Who punches harder, Kessler or Froch?

And what would you base that on? Please name us a top quality opponent Kessler has knocked out recently? Hmm?

Not again! He has knocked out a few top names in his division, or stopped them. He knocked out Markus Beyer, stopped Eric Lucas, Manny Siaca and Julio Cesar Green. And this thread isn't about who he or Froch beat, it's about who is a better puncher!

Kessler also KO'd Craig Cummings, who knocked down Steve Collins before.

One of the sweetest finishes in a long time (from the start):

Thanks for that sweet clip. What I respect about Kessler is that he has the knockout power but sometimes seems to prefer to use his boxing skills to win the fights rather than crude power, like Froch. I'm not saying Froch can't box, but he does rely on his power more than Kessler.

Wtf was that red k for catalinul??!

Froch has more raw power but Kessler throws the crisper,faster,shorter punches and he has good pop himself.

Overall Kessler.

spot on mate
frochs punching technique is pretty erratic

[Kris Silver]

Both pretty similar power, difficult to say off hand but Froch slugs more than Kessler. Kesslers more snappy so full flush shots Mikkels may well be harder, plus it's more likely to land.

So...as for how Froch beats Kessler I just do not know.

Even they're chins are similar, though Froch probs just takes that one.

Similar power, Kessler has better accuracy.

Similar power, Kessler has better accuracy.

Me too. And he will! Lol, this reply didn't have much sense. Wasn't aware that you had edited your post in the meantime!
