Comments Thread For: Froch Discusses Adjustments Made For Kessler Rematch

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Carl Froch entered the O2 Arena main floor to the backdrop of Guns N?Roses all-time classic �Welcome to the Jungle?blaring over the PA system, a suggestion of intimidation towards Kessler fighting on the road. A more fitting setting would have been both fighters walking barefoot over hot coals into the ring, as both went through hell in Saturday�s rematch.

The contest was ultimately won by Froch via unanimous decision, winning by scores of 115-113, 116-112 and 118-110. The feat avenged his first career defeat which took place in Kessler�s native Denmark more than three years ago.

To the casual viewer, the biggest difference in the fight was Froch�s ability to walk through Kessler�s best punches while his own power shots altered the Dane�s fight plan throughout the night. [Click Here To Read More]

That was well put by Froch.

In their first fight I noticed how Froch occasionally outjabbed Kessler which surprised me as Kessler was one of the best jabbers in boxing at the time. I wish I had put some emphasis on that key point when I made my prediction.

As it was I was very impressed with Froch's jab and maybe that was the reason why Kessler couldn't apply the pressure of their first encounter. Or maybe Kessler simply was going for the big shots trying to get the KO? Hard to tell. Clear it was that Froch and McCracken had a great gameplan and Froch executed to near perfection.
