By Mikkel Mikkelsen: Recently I’ve noticed a lot of talk about whether or not the second fight between Mikkel Kessler and Carl Froch is going to happen. In addition to that, I’ve read that there people who have some doubt about it taking place, Therefore I felt like posting my thoughts on it. I personally don’t understand why people doubt it.

Kessler vs. Froch 2, second quarter of 2013
Only few days after Mikkel Kessler’s knockout victory over WBA World super middleweight champion Brian Magee, it has been revealed that a rematch between the two master boxers Kessler and Froch is a very real possibility and quite near.
The Danish newspaper “Ekstra Bladet” put the spotlight on that fact and the promoters of the two fighters, Kalle Saurland and Eddie Hearns, have already been through a good part of negotiation. A signed contract shouldn’t be too many days away in the future. It’s possible a contract could be signed by the two camps before Christmas, according to Kalle Sauerland.
Kessler KOs Magee!
(Photo Wende) Last night Mikkel Kessler became a world champion for the fifth time by winning the WBA World Super middleweight Championship by knocking out Brian Magee in the third round. That’s a very impressive accomplishment and a very awesome victory.
The fight started of in the first round having Kessler controlling the fight, being very sharp and fast at moving back and forward and side to side, sticking with the jab. Though to Magee’s credit, he was doing quite fine by himself in the first round.
