He seems really edgy. Hes been obessed with george groves and reading out diary extracts of knocking him out in sparring to get revenge on him sparring with kessler.
Now he says he would kill kessler if he has to. Look even if this was taken out of context, its stil a sloppy thing to say. Kessler seems a really nice guy, and the beauty of this fight is its such a coin toss it doesnt need any crude publicity to sell this.
Boxing is extremely dangerous sport, and for froch to even jest something like this is poor form. He or Kessler are genuwinly at risk of health in this fight, hes just had a kid, and all this "brutal" and "savage" imo was borderline but "kill" is getting silly now.
I watched on the ropes and roy jones, eubank and Collins sounded like retards after all the beatings they've taken,
Roy is mumbling a little but Eubank and Collins sound perfectly fine, were you sober when you watched the program?
you gotta laugh at people who give out about this I can guarantee Kessler's not bothered by it ... only pansies are gonna be offended by such comments, the real men will think they're hilarious and get hyped up for the fight. So which are you?

Froch seems really on edge. Why say it, just think it. Does he really have to say something to think it??? kesslers a nice guy, this fight potentially is not only career ending but is a fcuking dangerous match up for there future quality of life.
I think considering how good of friends they are, froch could have restrained from the kill lark.

I know Froch is very popular because he comes to fight and he has so much heart and determination. Many like his trash talk as well. I never liked that side of Froch.I think he brags on himself way too much and disrespects his opponents as well. Now instead of saying what a sportsman Kessler is to fight him in England he turns it around and says Kessler is being cheeky to think he could come to Froch's country and win and he is going to make him pay for that. For every one comment from Kessler there are five comments from Froch. Every one of Kessler's comments are respectful of Froch even when he is predicting a win for himself. Kessler is the one who has shown class during the whole buildup for this fight. I hope Kessler wins and I think his chances of winning are good.
He doesn't want to go into the fight too amped because he will be prone to make devastating mistakes.
Last time we saw a top British fighter this hyped up for a mega fight he got KTFO by Pacquiao because he made stupid mistakes.
It's the timing of the comment more than anything.
People overseas won't realise but the country is pretty shook up and preoccupied about the London attack, the last thing they want to hear is people making threats to kill although it clearly wasn't meant literally.
Just read about that on Yahoo
That guy is stupid
Hypes of the fight I see no biggie; I hope nobody thinks he really wants to kill Keesler

Now he says he would kill kessler if he has to.
That's the mindset a fighter should have, it's kill or be killed. Though maybe saying it without being asked about it is a bit too much.
I'm not buying all this hype. I expect Froch to go in there and try to outbox Kessler.
I hope so, because if thinks he's going to be able to "Bute" Kessler it could be his undoing.
Watch the interviews they do together on Sky Sports News man, they really get along well and like each other.
As Froch stated, you learn to hate your opponent during your training camp but it's all just false and an illusion to help you win. Of course he's going to get a little excited and say things out of turn either out of being so hyped for the fight or trying to make people tune in.
Kessler's response on Twitter says everything, he wasn't bothered.
"Carl Froch says he wants to kill me - that's not very polite. :))))"
