That's a very good possiblity against both Kessler and Abraham if Froch continues with his sloppiness.
Check out the Kessler Andrade fight for reference as to what is going to happen to Froch... You'll be shocked.
He doesn't have a favorite boxer. He just doesn't like Kessler and never pass on a chance to let everyone know. I haven't seen him post one coherent argument supporting his views yet. I seriously doubt he's into boxing.
I also think Froch will get passed Kessler, but as soon as Froch runs into Abraham, he's in deep water! As good as Carl's chin is, Abraham will be too much for him. Unless Froch gets a Bernard Hopkins like defense, Abraham will KO/TKO him! Arthutr is the winner in waiting in this tournament!
I saw that fight when it first happened. Froch has a better jab than Andrade but still, he has too many holes in his defense for Kessler not to capitalize.
He'll talk himself up to gain confidence. Then, after the fight, he will say: "I fought like a proud warrior in there, I really did. I travelled to Kessler's backyard and fought him toe-to-toe for 10 rounds which is something Joe Calzaghe never did. I almost had him there in the 6th, I really did, but he just held on instead of taking my punches like a man. He buzzed me in the 10th but I have a granite chin and I wasn't hurt...the referee stopped it too quickly...I really think I could have taken it to the cards there. I am going to come back stronger from this, I really am. I will knock Abraham out for six in his backyard and then I am going to destroy Kessler in the final. I'm still the best super-middleweight in the world." ...and his fans will melt with love and admiration.
He might have a better jab since Andrades jab is non-existent, but he has worse movement and poorer control of the ring. Furthermore he has such horrible sloppy defense which will allow Kessler to land at will all night.
