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 voted Kessler by decision, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if he ended it early.

Froch really showed yesterday that his defense is weak, and Kessler will know how to properly expose it.

Kessler will never take the fight. He will be too busy defending his paper title against obscure hobo's whom the WBA ranks as their mandatory.

yeah because that's exactly what someone who comes to Wales to fight one of the best in the world does...

Kessler will fight him if its right, and he will i believe stop him. Froch is ok, some day he maybe even be good, but he will never be anything more than that. He is easy to hit, stuggles when the pace is pushed. He looked shocked and confused when pascal took his best shots early on and hit him back.

If pascal didn't fight like such a muppet, kept a tight defence and stayed focused he could of stolen that, but he caved in towards the end for the stupid fight he was fighting, not because Froch broke him down or is a special fighter. I give Froch credit though, he took some good hits, never give up. But he didn't look great at all.
