if its in defeat, Froch is too slow to chase what people have been calling 'runners' all night.

    Hennessy said they will sit down with Sauerland and will stage the fight where it is most commercially attractive.

    That will certainly be in Denmark, or even in Germany - not the UK. Mick has been so inept in his handling of Froch it just isn't funny...... couldn't even get a TV deal for Taylor, and struggled like hell for Dirrell, accusing major broadcasters of lowballing him, and cobbled together a PPV channel in two weeks.

    I attended the fight live, but apparently the online streaming was awful, according to a friend of mine, an obscure illegal stream was far better :-(
