Fight week!!! Froch poll and opinions!!!FIGHT THREAD. SPOILERS

by **Seanusarrilius** Tue May 21, 2013 3:02 pm

First topic message reminder :

I think there was another poll, but let's start a fresh!

Who wins?
How?
Entertainment factor?
Where do they go after?

Let me say this. Froch wins, TKO, in a war that matches the Hatton v Kosta bout for epicness.

War Froch! War Boxing! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!

By the way, bit off topic too (but kind of relevant) what fights are there to look forward to between now and September? I know Haye was supposed to fight but it seems that's not happening.

by Cast a Shadow Sat May 25, 2013 10:53 pm

Kessler's a different proposition in Denmark, and struggles a bit when he travels abroad. If he gets past Froch again, then Ward in Copenhagen would be a different proposition to their fight a couple of years back.

Rather like the home and away legs of a European tie...

What the hell is the idiot wearing, a clown suit?

by Guest Sat May 25, 2013 10:57 pm

Ricky Hatton has a strong fancy for Carl Frock tonight.

by John Bloody Wayne Sat May 25, 2013 10:58 pm

Froch's body looks old.

Your votes on the Music Cup thread would be appreciated as we await the main event.

by mobilemaster8 Sat May 25, 2013 11:02 pm

Kessler ko.......thats my final prediction. No idea why.

by jimdig Sat May 25, 2013 11:03 pm

rumble

by Duty281 Sat May 25, 2013 11:04 pm

Final prediction, Froch by 11th round TKO.

Thought a Scrabble cup would be more up your street.

I'm going for a stoppage win....but I just cannot decide who. Either way a stoppage would be surprise given how tough and durable both guys are! May make a last minute decision on who as they enter the ring...

by davidemore Sat May 25, 2013 11:06 pm

FROCHY BAAAAABY!!!

by Steffan Sat May 25, 2013 11:07 pm

KESSLER KESSLER KESSLER!!!

by BallchinianMuffwig Sat May 25, 2013 11:07 pm

i actually hope it goes the distance, like both guys wouldn't want to see either have a career damaging stoppage loss.

Froch UD but I think it'll be slightly hometown and there'll be a case for a rubber match.

God save our gracious Queen
Long live our noble Queen
God save our Queen
*NO SURRENDER*
Send her victorious
Happy and glorious
Long to reign over us
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN

33/1 froch in round 4

5/1 kessler to win within 12 any method.

by WHU_Champo_League_in_7Yrs Sat May 25, 2013 11:11 pm

Surprised so many have gone for a KO for either fighter

Not sure what that's based on, neither were badly staggered in the first fight and neither are huge punchers. They're heavy handed but barring green neither have really got a one punch KO. Stoppages over mack, Bute and Magee isn't too much as none of those are tough fighters

by azania Sat May 25, 2013 11:12 pm

Kessler all the way.

by **Union Cane** Sat May 25, 2013 11:12 pm

Come on Carl, WAR FROCH!!!!!

by kingraf Sat May 25, 2013 11:13 pm

Whered you get those odds Mobile? Might throw down £50 on both

I have a couple of mates at the fight...gutted I got the Dortmund v Munich game instead of this (though I shouldn't complain) but I hear the crowd is on par with Hatton vs Tszyu all those years ago! Must be electric in the O2!

Wanna swap jobs Owen!

Hope they dont boo the Danish anthem if they play it.

by **owen10ozzy** Sat May 25, 2013 11:18 pm

Absolutely Buzzing now!! The noise is incredible by the sounds of it! Would love to be there...strap yourself in lads should be a cracker! (There's the curse or a 1 round blowout!)

by **hampo17** Sat May 25, 2013 11:18 pm

Been ages since I've been to watch a fight live, this has me on ticketmaster just looking for a local show!

by mobilemaster8 Sat May 25, 2013 11:18 pm

Sky bet right now live.....go for it...

Should sing up then!

Andre Ward's trending on twitter Laugh

funny how HBO have analysed this fight by showing how he kicked both their arris'. Americans eh...

by bhb001 Sat May 25, 2013 11:24 pm

Surprised Froch came in first being the champ.

by **hampo17** Sat May 25, 2013 11:25 pm

Not sure why British fans feel the need to boo national anthems, makes us look like shaved monkeys.

by Sugar Floyd Louis Sat May 25, 2013 11:25 pm

Boo's for the Danish national anthem aren't as bad as I expected them to be to be honest.

Lost the coin toss, they're both champions.

by azania Sat May 25, 2013 11:25 pm

They had a coin toss. And like the fight, Froch lost that.

by azania Sat May 25, 2013 11:26 pm

Phew. Most were respectful of the anthem. Credit to them. Not like Hatton fans.

Lost the toss. Won't lose the fight though...

WAR FROCH!!!!!!!!

by **owen10ozzy** Sat May 25, 2013 11:26 pm

Sod it I am making a prediction.....7th Round...stopped on a nasty cut...Froch with the win!!!

by Sugar Floyd Louis Sat May 25, 2013 11:26 pm

God save the millions of people in poverty.

by Commander Sat May 25, 2013 11:26 pm

No polish anthem! Crying or Very sad

Cynic.

by Sugar Boy Sweetie Sat May 25, 2013 11:27 pm

I'm back. And I fancy Kessler by points.

by Duty281 Sat May 25, 2013 11:27 pm

Oh just let the fans sing the anthem rather than p!ss about with professionals.

by **owen10ozzy** Sat May 25, 2013 11:28 pm

Oh dear....Froch doesn't look great under that right eye...anyone else notice that. Seems he may have had some recent cut/bruising under that!!
