    Just seen Froch's reaction to Kessler making a comeback and he has certainly left the door open for a possible third fight between them.

    What do we think about this? Wouldn't it look like a blatant duck of GGG if he were to return to fight Kessler after he made it clear he was happily retired when there was talk of a fight between him and GGG? Probably yes, but I for one wouldn't be too upset if they settled their score given their first two fights were absolute wars.

    It's been an open secret on boxing forums all week. He's coming back to take part in that new boxing tournament that was announced recently.

    Of course, it Froch came back to fight Kessler after turning down GGG and Degale it would be a blatant duck.

    Obviously a duck whether you believe Froch wins or loses.

    Facts remain his story regarding GGG changes like the wind and it's never in line with anything either Tom or Eddie say.

    Froch and GGG was never going to happen, Froch is never making 168 and GGG is too small... at the time and even now he has no intention of leaving the MW division, never mind a catch weight fight above 168 with Froch.

    This is a non-story as well. Froch has his new hooter and a cushty little number working for SKY, it's just comments to stay relevant.

    Froch likes to talk of come backs all the time . How many times has he mentioned it, loves to take the shine off someone else. Hell of a fighter terrible pundit.

    Given that he is on decent money with Sky I doubt this happens.

    That article was typical Froch, made news about somebody else all about him. Loved him as a fighter but he is a right ****

    Word is that Kessler will make a comeback, if so, I expect Froch to make one also............

    They should both leave it well alone, Kesssler was rocking all over the shop at the end of the 2nd fight and Froch has had his nose done and been out the ring a good while.

    Two great fighters, no need to risk a comeback - it rarely ever works
