Kessler never held on for dear life like that against Froch.

I saw the fight already and have seen the fight several times. I have it on DVD. Kessler comes right back at him after a brief rest.

Here is Mikkel himself

"You have to have a game-plan against Carl, who has longer arms than I thought and is physically strong, as if you hit him he will hit you right back," said Kessler, who defeated Brian Magee in December to seize his strap.
"I know some more things about him now having seen his previous fights against guys like Lucian Bute, but I think Froch, who is not as fast as Joe Calzaghe but hits harder, has got better (since we fought).

In the BN interview today he says (and you will have to trust me or buy a copy because I can't find a link, so have copied word for word)

"..even if Joe gave me a much more technically difficult fight, Carl was my hardest fight, both physically and mentally, and my greatest victory." Kessler also reveals that, even amid the glow of victory, he felt far more battered the morning after the Froch fight. "But it was a good hurt" he says with a grin."When you don't care. When you lose it's a bad hurt in your heart. After Joe only my tendons were very sore. But they always are when a fight goes past six rounds. The punches from Joe didn't hurt too much because he's not such a hard hitter. With Carl you feel the blows much more. He is very slow but a strong puncher"

But yet Calzaghe fought the best version of Kessler ever whereas Froch fought the comebacking version whod just been beaten again and he still managed to give Froch his first loss.

Kessler can tell all the fairy storys he wants about who doesnt hit hard and who does but If Joe didnt hit hard why didnt he just walk through him?

Not sure joe fought a better version. When kessler fought joe he was young inexperienced and away from home. When h fought carl he was at home and his career was on the line. He also had more experience at world class and seemed to put it all on the line and fight with more desperation than he did in cardiff[/QUOTE]

Are you for real?

Kessler was inexperienced!!?

He fought Siaca, mundine, Lucas, Beyer and Andrade, travelled to Australia, wan and unified 2 world titles. There was no one else for him to fight in the division that meant anything other than Joe. Froch was a nobody at this point, still yet to fight Robin Reid who was his first former world champion or even ex title challenger. Froch meant nothing on the world stage at this point and was not a legitimate challenge for either Calzaghe or Kessler.
