Kessler stands in front of you and throws jabs, crosses and a textbook hook to the body or head, his defense is feet and blocking shots to the body and head on the way back.

Froch bangs him up with the counters from range and comes forward to stop him smoothly in the fifth.
If the fight ever happens, which i don't think it will, id be willing to bet my entire Saddoboxing profile to the contrary.
I would join hitmandonny here. Froch couldn't stop Kess. The guy has never been knocked down in his entire career including amateur. Kess would just take him apart.
Thanks bz....
Not long left now huh!
Delighted for ya and hope you have a ball!!!!!

On the Froch/Kessler question...
Froch prides himself on counterpeunching with the power preventing a continued retaliation....
The fact is his power would not faze Kessler, he'd march forward use his own power and Froch would be forced to fight or flee. Froch drops the left as a distraction so as to throw his right, Kessler grabs this opportunity and uses THAT straight right
Cheers man, I fly tomorrow morning.

I agree with you. I don't see how Froch has the power to hurt Kessler. Every time Joe dropped his hands Kessler pounced on him. The last round was tough as Joe wanted to showboat but Kess just went for the KO. If Froch drops the left, Kess will punish him, and Froch hasn't proven he can take a punch. Unfortunately, I'm unlikely to find out this or the Haye result until I get back on Monday.
