He has serious skills, anybody that watches him can see that. He does need to prove it though, and outside of Canada.
Well he has fought some decent fighters, the guy Ward went life and death with Bika, Bute completly dismantled. Beat him much easier than Ward or Calzaghe.
So.... Kessler can't be ranked over Ward because he lost to Ward. But Froch can be ranked over Kessler....
Look at Kessler’s face after Froch/Ward/Calzaghe......... Froch beat him worse than all of them.
Let me just say this now, the American dismissal of FROCH has already begun. After FROCH defeats ward the real hate will begin. I told my fellow Americans before calzaghe fought Lacey that Joe was real deal. All they did was dismiss. I'm saying it again, FROCH is the real deal where ward = hype. And if you know me find another post where I use that phrase and you will see how I never use it. My fellow Americans have always been front running hypocrites. Unfortunately Brits are just too stupid to give FROCH the support he should have. For some reason Brits don't support real winners. But after he wins they will all be acting like they were die hard FROCH fans when the truth he doesn't get nearly the support he should from Brits.
I can't believ dirrell is in the top 3 in mosts opinion. Whats he done? Hasn't he only fought one world champion before his injury scare. Good boxer yes but has to do loads more for me before i even rank him in top 5.. Bute too, he has skills no doubt but his resume not that demanding.. Ward is class but again, fought one world champion, never really travelled and has still lots to prove. In terms of achievement I will rank froch 1st. Not saying he will beat all these guys but one thing for sure is he don't want it easy unlike some of the others.. When i see ward in the trenches i will be able to find out a little more about him Froch Ward Kessler Bute Maybe Dirrell when he grows some
I too have a sneaking suspicion froch may just do a number on ward.. The lad is a warrior and ward shows me nothing yet along these lines.. I suppose I can see the potential for him folding to froch but equally I wouldn't be surprised to see him outbox Carl. Good fight with interesting clash of styles.
