Just over a week to go now. Usually our picks on these polls are very accurate. Let the voting commence......

Not much would surprise me in this fight, except early knock outs, I'm very interested in the poll results, I agree they are normally fairly accurate but theres surely going to be a bit of biased voting here, be interested to see poll results on the current scene !

Froch by a close points decision that is not a robbery.

I'm thinking the mostly likely result is Froch on points....

...but I had a dream where Froch got put down and hurt by a big body shot from Kessler. The more I think about it, the more I think Froch might put the accelerator on too much with the pressure/adrenaline from the home crowd and risk getting caught. Kessler seemed to hurt Carl at times in the first fight, so who knows?

Both fighters will want to win by KO and I reckon the atmosphere will be incredible. I say it won't go the distance - Boom! Who wins I haven't got a clue!

ha, don't knock it. the friday night before Pacquiao - De la Hoya i had a dream which predicted with eery accuracy the way Pac would be skating around DLH, touching him up at will and skating out of range.

I mentioned it on a boxing forum and I got laughed at, too.

Froch I think on points, fairly comfortable. I don't like the looks of Kessler from the clips of him in training. He looks a lot slower than before, perhaps the training clips are misleading.

I think this could go either way if i'm honest I wouldn't be surprised except the early knockout as said above. I just have a sneaky feeling that Froch causes a late stoppage on Kessler.

I think that Froch is strong, durable and fit and Kessler doesnt look the same fighter that he once was. He got put down by a standard Allan Green. He he beat a poor Magee in his last couple of fights. Where as Froch destroyed Bute inside 5 rounds and fought a piss poor Yusaf Mack. I dont know it could go either way. im just buzzing for it.

I'm going for a draw. Its so close to call and a lot of the rounds can go either way.

A third match would make sense for both parties as Ward or retirement beckons!
