    That loss was not controversial.

    I've always thought that Kessler-Froch II would be made next summer at City Fround, Nottingham. Now that Froch apparently is willing to pay Kessler I dont think anything but injuries could prevent the fight from happening. Not even losses to either fighter in their next fight.

    Hell just sign for a trilogy!

    But hopefully Ward steps up and travels to Denmark first.

      Mikkel Kessler does not like tough fights.

          It's been a while since I've seen the fight but I thought Froch got the best of Kessler. I wasn't pissed that Kessler got the nod because it was a close, tough fight. A rematch is definitely called for. I hope it happens soon. I definitely think Froch wins the rematch.

            The reason for Kessler's uncharacteristic lack of precision was the eyeinjury that gave him doublevision when looking down or taking a punch. With 20/20 vision I reckon Froch will be stopped. Hell he was badly wobbled last time.

              Agree with all of that..

                Both Froch v Dirrell plus Kessler v Froch were close fights which could have gone either way.

                Close fights are great but nowadays whiny babies like to scream robbery.

                Still not sure how much Kessler has left. Would like to see him fight again soon.

                  That's why he wants it there.

                  I hope Mack beats him, but it's not going to happen.
                  Why the about turn on Froch, I thought you were a fan. Now you want Mack of all people to beat him. Okay...

                  Anyway, I think Kessler beat Froch in their first meeting as he was more active in the middle rounds, it was a tough fight though.

                  I don't think Kessler is completely averse to a rematch either, he mentioned it in a recent interview with Brian Magee.

                    This is spot on. I gave the first fight to Dirrell but wasn't surprised or annoyed by Froch being given the nod. It was that close. The same goes for the Froch/Kessler fight, totally agree with the outcome of this one but I wouldn't really argue with someone who said they thought Froch had won.

                    Froch v Kessler II needs to happen and with Froch being a no nonsense warrior willing to take the short end of the bargain, I see no reason for Kessler to agree, unless this is all BS.

                      I have little doubt that Froch and Kessler are on very different trajectories with their careers. Froch has improved, and Kessler is on the decline. I picked The Viking Warrior the first time around, but I think Froch gets the nod on the cards if they rematch.
