Froch vs Kessler/AA

It's hard to write Froch off. He was suppposed to lose to slick and quick fighters like Pascal, Taylor, and Dirrell, yet he managed to find a way to beat all three of them. Last nights fight was very, very close, and I couldn't have argued if the result went the other way, but IMO Froch won the matchup.
Kessler will be Froch's hardest test to date, but I have a feeling Kessler's easy paced, deliberate, technical style will suit Froch better than the styles of his last three opponents. Froch struggles with speed and is reluctant to throw his big right hand against quick handed fighters, but he won't have to worry about that against Kessler. I can invisage a bright start from Froch, putting Kessler under pressure with his jab and lead right hand. However, once Kessler has warmed up to the fight, and starts landing big, accurate, flush shots on his unguarded chin, Froch will probably be stopped late on in the fight. He has a great chin, but he can be hurt, and Kessler will expose that.

Yes, why not?... To beat Carl Froch, you have to rip up the text book and overpower him.. If they try to box, they'll lose..Comment

Froch looked to be much physically stronger than Dirrell. I dont believe he will have that same advantage over AA or Kess. They both also hit harder than Dirrell who was able to stagger Frock, Im pretty sure Kessler KOs Froch and give AA a good shot at it as well.Comment
