Anyone here who would honestly* support Froch against Kessler...?

I like both. Kessler is a better fighter though.

 

Bute is hardly going to improve and develop by fighting guys that are past it like Joppy, is he? If he's as good as a lot of people are making out, you included, why not step up the level of opposition rather than going in the other direction? It just doesn't make sense to me and is a sign that he and/or his team perhaps doesn't fully believe in him (he's nearly 28 remember, almost the same age as Kessler).

I agree that Calzaghe would be a step too far for Bute, he's the man at 168, but Kessler? People are overestimating Kessler, like he's some sort of God, when the only good opponent he's beaten is Mundine almost 3 years ago. Lucas, Beyer and Andrade are not IMO elite fighters.

 

There was a point recently where almost every part of the forum I browsed I came across one of your Froch threads!

 

Decebal is in fact a closet Froch fan, he's just in denial

 

No need to apologise - its you I'm worried for!

 

Perhaps - he who protests too much and all that ....

 

i believe froch is a half cousin 10th removed to hatton.how do you feel about him now?

 

sure i'll support froch,after all he's the brit.however i like kessler and it wouldn't break my heart if kessler as expected whupped him.

 

As a Brit I'd support Froch but to be honest I wouldn't be heartbroken (or even surprised) if Kessler gave him a lesson.

 

KO power, great defence, good stamina = easy win for Froch




NOT.

 

I think it is a bit pathetic when a fanboy of one fights (i.e. Calzaghe) dislike another boxer merely because they are a threat.

Froch is British, I too am British so I will always cheer him on against a foreign opponent. Whether or not I'd pay money to attend is a different matter though.
