The rematch, Carl Froch - Mikkel Kessler 2 fight chat thread - Warriors Call !!!

[DavilaJones]

Coming from a Dawson KO Im sure he can get the traction. I think Ward would accept the rematch in a heartbeat though. But first things first, lets enjoy this coming fight

[imp]

Lets be realistic.

Since fight 1 Kessler has had 3 fight and the only half decent fighter he fought was Allen Green.

Froch has had 5 fight and the WORST he has fought is Yusif Mack.

So Froch has been the more productive, plus he seems to have found a mean streak and a sudden burst of power against world class fighters.

Froch was struggling for KOs at the top level, only managing to stop Jermaine Taylor, but look at the last 2 fights.

I think Froch stops him round 6-8.

Froch fought, an average Abraham, an old Johnson (only by MD) lost to Ward, KOed BUte and KOed Mack. Only think impressive there is the Bute win and in hindsite Bute was good but not that good. Mack is shit. What Froch has done, is not that impressive and if he wasnt English he wouldnt be getting this ridiculous hype.

Bit harsh.

Bute was good..but unfortunately he ran into froch.

Hate when fighters get called overrated when another better fighter destroys them.

Yea I hate that too. But Bute clearly was overrated, given his next performance against Grachev. Plus if Froch beats you in that fashion, you aint that good...FACT!

[imp]

Froch has never beaten anyone in that bute fashion so there could be some truth there.

Then again, when someone beats you like that it can change a fighter for the worst.

Well is going to be electric tomorrow, I think Kessler will win this.

First of Kessler faced Froch last time after the beating and serious headbutt´s from Ward, I think that even without the headbutt´s Ward would have won that fight, I never seen Kessler been that bad prepared, he was all over the Danish media in the radio and TV and I think he lost focus.

Well Kessler fought imo bad against Froch last time, in a style you not would see from Kessler normaly ( see Andrade got picked time and time again, but with a equal slow Froch he missed a lot, I think it was due to the eye-problem he got from the Ward fight, so Kessler which is a very solid technical boxer( some say robotic) miss a slow Froch again and again, I believe he will not miss this time.

I think that Montoya has changed Kessler into a more aggresive fighter with new tricks, so I think Kessler will surprise a lot of people if you think it will be a even fight. Kessler could not match the workrate of Calzaghe or Ward, I don´t think that will be a issue with Froch this time either.

I think the Ward fight took a lot out of Kessler and we saw more of the warrier in front of his own crow, Kessler simply would give, eventhough Froch was hurting Kessler at times, but I don´t see the slip in Kessler as some say. I will agree that he had opponent that was cashcows for Saurland and Kessler. But Kessler is really fit and looks very ready and confident.

Well Froch may have a home advantage but if he tries to do the same gameplan as he did to Bute I think we will see a quick KO, but it will be Froch. I hope in the 3rd round, well heck I put 30pound on that at odds 85:1, will it is a long shot but I think the odds was to tempting. I do believe that Kessler will outbox Froch but I must admit froch has found a momentum that may prove to give Kessler some trouble, but I think he will handle it.

Anyway I wish all of us a great fight tomorrow

Good to read that the ringwalks are pretty late for this one...means I can watch the champions league final before the Boxing starts to get interesting.

Fight day is here !!!!!!!!!!

Hate to say it, but I think I want Kessler to win tonight. He just comes across as the nicer guy, the better professional and (as far as I know) his missus isn't going to be making a good impression of a drunk person with a megaphone at ringside.

Hope youre right but i think carl wins on points. The Danes and the brits should drown out the noise of carls hound though

[mrbig1]

This is the fight I've been waiting for. I don't know who's going to win. All I know it's going to be a war.

[Silkeyjoe]

I think people are hyping this fight too much. Can't see it being as good as the 1st

[rosco1984]

Can't wait for the fight tonight! Not looked forward to a fight like this since audley Harrison's pro debut!lol

Both guys have pop. Both guys have heart. Both guys have skill. Both guys will trade. Typically, those are the ingredients for a good turn up. Me personally, I'm very excited about it.

Just so in case you didn't know, Grachev went on to beat Erdei, after fighting Bute. And Bute might have been overrated, but he had beat Bika and Glen Johnson easy. I wouldn't diminish Froch's victory. It was a good one.
