Iv just rewatched the first fight and Froch lost it by not working enough. Kessler is consistant in his work rate and that will always be the difference. Kessler opens himself up to be hit more but thats because hes more active and took the initiative and had Froch on the backfoot for most of the fight.

He will outwork Froch again. Kessler isnt an untested weak chinned fighter like Bute and Mack. Iv said it before but his last 2 fights havent shown us anything we didnt already know, other than maybe prove that Bute was protected. Kessler fought Green where Green said he was comfortable and stronger, weight wise and then Magee who was on a good run of form but stopped him faster than anyone else could have, walked through him. Froch stopped Bute who had already been KO'd by Andrade and then fought a weight drained Mack.

Same outcome again, Kessler on points or maybe if Froch starts faster as I think he will, he will tire earlier and may get stopped. He did slow down in their last fight without being too agressive. If he starts faster here and slows down sooner and Kessler is still good to go he will be in trouble because Kessler will try and stop him.
