    This looks about right to me, I may have previously put Kessler too short (I'll go with this, ignore my other comments).

    I can't see Kessler being much closer to evens and his defeat has taken the edge off a shorter price.

    Anything more for Kessler is going to start looking seriously tempting, imo.

    5/2 on Froch would be an attactive price but after Saturday,as mentioned earlier on,it might be 5/6 a head in which case I would fancy the Viking.
    Anything near evens for Kessler would be a great bet.

    Disapointed to hear Kessler never sparred with southpaw fighters for his fight with Ward. Must've been common knowledge before the commentator was talking about it.Not that it would have made any difference,Ward was too inteligent for Kessler,Froch wont be.

    Will say tho,I think the fight will be more competitive than I first thought...hope Saturday didn't take too much from Kessler.

    OK, ignore all my other predictions, I've change my mind- yet again, this is my final choice (the others don't now count).

    Kessler, imo, will be about 1.67 (whatever that is in fractional odds) with high street bookies.

    I'm sticking with that, that's my final prediction!!

    :lol: :good

    We'll see, I'll go as close to evens across the board. Like 5/6 each way, differing slightly bookie to bookie.

    Well I had Kessler a fair bit shorter than he is :-(

    Froch is 5/6 and Kessler is 5/6 with Sky bet.

    They tend to not always always offer the best odds so I should imagine you will possibly be able to get them a little longer come the time. Kessler looks tempting to me.

    Its going to be a great fight,Kessler will have to bring his A game or his career as an elite fighter will be over.

    Hopefully he is 100 percent and ready to go...

    that being said,I'd take 5/6 on Kessler if he was wearing an eye patch!!!

    Skybet are usually middle of the market, always better than William Hill.

    I'd have expected Kessler to be around 4/6, even with the Ward loss.

    How about stoppage/points?
