once again thanks for these skel
I can never seem to find these on any of the download forums!
Thanks alot.
Thanks Skel, does anyone else think Mikkels trainer is like Mic from rocky? ;D
Decent episode again. Watching that makes me question Froch's will to win. You look at someone like Calzaghe who will really work to win no matter what, with Froch it's always like he is holding something back. He doesn't quite let it all go. It's a 3 punch combo and then time to sit back and admire his beltline. He doesn't adapt and does let rounds slip, but he doesn't need to do that and it makes me think that he has confidence issues. He hurt Kessler a number of times in that fight and kept stepping off the gas and conceding things.
It really is do or die for him against Abraham. If he keeps his head on straight he can work out a decision in that or even stop Abraham, but he just seems so negative to me. "It's in England or I pull out" etc. Quite worrying talk.
....don't throw things at me guys, but i think abraham beats froch's ass. But i'll also be one of the few people at the arena in a couple of weeks that thinks green will win too. So what do i know.
Yeah, I am not big on Froch and he doesn't help you like him. I have tried to like him but the latest 360 episode made took me back. Before his loss he stated that all the home guys won because that was the right guy. Acting like his fight with Dirrell was clear cut with no controversy. But when he lost a close decision it was only a lost because Kessler was home. He sees the homecooking when it works against him but not when it even more clearly worked for him.Quote:

I think this tournament really does give the "any guy can win" thrill. Although I do think Ward wins against Green I would only be shock if Green won by decision. Green knows he has to win to go onto the semifinals and Green knows he has little chance to win by decision. There are very few outcomes I would be shocked with in this tournament.Quote:

That vid was very revealing . A class fight between two warriors but one was clearly a broken man after the decision was announced. Carl apologised to his missus, then the excuses started. He wanted to pull out the press con afterwards but Mcracken told him he better do it cuz there was nothing wrong with him. Then at the press con he said he would pull out the tournament if he doesnt get home advantage next time. His confidence has really been shattered beyond repair. Compare that with Kessler who was joking after the Ward fight and has come back like a true champ. Even Dirrell coped better. Carl seems to have taken defeat worst and he still isnt over it now.
What he needs is a morale booster and a comeback win but instead next up he meets one of the most deadly one punch KO artists in the sport. Carl will have never felt power like he will when he meets Arthur who has sent his last 3 opponents into casualty after the fight.
I know afew people who are like Carl who share similar character traits. Nice once you get to know them but they switch between seriousness and arrogance which is a front to cover their insecurities. Carls mask has totally been destroyed. He said himself after the fight "everything is going to be different now" Carl is more mentally fragile than he makes out.
Good to see Kess enjoying his success after the fight in the club with all the ladies. I think his spot in the finals is secure. In contrast Carl will be looking at retirement after the Abraham fight.
Game I agree mate, Froch seemed a broken man to me, with a kid on the way and he seems very loved up I don't no I sort of got the impression the hunger is not as it once was?? Maybe am a bit harsh but from him in the corner in the seventh saying he is tired to him coming out with the excuses, he just didn't seem the same guy, I think Abraham beats him up I said Froch at first but I have changed my mind after seeing this. Abraham stops him I think.
For all Crals bullshiit, after the fight, he asks McCracken if he did enough to win;D
Then he asks for anasthetic for his stitches and the doctor looks at him like hes a sissy girl;D
At the end, Kessler joking about Frochs slow uppercuts;D

Froch is a whining little bitch. I want to see Abraham decapitate him.
Kessler's 1-2 used to be dynamite. It looks like he's throwing it underwater now.Quote:

He was forcing his work. He was rusty going in against Ward and then was never allowed to settle or get a rythm going because Ward was constantly allowed to grab.Quote:

We will see a more confident and less rusty Kessler. Kessler can still win this;)
Kessler won't be winning this. ;)Quote:

I wouldnt write Kessler off just yet. If the Ward fight was in Denmark, Ward wouldnt be allowed to get away with headbutts and the judges arent gonna give him rounds for holding away from home either. Kessler didnt look great against Carl but he needed that result just to get his confidence back . We can excuse that bad display but beating an unbeaten champ whod beaten Dirrel and Pacsal in recent fights isnt a bad result anyway.
Dirrell vs Ward is going to be interesting cuz whoever wins that will probably win the whole thing. Abraham is the danger man who can KO anyone but can also be outboxed by anyone. Froch unfortunatley is on the way out. He has taken defeat badly and now he's loved up with a child on the way. He will never be the same again. Green is a guy I hope does well but predict he will finish on zero points losing both fights.
Yeah, Froch's attitude since defeat seems really off. He doesn't seem to have taken it well and all this aggro about where the next fight should be. He doesn't seem like a man brimming with confidence right now. In a fight with Abraham you shouldn't need to be worrying too much about the cards. You can take rounds from him, it's getting through to the end that's the tough part.
The funniest thing I found about the video was Kessler's sister - she had identical tattoos to him on her arm.
Still would, mind. ;D
I thought she was extremely scary. I really like the way Kessler carries himself actually, he comes across as a really nice guy.Quote:

On another note is Kessler gay?? I mean the bloke is like the biggest star in Denmark add to that he is a handsome man, I have never seen him with a female friend for say the best part of last 6 years, is he batting for the other team?
I always though that he was shagging Royal's sister or something? ???
Or maybe just Royal? that would explain half of his posts.
Yea Royal said Kessler was his brother in law. Royal was shit.

So how does that prove anything?? Doesn't say if it is with a guy or a women, just find it unusual that a guy of his stature in his country probably on the same level as David Beckham is never seen with a lady, on all the behind scene footage I have seen of him never once is he with a bird or mentions one, maybe I am wrong just a bit odd. :p
With his sister? They seem very close. :oQuote:

Just cuz Kess doesnt stagger out of clubs coked up with some scummy slapper on his arm, I dont think that means he is a faggot. Maybe he prefers to keep his private life private. Celebrities over their conduct themselves with a certain degree of self respect that famous people in this country seem to lack. Its a sign of the times that we must automatically assume that because someone doesnt live their life in the public eye they must be a dirty homo. It was the same with Lewis.

Have you got a secret crush on him or something mate? You seem a bit touchy, I am not on about staggering out of clubs etc etc his girlfriend I have never seen at one of his fights in all the time I have followed him 6/7 years, but maybe like you say he/she doesnt like to be involved with the his career for whatever reason.Quote:

It's disrespectful IMO to a great boxer like Kessler so lets just watch the boxing shall we and discuss the fights . . . . . but you can call Khan a fag all day long. I have no problem with that.
