Kessler beat Froch in an epic fight. He faces Green next. How do you guys have it? I don´t really know Green to be honest, but will be looking forward to hearing what you guys think.
Kessler looked pretty old, and Green sucks but he can punch and has fast hands... so it should be an interesting fight. But then again... Green's chin isnt nearly as good as Froch's, so you have to favor Mikkel. Where are they fighting at?
Kessler needs to get a bit more sharp again if he wants to win super-six. His fight with Froch was a terrific war, he really gave all he had in heart to get back in the mix! But he missed many big shots and sometimes looked old! But definately a good comeback for Kess I do think Green will be more easy for him than Dirrell and Abraham! That being based on Green as super-six underdog. To be honest i dont know how good Green is these days
Kessler will Ko him inside 6 rounds but I'm not sure if Green is still in the supersix after Ward gives him a beating in june
After top 2 fights, vs Ward and Froch, Kessler inactive is gone.. Kessler will improve against Green.. He is in shape and sharp.. Kessler is getting the touch back slowly after each top fight
Yeah he's getting better and better my man Kessler....but he also needs to if he wan't to win the tourny :bbb Ward fight - Mikkel got a beating, but get into the tempo i Championship fights Froch fight - Mikkel's heart/workrate was back Green - Hopefully he'll find his target with the big shots
Yep. But he should never have stepped down after the Calzaghe loss! If he stayed on fighting top boxers instead of going for that crappy WBA title and the C oponents who came along with it, the Ward fight would never have been such a mess.. But atleast it wake-up fight for him! Very happy his getting the touch back now
Hhhhmm haven't seen much of Green....but I'm sure Kessler wouldn't mind getting his WBA belt as well :bbb
Last night we saw 2 guys with bad footwork, no defense, poor coordination and not the power to really put the other on the canvas. Makes for good action. Good fight, I thought Kessler took it, Froch was too lacadaisical seemed to be waiting for the KO that never came. I had Kessler winning 115-113. It was a clear victory IMO and no excuses for Froch. What I know after tonight is that neither man will win this. Boxers like Dirrell and Ward will be too slick for these guys. Sadly having Jermain Taylor in this tourament is going to cause a massive injustice. I think Froch beats Abraham because the home fighter wins that. This will be another war and the hometown fighter has a massive advantage and I think Froch takes this. Ward will beat Green easy (5-6 rounds on the cards) and will then beat Dirrell in a close fight. I just don't believe Dirrell truly believes he can beat Ward. The only way Ward losses this fight 1) if these guys have a gentlemans agreement as they are good mates outside of boxing but we have to assume all will be done fairly. 2) If the hunger is not there for Ward after already qualifying and he doesnt take this as serious as he should. Again I would be surprised but the above reasons will stop me ploughing in on Ward. I have him +1000 pre tournament (posted on this site) and that right now looks like pure gold. Kessler will beat Green last fight. I really think Allanm Green belongs with the Bika's, Miranda's and Andrade's of this world. One notch down below elite level. Its then Lucian Butes no partcipation will be crucial as AA will get into the semi finals after winning just one fight! against a guy that should never been in the tournament. Dirrell who in my opinion beat Froch will be out and thats just wrong. The semi's will be Ward v Abraham and Kessler v Froch. And thats wrong as Dirrell should be there and won't be. Having a past it bum like Taylor in from the start has ruined what otherwise is a great idea. I would like to know what Happens if we have 3 already qualified and 2 others on 2 points. How is the last spot determined.. Sorry got carried away there. Green will get BADLY exposed in this tourney
