    Does anyone (Leon maybe?) know what the chances of seeing Kess vs Ward are? I'm guessing none of Main Event, Sky or Setanta are showing it?

    All the Yanks seem to be pretty confident in the general based on Dirrell's showing against the horrible and lucky Froch.

    Makes logical sense I guess. Not.

    Cheers Leon. I'm pretty pumped about it. Will be pretty upset if I can't see it.

    Kessler would stop Froch in 5....it will take him 2 or 3 more rounds to chase down Ward and Dirrell because they run faster :lol:

    Really? Based on what? If Dimitri Sartison lasts 12 rounds with Kessler, getting the absolute **** pounded out of him, I think Froch, who's chin is possibly his best asset, lasts longer than 5.

    Kessler and Sartison know each other and Kessler took it easy on him.....he wont let Froch off the hook like that....Kessler has stopped everybody other than him and Mundine in the last 6 years....oh and Andrade...oh and Joe :D

    If Mikkel took it easy, I'd hate to see him have a real go. You are aware that Sartison left the ring on a stretcher right? :) Froch would last more than 5 IMO.

    I guess we will see whos right early next year.....I just see Froch going toe to toe, getting caught and not lasting.

    Kessler ko 5...whats your pick?

    Ward to pull the upset. He's definately the sleeping giant in this comp. Got all the skills & decent power to go with it. I think Kessler has his hands full in this one.

    Between Kessler and Froch, Kessler late or wide points. I think he might be in for a tougher night against Ward than many think.

    How so mate?.....however most people on the GF will agree that Ward will beat Kess.

    I dont see it.....who has Ward beaten so far?

    1. Rubin Williams....the same williams drew with echols
    2. Maranda.....he's passed his best

    Ward has power, skill and speed yes I agree....but when he gets a straight right on the chin his game plan goes out the window.

    Ward wont have any reach advantage like he had over Maranda either.

    I just believe the Ward has the ability to give Kessler a tough night at the office. We'll see.

    Tend to agree it wont be an easy night at all.....just think Kess will stop him in style.
