    My fav quote. Talking about how he'll deal with Dirrells speed.

    "Speed's not a problem if you're not there to be hit and it's my job to ensure I'm not there to be hit and keep my guard up and that's what I've been working on in training.”

      Plus, he's so delusional, it's funny.

      someone will go down in flames.
      froch gets hit. but will pull a "prime gatti"
      and wake up mid rounds and beat kess senseless.

        It depends what Kessler turns up. If its the pre-Calzaghe Kessler then you would have to give him credit.. I personally dont feel that Froch could beat that fighter but if its the fighter that got battered by Ward then I dont think it will remove the question marks that are over Frochs head.

        I have a feeling that Kessler's confidence isn't what it was and think he'll lose on points.

          What do you think?
          kessler already got beat by ward

            yeah i'd have to say i'll be just a little impressed if he beats kessler, i'll give him real respect when he beats one of more impressive guys in the super 6...dirrell is not a top contender in the super 6 IMO and Froch stole a decision from him, he needs a real heart check

                Maybe you're letting the announcers sway your opinion...from where I was sitting Dirrell put on a boxing clinic mingled with a bit of a marathon escape plan but nonetheless i scored it for dirrell

                    From what i remember every single presenter /analyst on 'primetime' tv channel who screened the fight and most sportswriters...had Froch losing by a few rounds

                    Are you sure you didnt get carried away by the crowd and the atmosphere at the time? have you watched it since?

                    live on tv all presenters thought Dirrel had it

                      yeah, froch was really putting a beating on the air. he wasn't trying to hit dirrell, he was purposefully swinging at the air.
