I was expecting it to be seen as pickem fight on these boards but Froch went from completely being counted out in the Bute fight to being a big favorite vs Kessler
I think kessler Ko is the least likely outcome, he never looked like stopping froth the first time and has gone downhill since then whereas froch has gotten better
Agree with this, I think Froch wins clearly this time around.
Am I the only one who thought kessler looked dreadful against green?
Froch ud small chance tko
I thought so too, although he did step up when it got tough. He's already proven and I don't want to hold it against him because he's continues to fight back, but it might not be in his control. I said b4 that fight that I wasn't convinced he could see or react fast enough to right hands 100% anymore because of that eye. Then he goes out and gets dropped hard by one in the 1st round. The guy he fought before Green was landing flush rights too, he just had no power. Green himself isn't even known for his right necessarily so seeing him caught like that early is still something I keep in mind when watching Mikkel fight.
Outside of the Codrington KO, Green is known to blow opportunities in fights....he should gone for the kill when he had Kessler hurt. If Froch even thinks he see's Kessler trip on his shoelace, he will be all over him...and froch punches hard with both hands. this might be a totally different fight now. Kessler's chin isn't bad but if getting hit flush at this level is hard to overcome
i guess the good thing for Kessler is that Froch is slow and wide enough to give him a little extra time to see the shots coming which could help him adapt to where he can be effective himself. He did it pretty quickly against Green but I just don't think he can do it for the whole fight against Carl this time....i guess I will pick Froch late TKO.
Only two outcomes: Kessler KO or Froch UD. I say Kessler stops Froch late in a great fight.
I think Froch by KO has to be considered a possible outcome.
Only if it's close.
I think Froch stops him this time. He has more to prove after the last time and he is fighting with the crowd behind him.
I don't think Kessler is the same fighter any more either. The Ward headbutts and the fight with Froch have taken their toll.
I agree that eye injury took lot of him this could be Kessler's last fight if it ends in a KO
Of course Froch will get the D. Kessler better have a gameplan to score a KO.

I didn't think he looked bad remember he is not very active so some ring rust is to be expected the 1st couple of rounds.
obviously he is not the same fighter but still a Top3 SMW
Of course Froch will get the D. Kessler better have a gameplan to score a KO.
thats probably what he will try to do and he ends up getting TKO'd I don't know if Kessler can KO Froch I don't see how he wins a close decision either respect Kessler for fighting Froch in his back yard
