Do you think Froch is ready for more of these?

          Be real. Froch has gotten better since the first fight, a lot better. Kessler has slid. If they fight in any fair situation, Froch will and should be favored to win.
          I understand you are a Kessler fan and root for him, and that is fine, but he is in deep in a rematch with this Carl Froch. Very deep. And he probably won't win.

            This time Kessler is healthy. No doublevision to make him miss as much.

            But it's been a while since he fought the elite, so we'll have to see how much he has left. Then again when was the last time Froch beat an elite fighter? A looong time ago unless you consider Bute to be more than a hypejob.

              I almost feel sorry for the Cobra. A Viking with perfect vision on both eyes! It'll end like this poor bugger!

                  The overwhelming majority of NSB had Kessler as the winner.

                  I'm not surprised at you though. You had Hopkins-Calzaghe 121-106.

                    yeah and people thought calzaghe beat hopkins at first until they watched it again and saw he was smacking air while getting countered. more info=better decision making. froch should have won but yeah it was close. a draw is possible but that's at best for kessler. froch has gotten better. kessler has gotten worse. easy beatdown.

                      Judging happens at ringside. Not in slowmo while wearing a Hopkins cap dude.
