Thread: Mikkel Kessler vs Carl Froch

Who wins this Unification world championship fight??


I will say Kessler by a brutal KO

Ive just had the same conversation with a mate of mine. We still believe Kess is the best super middle in the world regardless what happend last night

Kess IMO has it all . Froch is still learning but what I will say is Froch has a good jaw . He walked through flush shots last night .

This will be a huge fight if it ever comes off .

i think Froch is one of those fighters who seems to always have a bit left in reserve , lets make the fight and see who is the better man.

I doubt that Pascal punches harder than Kessler
Kessler would THRASH Froch like he thrashed Andrade.
Froch has absolutely no chance against Kessler and only a punchers chance and a good punchers chance at that against Taylor

Yep. It's no time to get carried away with Froch, he beat an untested fighter
in a very competitive fight. But he did show very good whiskers coupled with zero defence. I pick Kess on points.

Froch can take a shot that's for sure but with his lack of defense and Mikkel's precision punching I have to take Kess by decision .

Voted Kess on points as Froch has no defence and is a tad too slow at world level, the jabs not bad and his whiskers are elite but I feel Kess will have his number using his better skills.

Yep Kessler by KO. Froch just takes far too much punishment. He would eventually crumble under one of Kessler's bombs. I like the guy though.

I'll second that. I'm actually starting to like Froch. He'd be an underdog against Kess, but he is good enough to share a ring with him, something we didn't know last night. I think he should get Taylor first as I think it's very winnable seeing as he's the bigger man and should be able to take his shots.

I'm not sure he is naturally bigger than Taylor. I just think that Taylor used to really drain himself to make Middleweight.

I'd say Kessler on points, but man that's a tasty fight.

Can you imagine a 2009 with Kessler v Froch and Ricky v Pac?

Who says boxing is dead?

Who are the crackhead who voted for Froch by KO? One has got to be Tam. If anything, Tam, his should prove to you just how overrated Froch is. Pascal is nothing special and he gave Froch all he could handle.

I went with Kessler by points...
I think Kess wins a clear cut decision.

We def. have to see this happen for '09.

Well Kessler want so etablish a name in the US, in order to fight bigger names in US, he first have to face somebody like Sakio Bika, Andre Dirrell, Allan Green or Andre Ward ( All fighter based in US) to qualify for a big fight Anyway I think that would be waste of talent then it is a noname ranked WBA boxer next time. (source is a Danish paper)

Then I would prefer he took Froch out.

Anyway I dont think Kessler will give the bogus WBA title up, in Denmark WBA is ( or was) regarded as the best. So we can look forward to see Kessler in the ring with no-names in the future also

So you're saying that he's planning on copying Calzaghe's career path
