    Dont even bother to make him clarify anything about Kessler or Froch! he just somehow helpless seem to think Kessler is his own promotor and manager!

    Gotta give it Frochy, he wants to fight and is not content to sit around waiting for people to come to him.:good

    Hope this fight gets made, I'd buy a ticket!

    I think I pretty much said what I meant...**** Kessler, the guy is a joke. And enough with the promoter manager bull, if the guy wanted fights he would have got fights its really that simple.

    Kessler could have fought more often and fought himself out of the deal with Palle...He could have bought out of his deal with Palle...Kessler was happy with Palle until he started getting backlash from the fans for his lack of fighting top level guys and now he is putting it off on Palle. If a guy wants fights he can get fights, now we have all the guys at supermiddle fighting and where the **** is Kessler??? tucked away in the courts still using Palle as protections, when the smoke clear he wil poke his head out and claim once again that he wants to fight everyone, and that everryone is ducking him...

    THE GUY IS A JOKE

    I give Froch credit for putting himself out there and making himself available to fight whoever. He's willing to travel, and willing to take on just about anyone it seems. I have a feeling he's got a little too much confidence in his own record though. I see him getting schooled before too long if he keeps taking on quality opponents.

    I would have to say that just the opposite is true

    If you think Taylor's jab was great in the first half of the fight, just wait to see what Kessler would do the WHOLE dam fight. He could pull a Wladimir and just jab him to death. But I expect Kessler to finish him with right hands.

    A lot of respect to Froch, but Kessler will stop him.

    OK
    I repeat what I posted earlier in this thread.
    WHY the hell do you DA's think Froch is a monster puncher? Calzaghe had 23 KO's in his first 25 fights. Forch only has 20 in his 25 fights.
    So WTF is up with that?
    How can you call one guy a monster puncher and the other who had a higher % in KOs not be 1?

    Froch is a pretty good fighter, tough as nails, deserves all the credit, but he did get his share of luck in his spetacular win vs Taylor.

    I think Kessler is about the same caliber as Taylor, probably a little better, but not much, only that he saw what happened in that fight and now would come completelly aware of what could happen. Froch was already the underdog against Taylor, for obvious reasons, and against Kessler he would be even lower as an underdog.

    If Froch is serious about his desire to face Kessler next, I'm pretty sure Kessler would be very willing to do it, considering his current poor options. Somebody just need to make that first phone call.
