Froch is doing all he can, Hearns would have moved on by now. Hearns can put Froch in a winnable fight and sell out a decent place. Froch wants Kessler and has made that abundantly clear for a while. Kessler doesn't seem incredibly keen and I would think thats partly cos Froch is in hot form and partly because he'll need to go to the UK and be financially compensated. Hopefully the political bs gets put to one side and this gets done because it is huge.
If the rematch ever happens Carl stops him, you heard it here first, Carls gotten better, a lot better, Kessler is the same if not worse, Carl learnt alot form his loss to Ward, Kessler learnt nothing in both his losses to Ward and Calzaghe, Froch stops him
Froch needs Kessler more than Kessler needs him so he isnt going to take a **** deal for a fight that could jeopardise a Ward rematch is he.
Your wrong. I think if Kessler wants a big payday he needs Froch. I think Froch wants Kessler more than Kessler wants him.
Hmmmm i disagree that Kessler has gotten worse, he may have improved just like Carl Froch. He has looked rejuvenated for sometime now.
Given Kesslers track record he deserves the benefit of the doubt (and then some) where any "ducking" charges are concerned. Driving a hard bargain? Maybe. Ducking? I doubt it.
@ PK He looked good against Magee but getting dumped on his arse against Greene wasn't so hot! He did end that fight in brutal fashion though it must be said! Kessler has already beat Froch there is no way he is ducking he just wants the best deal he can get for himself and is holding out for it, if you were Kessler knowing that the closer it gets to the 15th and the mandatory situation he is more likely to get what he has asked for from Hearn he is just being smart! I think they need each other. Froch needs it to avenge his loss so he can say that last time wasn't the real him and that he's shown he's the better man before moving on to a Ward rematch. Kessler needs Froch because he needs a title and it's the best fight for his legacy and fans as well as the biggest pay day too and aside from Ward, Froch is no 2 even above himself in everyones rankings. Sauerland aren't going to be dumb enough to get there two prize assets both holding title belts to fight each other, that would be insane. AA hasn't even been mentioned there is no way they let that happen they'll milk them both like FW would! The fight just makes sense and for me is the fight that I would most like to see in all divisions across the board from an entertainment point of view. If Froch wins they could have an epic third decider on neutral ground!
No matter what anybody says! Greene can punch. Kessler got up and came through it. Kessler for aslong as it lasted, was doing better against Ward aswell! And that was a 100% fully fit Ward. Kessler seemed abit ****ed mentally that night.
Abraham won't fight anyone decent now he has gone back to his stay in Germany defending the WBO days now. He stepped up and got exposed in the Super 6 and now he'll fight Stieglitz again and win, then a few bums and maybe Sturm at some point before retiring with a few quid.
