    I do think his jab right hand combo will work. Kessler isn't very hard to hit.

    Froch hasn't got a granite chin imo but it is very good.

    Abraham has one punch knockout power where Froch needs to accumulate punishment to score knockouts. Froch is a good puncher though, the second best in the tourney imo.
    Youre right, he doesnt have a granite chin, but he has the heart to always pick himself up and carry on
    Froch vs Abraham=foty
    Kessler vs Froch outcome is either:
    Kessler by UD
    Froch by late ko

      Froch's got a ton of heart. no doubt about that.

      Froch - Abraham is more likely to be KO of the year imo.

      Agree on your Froch/Kessler outcomes also.

        I haven't seen enough of his footage to genuinely appreciate Froch. He does have good hustle though. I don't know about his boxing skills though.

          Closer to the fight, we will have to place a bet

          I can't see Froch winning by UD in Denmark, so these have to be the most likely outcomes imo. Hopefully Froch pulls it off.

              Yep, sure will.

              I agree on Froch not getting a decision in Denmark, unless he is completely dominant which isn't likely.

              If Froch does stop Kessler, it will be another come from behind KO from Froch.

              I'm actually really excited for this fight. It should be interesting to see what Kessler has left after his one sided loss to Ward and it will show us how good Froch really is. Stylistically it makes for a really good fight also.

                    You know if he beats Kessler and Abraham he will have a resume equal to Calzaghe's, within his first 5 defences.
