Carl Froch on fighting Kessler

(The rest of the interview can be found at FH) FH: With Mikkel Kessler and Arthur Abraham left for you to fight, are you at an advantage having seen them lose? Froch: They're going to be like wounded rabbits and they're going to come out fighting. They've got everything to lose. Especially Kessler in this next fight, he's just lost his world title. Now, he's got a straight shot at the WBC world title, which is not necessarily how it should be. But the tournament says that's how it should be, and he's also fighting in his own back yard. It's worked out in his advantage, but the harsh reality is that he's just been beat, and he's been beat quite badly. He's just been outclassed. Now, I know that he got head-butted, but the fact of the matter is that he didn't win a round in that fight. He got outclassed and beaten, and Andre Ward's not Roy Jones Jr. or Sugar Ray Leonard. Ward's a decent fighter, but not the best fighter I've ever seen. He's just a good fighter, and he's alright. He's quite ordinary, actually, but he beat Kessler comfortably. So Kessler comes into this fight beaten and dejected. Does he really think that he's going to win the WBC title over the undefeated, reigning, defending knockout specialist, Carl Froch? If he thinks that, then he's mad. He's going to have a swing-off for six or seven rounds, but the harsh reality will set in when he starts getting hit, and I'm still there punching him back and hitting him with body shots and shots he's never been hit with before. I'll still be there, looking him in the eye. And when he sees that mental stregth and that belief and that will to win, will he have what it takes and will he have it left in the tank? He's had a long career, Kessler, with over 40 fights, and I think that he's had his day. I'll probably be the finishing of him, to be honest. Kessler's not going to be easy, and he'll mean business, coming up on his last hurrah. He'll have a real go, but I'm looking forward to getting back in there and showing everybody why I'm undefeated and why I'm the champion. I'm going to beat Kessler, and I'm going to beat Arthur Abraham, and I'm going to win the Super Six.
