The rematch, Carl Froch - Mikkel Kessler 2 fight chat thread - Warriors Call !!!

2-0 Froch. These guys have definitely gone in different directions since the last fight. Kessler looks like he's lost a step.

Froch won second.

Kesslers legs having disagreements in 2nd and he looks all over the map. Frochs jab on point

Agreed 2-0

Wouldn't write Kessler off yet.

Y'know, I called Froch in 7 or 8, but the way this is goin', I don't think Kessler gets past 5.

Thing is Kessler showed early that he could get under it with the right to t he body. SHould use that more.

Froch should stick to the left hand and vary it a bit more.

Now i know why Kessler is concentrating so much on defense. His punch resistance is not the same. It's very poor. He's reacting every time he gets hit solid. Not a good sign for him

No legs

I don't say this flip...but Kessler looks like a ko waiting to happen here

Froch is leaving some openings where I feel like hte old Kessler would have been able to counter him, but Kessler can't pull the trigged.

Calzaghe is a better dancer than froch.

Still see it going 12 rounds as froch is not a massive puncher.

2-0-1 even Carl

3-0 Froch. Kessler can't get him to go backwards like he did last time.
