    Now that you have convinced me that you are not Carl Froch Tam, will you be going to the fight or PPV to watch it?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I wanted to go to the fight, but no joke I was asleep all day and the tickets sold out by the time I was up. I am just going to watch it with all of my uni mates, it's one of my last weekends in Leeds before I move home so it will be a special occasion!!

    I keep looking for last minute tickets on ebay but for me to come from Guernsey id want 2 nights over there at least, probably 3, plus the ticket and ferry, food, drink, shopping etc blah, blah, blah, all of a sudden its a £1500 weekend and then there is no guarantee the fight will actually happen, if either fighter gets hurt, the venue burns down any stupid thing...

    I saw an advert or clip for some boxing show before, in the o2 and there are people sat in the front seats and cunts in front of them are stood up jumping around. Id be a bit fucked off to spend all that cash just to have some thick, ignorant cunt act like a twat in front of me and ruin my night when I can sit in the comfort of my own home and watch it. That one clip ruined it for me. Id love to go and watch it live but bit pointless buying tickets in the front if even then you aint gonna see it!

    Have seen some tickets available for the "Sky bar" im presuming thats like a hospitality thing sky has and it looks miles from the ring in the pictures but its an unobsured view but still, watching it on the TV, ill actually be able to make out whos who.

    I thought Froch won last time and I think he should win again. He has been at the peak of his career and I think Kessler is on the slide. I wouldn't be surprised to see either guy win though. It should be a fantastic fight.

    Kessler won the fight . Come on , just look at the punch outputs. I think Froch wins the rematch but it will be close and may be controversial ( hopefully not)

    i have watched the fight 4 times, first i was drunk, i saw kessler coming forward throwing a lot of punches and froch pot shotting, i thought kessler won

    the other 3 having watched sober i cant see how kessler has won, he was throwing wildly and froch couldnt miss

    in the 4th kessler looked like he could be stopped, but then came back into it in the middle rounds with froch finishing stronger

    Only if they want to still be involved with the WBA. There are going to be other bigger momey options available to them like Hopkins, Bute, Pascal, Cleverly. All meaningless fights but all will generate more money and they are both in the twighlight of their careers, they want to earn while they can.

    Neither should fight him unless he fights them in their country, fuck Ward, hes still a nobody. Kessler and Froch are the ticket sellers of the division not Ward. Every fight hes had has been in America, even during the super 6 when every one of the other fighters travelled.

    Although I will say if they want to do that then this may be as good a time as any to sign up as Ward hasnt fought since last September and then it was someone who couldnt offer a challenge. Draining them down from light heavy. Froch and Kessler would have taken less than half the time to stop that Dawson.

    I think ward will travel if he is paid enough.

    Thats where hes fucked.

    Hes not box office. No one knows who he is and if I were to try explaining to the general boxing fan and show them some footage on facebook they may know then who he is but they wouldnt be any more interested in him.

    He is going to have to bite the bullet and take short money, if he is offered to travel but not for what he thinks he is worth. Eliminate all other possible names by beating them and become an attraction that way. Right now, constantly fighting in America when the majority of the division and the middles and light heavies are from Europe does nothing for his appeal.

    I think Kessler won the 1st fight quite clearly although it was somewhat close, but based on form you'd have to go for Carl Froch.

    Yes Carl has had an excellent result against Bute but Kessler would have matched it, maybe quicker.

    Remember, Bute only wanted to travel and use Froch as an opponent because of how shite and slow he looked against Ward. Bute thought, "Ahhh... Froch has just had the poorest showing of his career, he is the perfect opponent for my next fight!"

    Whereas Kessler was coming off beating Froch and knocking someone else out. Froch was viewed as finished when Bute was looking at him. Kessler was still dangerous.

    Frochs last fight was absolutely pointless. A weight drained journeyman. Id rather see an old name brought up in weight not a never was journeyman brought down. At least an old name can still have the energy to look after himself and possibly have the skill to cause problems, like Ouma and Spinks did to Taylor.

    I don't think Froch is any better now than when he fought Ward, or Kessler. All that happened is he started faster against Bute who would never had dealt with Kesslers either.

    If Kessler is still doing the weight ok and is injury free its going to go the same way.
