    Anyone keen for this one?
    Hopefully there will be a decent livestream of it because I'm keen to see this one.

    Anyway, how do you ****wits see this one unfolding? I see theres a bit of hope for Froch floating about. I myself can't see anything other than a dominant Kessler win with Kessler winning every round along the way.

    Froch just doesn't have the style, and his heart will be his downfall in this one. Kessler wont fade like Taylor did, and he'll keep at him all the time too.

    A great chance for Kessler to get back in the mix of things as Froch's style is built for him to look impressive. Many people say that Kessler's mentally decimated, and well that may just be so (I dont think so just yet) but even if he is, and this is no disrespect to Froch, I still see Kessler winning rather comfortably.

    Kessler to win every round and to stop him in say the 9th. :yep

    Tend to agree.
    Kessler by KO round 10.

    Kess ain't toast yet, the fight with Ward was a wake up call.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Froch wins by stoppage.

    Dunno why, just got this feeling, Kessler is by far the more superior boxer, but Froch just seems to find a way to win, has a huge heart and a good chin.

    I just thing he'll be able to discourage Kessler and will overpower him with his will.

    Just cant see any way at all of how Froch might win this. Kess will land his straight one two's all night. Cant see Froch landing his charging bull uppercuts with Kess' defense.

    On a side note I would much rather have seen Bute replace Taylor....

    Froch KO. And it's going to get ugly for Kess.

    Yeah, my thoughts exactly - I think Froch will pressure Kessler and make him very uncomfortable.

    Kessler to stop Froch in 7 rds. Froch is durable but easy to hit & I think Kessler has the better overall fighting skills & I expect him to land easy & often. I like Froch, he's very tough but I think he falls in this one.

    I concur. I like Froch's gumption and will. He may not be pretty at doing it, but I like the way he get's the job done.

    Kessler at home and motivated after a sloppy performance will really make a statement in this super6 fight.

    Frochs tough but has been down before in fights, i don't think he can hold off Kessler who is the same size as him and have the Danish crowd right behind him.

    The only way Froch wins is by KO ................. If Kessler has even a small percentage of cat in him then there is an opening for Froch. Froch is extremely limited but has a big heart.

    I'll be winning a lot of money on this one.

    I had a dream about this. Kessler lost by DQ.
    Dunno why I thought this. Maybe cos of the Dirrell-Abraham thing, but yeah that's what was in my dream so I'm going for that

    Thats true, they were the boyfriends of the girls that I beat up after a marathon 63 hour sex session. Then me and the girls went back and did it again.
