It beats me how some people will argue: "Dirrell ran" "It was a close fight"... It's like people totally bought what Froch himself said after the fight! When asked why he was hitting him in the back of the head repeatedly he said "I hit what was there to be hit" and people bought that too! So if the nut sac is more available, should boxers then go for that instead?
kessler will have an easy time with froch,,,trust me. kessler is a very good counter-puncher with very good power. this will be the biggest puncher froch has faced in his pro career. but power will not be the only reason froch will be stopped, its how their styles matchup. you have froch, a very unorthodox awkward power puncher who throws unorthodox punches that leave him wide open. you have kessler, a fighter that counters your mistakes with precise timing. specifically withy the uppercut. also has a great 1-2. what i see happening is froch lunges in like he always does and will be caught with several punches and will ultimately be stopped. i gurantee you this fight ends early. froch is to wide open andi dont think he has the chin to stand up to what kessler has to offer like andrade did i expect froch to get dropped by an uppercut early..he will be hurt but will get up and fight back because he has alot of heart..but will be ultimately brutally TKOed. he leaves to many oppenings for the precise counter-puncher, kessler.
Yes, Froch lunges in a lot and leaves himself off balance and wide open to be hit. However, I think his chin is good enough to with stand the heat for at least four rounds. I think early on, Kessler will be finding his range and throwing a lot of jabs, with more right hands to come later. If anything, he'll be stopped later in the fight, IMO.
Also, Kessler landing the uppercut was supposed to stop Ward from coming in. He never threw it that I can recall. That punch was thrown around a lot due to Calzaghe getting stunned by it and he used it a bit against Andrade. He'll have to implement it more in this fight.
