I'd pay to watch this.

Likewise. We'll see what happens during the tourney..

I see Froch winning this, but the pressure is going to be on Froch BIGTIME. One thing's certain, he's not going to be able to say **** about Calzaghe if he loses this bout. Not a damn thing. Still, it's stiff competition, and I wouldn't think it to be decisive for either fighter. I wouldn't think less of the loser after this bout, whomever it may be. If Froch gets the KO, it will be well deserved considering Kess is a monster. That said, Froch's KO rate is 80%, so he's certainly got a lot of confidence in his punch, and that'll be important. Not only that, but as soon as he stopped fighting like a ****head against Taylor, he started winning not only rounds but the whole match.

I don't. This will be Froch's first loss, and it'll be by a KO. Kessler's right hand is much heavier than Taylor's, faster, and apparently has a stealth based laser guidance system integrated.

Kessler by KO before 7.

Agree Kessler TKO.

**D-MiZe** · 07-30-2009, 08:15 AM

Kessler won't TKO Froch.

He'll beat him by UD/SD though.

**Gojira** · 07-30-2009, 08:19 AM

Froch by decapitation.

**Grand Champ** · 07-30-2009, 08:23 AM

Kessler by ****.

The outcome of this fight is going to depend on how Kessler's lack of decent opposition/ layoffs etc post Calzaghe has affected him. Froch might be easy to hit, but he is no mug and is going to win if Kessler isnt 100%. Agree with the TS about what kind of fight we can expect to see!
