    IF Froch ever gets back to full fitness due to his dodgy knee, I think he poses Kessler some good questions. Kessler is fundamentally sound but is not a natural boxer, everything is organised nicely and planned. He couldn't react when Calzaghe changed tack. Froch tries different things throughout his fights. I think this could unsettle an unconfident Kessler. I can't see Froch ever winning but I think it would be a lot closer than most people think.

    I've only seen Froch against Reid, and he looked very sloppy. Kessler will have a field day with him, taking him apart

    I get the impression Froch was struggling with his knee in that fight, hampering his mobility. If Froch can't get over that then he's screwed.

    According to him, he couldn't have been because Calzaghe, Kessler and Bute have all ducked him!:deal

    i am from nottingham watched froch many times. he is talented. he hits hard. has good reflexes. but his defence is appauling and as you say his left hand is too low and he would get picked off. kessler 7th KO

    i think kessler would ko froch early, he looks like he would just walk right through him.

    maybe that was a bit much but his defense is just so bad i think the first world class fighter he face's will ko him, he's a good boxer strong and looks to have a good chin but then who has he fought to have tested it.

    Inkin is world class and I don't think he'll stop him! No?

    Froch has never been down in his career. Not even looked tired.
    He beat Poras more impresively than Kessler.
    Lucien Bute couldnt put away Tatevesyn. Froch made him look a novice.
    Frank Warren wants to sign Froch badly and would only give him a fight with Calzaghe with 5 fight option. WHY?
    Kessler is predictable and was hyped for Calzaghe fight.
    Froch will KO Kessler in late rounds. Then maybe a few more of you will believe.
    Carl will beat Inkin and become mandatory for Calzaghe. What will Joe do??
    Vacate! Cos hes not a bib name. Well what are Bika, Ashira? Ashira has lost to Frochs sparing partner.
    Froch is brash and generally not liked, but how many gave Eubank a chace againsed Benn??
