Kessler also gets really badly rocked in the opening round too (08.10 in video)

-watch kessler win tomorrow with a big right hand now :D
How I'd love recovery powers like that though, he carried on like it had never happened, that's very impressive :TU:

Froch handily, Kessler is OK but nothing special - no wonder Bernard Hopkins laughed at Calazghe when he asked him who had he fought and the anwser given to Hopkins was 'Mikkel Kessler'

Kessler looked most hurt when Calzaghe hit his body somewhere near the 8th round in their fight.

Sorry mate - disagree.

Whilst it seems Kessler is past his best - at one time he was perhaps one of the most under rated boxers in the world.

I'm going for Froch to wear him down for a late stoppage, with some shaky moments along the way.

I remember thinking a few years ago that Kessler would school Froch should they clash, Froch has come along way since, he's not a great fighter technically and sometimes ugly to watch but he gets the job done. It's abit like comparing Messi & Rooney.

I'd take Messi everytime, so Kessler to win on points :box:

Don't want to start a new thread. Does anyone know what time they'll hit the ring?

Desperate for Froch to win this one but Kessler has the better fundamentals and I think his jab will give Froch all manner of problems in terms of 'getting off'. I've also been worried about Carl's attitude going into this one - I don't know whether it's just me but he just doesn't see to be in the right mindset.
Couple all of that with home advantage and it's Kessler by wide points decision for me.
