    Buncey thinks so and his boxing podcast is back to look at this weekend's Super Six fight between Carl Froch and Mikkel Kessler.

    Buncey is with Lee Phelps to look at that and Mayweather Jr v Mosley, Adamek v Arreola and Prizefighter: The Cruiserweights.

    Plus they talk Edwin Valero, Big Aud, why the Super Six hasn't caught the public's imagination and Buncey's fav weight division.

    Skybet are the only ones with odds currently available on knockdowns.....

    For the three to get off the canvas to win, you can get 305/1 :hey

    any idea what Buncey is refering to with the whole 'cryptic' things going on in the Froch/kessler fight?

    Froch delayed going to denmark for a day i think for "personal reasons" even though there was a private jet waiting for him does sound a bit dodgy like.

    just looking at Lewis's last 5 fights ... Tua, Rahman, Rahman, Tyson, Klitschko - not bad.

    187 wins and 9 losses between them at that time.

    It's still hard to assess Dirrell overall. He looked great against Abraham until the ninth and then the Armenian started to catch him. Without the DQ, who's to say he wouldn't have been knocked out? We'll never know. Plus he looked rotten against Froch.

    Taylor looked excellent for 2/3 of their fight, but less so against Abraham where he seemed a spent bullet. I think, if he was shot, it was Froch that finished him off.

    Pascal's a very very good win looking at the Haitian's recent performances. But he was being outboxed by Froch. We'll see how he looks against Dawson.

    Based on simple merit, it's an excellent record of opposition since stepping up to championship class. With Kessler added win or lose, I think it's one of the best out there.

    Em... read the last paragraph of my post - I think it's one of the best. Add Kessler in and you've got a sterling world-class record. I agree with Bunce.
