Unbeaten Carl "The Cobra" Froch (23-0, 19KOs) knows that he will never land his dream fight with Joe Calzaghe, instead he's set his sights on another big opponent - WBA super middleweight champ Mikkel Kessler (40-1, 30KOs). Kessler has a fight on October 25 with Danilo Haussler. Froch would like more than anything to face Kessler in the near future.
"Hopefully Kessler gets the win as that is one man I would like to fight. The Dane has excellent strength, a good attitude and, being naturally left-handed has a great orthodox jab. I have noticed him being hurt in his last couple of fights with a body shot by Calzaghe, and a heavy right hand off Sartison shook him to his boots," Froch wrote in the Evening Post.
Aside from his body work, Froch says that he would have too many angles for Kessler. He predicts the Dane would get confused from the angles, and then he would put on the heat and put Kessler to sleep.
"Apart from my famous uppercut, the liver shot and right hand around the guard are my bread and butter," Froch said. "I think Kessler would start brightly but would be puzzled by my angles and then before he knew it, would be temporarily put to sleep like an old Great Dane dog – although I can't promise it will be as painless as if it's done at the vets!
