Carl Froch has named the man he wants beside him in a street fight.
‘The Cobra’ retired in 2014 after his famous KO of George Groves at Wembley stadium infront of 80,000 fight fans, as he likes to remind us.
Speaking on his YouTube channel Froch on Fighting, he revealed the man he’d want beside him on the cobbles, he said,
“Mikkel Kessler jumps to mind, he keeps himself fit and strong, he’s still in shape.
So who would I want as my wing man in a street fight? Probably Mikkel Kessler. Although Andre Ward was very good with his head, look how he good he was against Kessler, cutting him to bits. And the head can be quite useful in a street fight.
So maybe Andre Ward’s wrestling skills and head butting would make him a good wing man on the street. Nah, I’m taking the p**s now.
Mikkel Kessler would be the ultimate wingman in a straightener on the cobbles.”
Froch faced Kessler in two gruelling bouts, losing the first in 2010.
But Froch got his revenge at the 02, London, in 2013 when he defeated the Dane by unanimous decision.
