Kessler/Froch...who wins?

[The Shadow]

I'm going with Kessler on points. Disapointed in Mikkel, i honestly thought he was close to top 10 p4p . But I still think that Froch has a style made for Kessler and it would be a close win on points for Kessler. Ward beats Froch easily though if they fight.

Right now Ward is a top 20 p4p fighter for sure. First Miranda and now Kessler so easily. He could actually be the winner of the tournament.

But my pick is Abraham

I agree 100%. The Armenian fighting out of Deutschland takes it all. He just has too many skills and too much power.

I changed my mind to Froch. I think Kessler's confidence took a hit. He said he was really down after the Calzaghe loss. This would at least double that depression and bring doubt. Kessler came in saying Ward would immediately see the difference how much better he is. Those first 4 rounds had to sap Kessler's confidence a lot. This one will stick for a while. And Kessler just doesn't have another gear or a way to adjust. I was freaking out how Kessler just kept doing the exact same few things continually. I had no idea Kessler was so predictable. Ward did his job but Kessler made this easier than even Ward expected.

Same here. I started the thread, but have not found myself able to vote in it yet.

I just wanna see a good fight, this tourney is becoming a stinker with these runners/spoilers Ward and Dirrel.

Kessler Froch should be a good fight as they will actually fight and not try nick the fight with shitty tactics.

[Pugilistic]

I'm gonna go with Kessler.

Froch is easy to hit and comes forward, He is stylistically much better for Kessler.

I figured Ward was going to be tailor made for Kessler just because Ward has a weakish chin and he beat Miranda but struggled against him late on in the fight.

Mikkel really disappointed me, I had him as the favorite going into this Tournament and Abraham as the #2, but obviously Kessler has slipped up big time and will need to rebound vs Froch. Kessler has experience but he apparently didn't use any last night as he was bothered by things that even amateur fighters can avoid.

Abraham is now the CLEAR favorite for the entire tournament and Kessler will be lucky to even finish second.
