Froch-Kessler Clash, Hennessy Wants it in Britain

[ThePunchingBag]

No fighter should get 2 consecutive fights in his home country. It seems a bit unfair.

Mick Hennessy, promoter of WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch, wants to bring his fighter's next clash, with WBA champion Mikkel Kessler, to a venue in Britain. Froch won a close split decision over Andre Dirrell last Saturday in Nottingham. Kessler faces Andre Ward on November 21 in the challenger's backyard of Oakland. Kessler's bout with Froch is more than likely heading to Denmark, where Kessler is a mega-star. [details]

Who genuinely wants to fight in Britain,I guess Germany is fairer than Britain.The only time there was fairness was when Witter fought Bradley.Now Witter and Froch have the same promoter,and they fought in the same venue.

Now you tell me the difference between Froch and Witter apart from weight classes.

Froch can't draw flies in England.

Kessler in Denmark on the other hand.

Agree, that should be the rules for the super 6 tourney. And i doubt the fight would happen here anyway, Froch cannot feel 30,000 people here not yet anyway, Kessler would definitely have a better chance of doing that in Denmark. And since Kessler is fighting Ward in the states he should get home advantage in his next fight.

People always talk about judges giving fighters hometown advantage.Why should Froch get it twice in a row.His Christmas came early when he fought Dirrell,that Santa was on the judges board.

I am a Froch fan, but this should be in Denmark. If this tournament was seeded Kess would be number one,and he is fighting Ward in america, so its only fair,not to mention that Kessler could fill any arena in the country and they wont fuqq the ppv up like they did here.

[Syf]

of course he wants it held in England...

[D-MiZe]

Why would Froch want to lose in front of his home crowd?

[Ryn0]

No way, another robbery.

Should be in Denmark, not like its gonna matter. Kesslers gonna destroy him.

This.

Froch can't draw flies in England.

Kessler in Denmark on the other hand.

That's why 8,000 came to watch him at Nottingham Trent?
