Its funny how these type things change. Before the Ward bout id have thought Kessler would be a big big favourite with Froch having a small chance. Even though stylistically it doesnt favour Froch, hes chances just went up in my book. Fighting at home and fighting to stay in the super 6 are big incentives for Kessler to come back(mentally more than anything). Although this isnt an excuse(for what happened Sat night)...im sure Kessler can raise his game from his performance vs Ward...however Froch seems woefully underated by many in any case.
yep no doubt in my mind! This fight will be close! i favor still kessler because he will be more active! but you cant count out froch cause all froch needs is a big counter hook and this fight can change! The man who wants the victory more will win! good luck to both!
initially I though kessler would win easily. but, following his showing versus ward, I am not so sure that he beats froch. foch, although limited, is a tough guy, and is not afraid to mix it up. It should be an excellent scrap, though.
Who's is the biggest puncher Kessler has faced? I can not think of any opponent Kessler has been in with that hits as hard as Froch does.
if kessler can't beat froch then he should hang out with jermain taylor, and just dwell on the days when they meant something to the game.
#You trying to imply that Froch is crap and losing to him would be shameful? Losing to an untested rookie like Ward would be worse than losing to a proven world class/ WBC world champion.
How did he get luck against JT when he knocked him out? Was it lucky punch? He is also beat Pascal who is now a paper champ at LHW. Dirrell deserved to get rapped on the scorecards for running like a ***** and falling over like a girl though out the whole fight.

QUOTE] taylor ran out of gas and was not smart enough to take a knee, and froch just landed a punch. even if taylor took a knee he was winning so much on the score cards, would have had his hand raised. if taylor was willing to take a knee we wouldn't even be talking about this. i'll give you the dirrell fight. in order to win you have beat the champion and take it from him, and dirrell didn't do that. direll showed he's more skilled,and faster than froch. froch beating taylor, was like george foreman beating moore. i wouldn't even compare it to meldrick taylor-chavez because at least that was close.
not when it comes to matching up with froch. stylistically, robo-kess has the advantage. kess-froch will look kinda be like kess-andrade. i got kessler by UD.
