    Comments Thread For: Carl Froch-Mikkel Kessler: The Pre-Super Six Report Card

    By Cliff Rold - Appearing sometimes less refined than the rest of the field, rugged Brit Carl Froch entered the “Super Six” as one of the underdogs. Saturday, he could leave Denmark as the tournament leader. To do so, he’ll have to contend with a hostile crowd and a potentially desperate former champion.

    Desperate because it wasn’t long ago Mikkel Kessler was considered the man to beat in the field. A beating at the hands of Andre Ward in the opening round changed perceptions. If Kessler wants to be considered a serious threat to win through what would demand five contests, he can’t take a second straight loss to kick things off. [Click Here To Read More]

      I think Froch is clearly the less skilled fighter but the guy has got an incredible confidence and hasnt yet learned how to lose. This will be a great fight. Looking forward to it should be action packed too bad Ward Green was postponed woulda been a great double header.

              If Froch doesn't shake Kessler early, the Dane will build enough confidence to rack up the rounds to a decision. Froch will finish the fight better, so he has to stop Mikkel in order for a win. I just don't see the cards favouring Froch, even in close rounds. Mikkel will take the first, no doubt, but Carl needs to break his confidence real early.

                Froch has to win by ko, cause he aint getting the nod on the cards.
                The last few fights most have picked against him but hes proven them wrong, hope he does it again.

                  Unless Froch gets really rough and Kessler just folds, I dont see how Kessler loses this one. I have him by knockout late. But who knows, Froch finds a way.

                    How can Froch have a B for intangibles?

                    I guess peoples perception of what the intangibles actually are must differ. In terms of will-power, heart, and sheer bloody-mindedness, nobody comes close to the Cobra in the Super 6.
