Carl Froch and Mikkel Kessler ready for battle

Quote:
Carl Froch and Mikkel Kessler labelled themselves as gladiators yesterday as they launched the second of what could be a trilogy of fights.
The super-middleweight duo were at London's O2 Arena to promote the 25 May meeting between them which will serve as a rematch to their bloody tear up in Denmark three years ago.
Froch was beaten on that night, with his nose broken and his unbeaten record whipped away from him in a bout that is still referred to owing to its brutality.
Both men have won and lost world titles since and will put the belts they currently have, the IBF (Froch) and WBA (Kessler) on the line in front of 17,000 fight fans who snapped up every available ticket within two hours of them going on sale yesterday.
