    but why is that the case though? His stlye of fighting is power and putting in hurtful combinations which consist of accurate pressure punches. Its very effective as you have all seen from his impressive record so far. You all say when he steps up against a good boxer, but whos the boxer ultimatly going to be? All of them bar from JC I personally think Froch can handle and would give them problems all night, boxer or not boxer they will feel the power in the end.

    Well I think it would be one of the best fights to be made at 168 right now. Kessler has been very inactive himself and really does need a fight soon to see where he stands. Remember what happend to Jeff Lacy after the JC loss? He went shit. I hope this isnt the case with Kessler because hes a great talent. From what we have seen I can see why people might think he would be Froch. But times are changing and Froch is still growing into a very strong fighter.

    Except,for except knowing he was hurt against JC,nobody knows how bad it is,because his camp wont say. He just may be in need of time to heal up. Froch isnt exactly my fave fighter,but Id hate to see Kessler take another fight when he's hurt. Take the time,and heal it

    I just don't see it, thought he looked poor again. Looked slow and you just can't become an elite fighter with defense like that. Especially if you don't have incredible reflexes.

    He didnt even get caught that although the fighter wasnt the best, his defence wasnt too bad if you ask me. Did u ever see him take anything more than a little jab or a right? Nothing major if you asked me. As ive said, his range and footwork help him with his defence. It may look easy to hit him, but his presence in the ring can really put you off looking for a big shot. Who has ever landed one that you can think of? I dont understand why people think his defence is going is such a big problem. There is more talk about is not being so good, although he has won all of his fights. Cant be too bad if you ask me.

    The other guy just didn't do anything though, hard to get hit often if the other guy's not throwing. He was just too worried about Froch's offence. I think that's partly your point but the fact is that won't work forever, when he finally fights a good fighter that will change, it always does, power's not enough by itself.

    I have seen less of Froch than you have, I have no doubt of that. I've only seen like 6 or 7 of his fights and for the most part most of the guys were too defensive to land at will on him (there was one fight when he was coming up couple years ago where he got tagged at will, I can't remember his name, maybe somebody will, he was an unknown) but that will change as his opposition level goes up. Can you imagine Kessler having a hard time landing his 1-2 on Froch? I just can't.
