Froch vs Kessler Likely Heading To Denmark on March 6

[Hitman932]

Carl Froch is ******ed if he thinks he can sell 35,000 tickets.

I think this will be a one-sided fight to be honest based on the style matchup. We've seen how vulnerable Froch is to straight rights & lefts and the 1-2 is Kessler's bread and butter. He'd basically be playing right into Kessler's strengths. Froch might still have a puncher's chance but he doesn't bring to the ring 1/2 of the arsenal of Calzaghe or Ward.

Kessler will be much more in this fight than yesterday; froch uses next to no head or upper body movement, moves like he's wading through cement, telegraphs his snails pace punches and compeltely lacks any finesse or pure technical ability (i'm being proper harsh there but its true, to be fair).

Kessler will be landing more often and earlier in the fight. Who knows how it will go but Kesller WILL be getting his punches off and will be simply having more success than last night.

[ShatteredGlass]

I thought Kessler got exposed last night.

Lets not forget guys, who could have picked the slow, limited likes of robin reid or sakio bika giving calzaghe problems.

Is kessler near fast enough to avoid being hit by froch? is his chin good enough to take a beating. How is he mentally after that loss?

who knows, but saying Kessler obviously wins is a little short sighted imo.

The cobra vs the Dane ..should be an interesting matchup, maybe the fight last nite will open the eyes of kessler and see that this tournament won't be easy like he thought ward was going to be.I'm pretty sure he didn't expect ward to give him a TRUE BOXING lesson, not saying froch is anywhere near as skilled as ward, but just tournanament overall since he was the 1st seed.then look on the cobras side of this , will the Dane make him look like a garden snake or can froch build more confidence and see that kessler mite be a little too vulnerable and put extreme pressure on him..one things for sure froch has got the best looking chick out of all the females the boxers bring to the fights .hope showtime shows a lot of views of her at ringside like they did in the dirrel fight.Just for it being in hometown of the Dane , got to go with early prediction of the Dane in UD..

People think Froch sucks so badly because he has just had two fights with guys who he was tailor mad for, he ko'd one of them anyway and managed to get a dubious decision against the other, you may think this sounds silly but Abraham and Kessler are not as bad style match ups as Taylor and Direll was.

Froch toughed out the fight with Taylor , even though taylor had it til the end , he just ran out gas.froch is a super slow fighter in my opinion.even though Dirrell was running too much for my liking and kind of was trying to sneak a victory by not just getting on his bicycle but getting on his motorcycle .I still thought Dirrel won that fight.

I thought Direll won too, but here is a direct quote from the Ring magazine prior to the fight

Froch vs Direll: Outcome

Froch's agression forces Direll to fight on the back foot, can Direll win a decision in Nottingham this way? No.

Result Froch by Decision.

See, Direll should have known better and been more agressive.

That was a lack of expierence on his part and his very green corner ..he should definately know to not put it the judges hands..still don't know if he learned from it..wait to see on his future fights away from the US..
