    I'm calling this now.

    Actually I've thought it for a number of years but I'm just getting it out there now. I realise that not many americans would have seen the cobra in action before but he is the best 168 pounder around today. He WILL beat Kessler if they fight and reign supreme in the division.

    I think he would beat Calzaghe if they fought but that won't happen.

    I expect, no, I DEMAND that you all kiss my ass when Carl Froch dominates the division for years.

    Froch is a sneaky cunt, with the way he times that hail mary uppercut, but apart from that, he's so loose and his defence is so attrocious that I see Kessler dominating on just his straight shots alone, 1,2,1,2,1,2,....... 120 - 108.

    Froch is a good fighter with very good power, but he is still largely untested at any kind of high level and is still no more than a prospect at this stage.

    It's a shame his fight with Inkin has been binned- I was looking forward to seeing that fight which would have given a better indication of Carl's abilities.

    What a complete idiot you are.

    Froch is an awkward farmer with a good punch.

    Calzaghe and Kessler would both beat him without even breaking a sweat.

    Oh i get it, Attraction is a Hennessey cheerleader....

    Froch is good, i believe as good as anyone in that division besides Kessler.

    Kessler is too good technically for Froch, and would punish him for his defensive flaws.

    Now with the Inkin fight falling through, Froch should finally get his big chance, there are some big names below him in the WBC top 10.

    I can't believe the hype Frock is getting :lol:

    He's nothing more than a domestic level fighter.

    Stick to Witter attraction.

    I think he's a little better than that, Calzaghe would wipe the horse shit from his shoe with him and Kessler also takes him out.

    But after that he can do well the super middle.

    I love that line....' Froch is a sneaky cunt' :laughing:

    I just don't see what the hype is about at all. I think Andrade would beat the fuck out of Frock.

    Froch is a pretty good fighter. It remains to be seen what becomes of 168, now that the guy holding back the division has left. It's wide open for a young fighter to take it by the scruff of the neck and etch out a legacy for himself.

    Margarito has the vastly superior reach, but yes, Cotto's punches will be straighter and quicker,.. but,.. Margarito will keep grinding away, and if he can keep punching right to the very end which I think he will, he may well outhustle and outwork a rapidly backpeddling Cotto, it shall be in vain however, he'll be robbed, there's no way Arum allows a blemish on Cotto's record, he wont have that, Cotto is the jewell of Top Rank, and hurt Cotto groupies just like hurt Hopkins groupies will cry that "Cotto landed the more effective punches and deserved the decision".. but Margarito will have landed twice as more, and will have left Cotto completely exhausted by the end, you'll get the nod though Illuminati, enjoy your robbery [​IMG][​IMG].

    Inkin is a bum. That fight would prove nothing.

    Im not sold on Froch at all. I think his defense is pathetic, is pretty slow and he doesn't have the best technique in the world. I see him getting KO'd soon. Kessler will destroy him IMO.

    Beating Mundine easily is pretty impressive.

    Yes, REED has...REED ALSO Saw Lucian Bute Treat Andrade the EXACT SAME Way for 11 Rounds....Andrade's a GATE KEEPER Supermiddle, NOT the Type of Guy that Illustrates GREATNESS N a Guy...

    The SAME Mundine that SOMEHOW Managed to Get KO'ed by Sven Ottke's PILLOW FISTED Ass???....Mundine Isn't DEVOID of Talent, but he's a B - or C + Level Fighter, just like the Rest of Kessler's NOTABLE Opposition...

    Bute lost by KO, in any neutral arena. Much like Abraham's "win" over Edison Miranda, Bute's "win" did come on the heels of a dominant first 8 rounds.

    Once Andrade got going, it became much more competitive, and Andrade beat the piss out of him in the last 3 minutes.

    Kessler not only won every second against Andrade, but he stood with him and beat the neanderthal out of him
