LONDON -- Mikkel Kessler's super-middleweight rematch against Carl Froch will take place in London in May. In their 2010 fight, Kessler (46-2, 35KOs) won a unanimous points decision in his native Denmark. The new title bout was announced Friday and it will take place at London's O2 Arena on May 25. The 33-year-old Kessler is the WBA champion and has won 46 of his 48 fights - 35 by knockout. Froch (30-2, 22 KO) holds the IBF belt, which the British fighter took off Lucien Bute in May 2011.

Still a tough fight to pick but I'm leaning towards Froch.

This is the type of fight that will cement your legacy, the both have alot on the line

There will be war

Real tough fight to pick and thats what I like about it, a genuine 50/50 fight, although Froch probably has the advantage at home with the crowd.

I hope it goes the full 12 and neither of these guys gets stopped because they both deserve another classic tear up in their video archive and to walk out with their dignity....and we deserve the full 12 rounds of brutality

Can't wait for this

I don't see this fight going the distance. Loser will humbly retire from the sport.

Was looking at getting tickets at a later date when i could sort out transport/hotel for London...Looks as though it almost completley sold out already though. Gutted.

Still, should be a great fight. Can't wait.

Can't wait. War Froch! War Kessler!

[WESS]

True gents looking to bash each others face in. Pulling for Kessler again but I think Froch gets it. Which leaves us to a rubber match later this year (forcing Ward to move up to LHW)?!?!?!?
