Comments Thread For: Kessler: I Want To Show I'm Better in Froch's Country

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Carl Froch has promised "an unbelievable, fantastic, phenomenal, vicious, brutal, barbaric fight" when he clashes with old rival Mikkel Kessler on Saturday.

The pair meet in a hugely-anticipated world super-middleweight title rematch at the O2 Arena in London this weekend, three years after their epic scrap in Kessler's native Denmark when the home fighter won a unanimous decision.

This time around IBF champion Froch is in better form, having become a three-time world champion, while Kessler - who holds the lesser WBA 'regular' title - has endured a more turbulent time, retiring with an eye injury before returning to the ring with three fights.

The Nottingham man insists the rematch will be every bit as thrilling as their first fight.

"This will be one not to miss," he told Press Association Sport. "It's going to be an unbelievable, fantastic, phenomenal, vicious, brutal, barbaric fight and one I'm going to win.

the win had everything to do with Denmark
it was close, but Froch edged him
Froch won't need biased judging to get a decision
he'll bring more heat than Kessler and he'll be fueled by the crowd
expecting a war where Froch wins with greater activity and better chin

Have to disagree with u Jack. From my viewpoint Kessler stepped on the gas in the championship rounds to secure a close but correct decision. The one scorecard was a homer but the others had it right. I like them both but think Mikkel is going to get him again. Surprised Ward is so confident in Froch.

Its going to be a tremendous fight. Kessler always comes to fight and I see no reason why he cannot win.

WAR Kessler.

If Froch got robbed in Denmark, than Dirrell absolutely got robbed in UK. Your call. All I know is I hope Froch doesn't even bother going after a second Ward fight. That was an utter embarrassment for Froch and target practice for Ward.
