Kessler vs. Froch

froch come forward in a straight line, with his hands around his waist, rocking his left arm twice before flicking out his jab, and doesnt move his head at all.

kessler hates/can't fight on the inside but that's not going to be an issue against froch. his 1-2 is gonna land all night since it will be very hard for him to miss considering how froch fights. on top of that, as bad as kess got beat, he took a beating and wasnt hurt and wasnt close to quitting. he was getting headbutted all night on top of that. i don't see froch landing enough to stop him.

before the ward fight i would have said this was going to be a massacre...kessler is still gonna win but it may be closer than i once thought.

 

I think Froch will smash Kessler they are very similar stand straight as sticks and are robotic but Froch is Dynamic even though he looks like **** he is tough rugged and will bring it ....Kessler looks the more fragile one. tHIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN A WHILE FROCH HAS FACED A STIFF HE CAN RUN WITH AND HE IS THE ONE IMPROVING! iTS NOT A SURE THING BUT THIS ONE SHOULD BE A WAR!

 

:good right on there. you gotta love froch b/c he will fight anyone and will come forward regardless. this may be his undoing against kessler but neither guy is gonna quit. should be very entertaining

 

Froch will Ko kessler early on rounds 2-5 I am 100% confident of this.

 

its a tough fight but lotta people underestimating Froch.​

There was a reason why dirrell was hugging,holding,survival & saftey 1st tactics when he fought Froch.​

Anyway, we'll see come march/april next year.​

+Kudos to Froch for facing the toughest in this super6 in Kessler & Abrahams. :good​

 

dont be fooled by the SOG schooling.

froch is the complete opposite type of fighter and based on styles kessler has the advantage. this fight will be kinda like kessler-andrade.

robo-kess by UD.

 

I said that this tournament would expose Kessler, and Ward has set the ball rolling. The fact that Froch is a limited boxer will just re-emphasis this once he beats Kessler.

 

Kessler

 

Kessler. The Ward fight should be a wake up call. Plus Froch', isn't even close to being slick, skilled, and fast as Ward. In the end, styles make fight and Froch's style is tailor-made for Kessler.

 

Surprised at so many people picking Froch. If there's closish odds I'm throwing a nice bet on Kessler. I think Ward-Kessler was a great fighter's coming out party against a good fighter, where the style and gameplan of Ward was way too much for Kessler resulting in a one-sided fight.

Froch is much slower than Ward. Kessler's two losses are to Ward and Calzaghe- both guys' speed and ability to throw alot of punches at different angles caused Kessler problems. I don't think Froch is going to be able to land with enough regularity to hurt Kessler. He has power, but I can see Mikkel taking a step backward and catching alot of those wide hayemakers with his gloves. Unless Froch can consistently back Kessler up, I see Mikkel easily landing the more accurate shots on Froch's chin. Whether by KO or points I'm picking Kessler on this one.

 

Froch will smash Kessler. I didn't see any fight in Kessler at all in the Ward fight. I don't know if fighting in the US scared the holy crap out of him but it looked like he didn't want to fight. Maybe that long lay off and fighting weak competition has damaged him. Very similar to what happened to Jermain Taylor.

 

I think Kessler will be motivated and beat up on Froch. I just don't think Froch has the skills. That being said, he has plenty of chin and will likely stand toe to toe so it should be a good fight. I just think MK is technically better vs a guy like Froch.
