Kessler vs Froch: Carl Vows "I'm Knocking Mikkel Out"

[Peder]

froch isnt all that but kessler is waaaaaaaay overrated. froch has a good chance, their both ordinary. except froch has the better resume.

taylor, dirrell, pascal > beyer, mundine, andrade

LMAO.

Pascal hasn't done anything at 168 - ever!!
Taylor was a shadow of his ows self, and still had a point lead over Froch.
Beat Dirrell with the smallest margin possible - and who has he beat?

Beyer - WBC champ at the time, Mundine and undefeated Andrade all got blown away.

Taylor (when Froch fought him), Dirrell, Pascal < Siaka(WBA), Lucas, Sartison

well u were supposed to knock out dirrell too and look how that turned out.

Kessler has shown an iron chin. Froch hasn't. His chin is probably the most overrated thing about him. He was down against Taylor and was buzzed several times by Dirrell, who isn't a huge puncher. If anyone gets KO'd, it's Froch. I won't even talk about Kessler's handspeed and superior combo punching.

carl is gonna get beat up.

Once he was slightly stunned for a second.....you guys are grossly underrating mental status in regards to boxing. I will say it is as important as the ability and training itself.....what was the difference between Taylor and Froch? I say it was that one guy has the ideal mental state for a fighter and one does not.....on paper Taylor should have beaten him, so should Pascal and Dirrell but all 3 failed.

Only thing is, with Kessler's style Froch isn't gonna make it far if he does get hurt again. Kessler will finish him undoubtedly as he isn't an idiot like Taylor and isn't scared to go all out like Dirrell. Kessler's style is just all wrong for Froch.

Do you watch boxing .... ? I like Froch a lot - so different to the last 2 decades of US-fighters. Why -because Froch want to fights the best - and thats not the Us-fighters !!

Wasn't Dirrell supposed to fight? Look how that turned out.

Kessler though more skilled has not had his psychology tested....Joe beat him but due to hand injury issues can't crack, Froch can and he will take Kess to a place he better be ready to go. If Kessler is prepared to go there and is mentally tough he should win but I have not seen him tested in that area yet....if Froch does go down for the count its going to have to be a Pac/Hatton type ko....Froch will not quit fighting and give in and its what has won me over about him inspite of his lack of natural ability.

I don't agree. He was the betting favorite against Pascal and Dirrell. He dissapointed a lot of people by only getting a SD in the last one.

Froch tries to boost his resume with talk, don't believe it. It all comes down to his Calzaghe obsession.

If Calzaghe, after the Jones fight, tried to land a fight with either Taylor (1-2 in his last 3), Pascal or Dirrell, he would have been accused of all kinds of ****. Right?
