Here's a part of an article in french about the Froch/Stevenson/IBF saga. Ainsi, Froch et Kessler devront soumettre une nouvelle entente à la IBF d’ici le 29 janvier et se battre d’ici le 27 avril. Le gagnant aura ensuite l’obligation d’affronter Stevenson dans les 90 jours suivant sa victoire. Aucune clause de revanche ne pourra figurer au contrat. Si une des ces conditions n’étaient pas respectées, la ceinture deviendrait alors tout simplement vacante. Stevenson devrait ensuite s’entendre avec le meilleur autre aspirant disponible. Translation : Thus, Froch and Kessler must submit a new agreement to the IBF before January 29 and fight before April 27. The winner will then face Stevenson (IBF mandatory) within 90 days after his victory. No rematch clause will be included in the contract. If any of these conditions were not met, the belt would then simply vacant. Stevenson should then fight with the best available contender for the vacant belt. http://www.rds.ca/boxe/chroniques/354701.html
yeah, this is going to be a great fight, with a great atmosphere. doing it the way it should be done. i love both fighters but, i'm hoping froch takes the win so it's one a piece. can't see it happening though. i think kessler is going to stop froch late on.
Froch and Kessler are friends,kessler said yesterday in an interview on TV,that they spoke to eachother before the kessler-magee fight,where Froch asked kessler:" will you fight me if you win?" kessler responded:" sure i will" . That is sportsmanship and respect for eachother..Carl Froch is a great guy,and one tough mother....! Froch is allways great to watch,because he never gives up,and allways has been willing to fight anybody anywhere.And im a dane,so i really like Kessler too.These guys are two GREAT fighters,that NEVER fight a boring fight....This is a SUPERFIGHT..I hope they get paid a lot of money.They deserves it :viking
