Froch needs to understand a performance like the one vs Kessler does not harm his career. Fighters have to get over this mentality that a loss is the end of their ability to earn paydays.
If Froch were to lose a razor thin decision in an exciting, close fight, the viewers and TV execs will take note, and he will get another meaningful fight. Especially if the loss could have gone either way and was in the opponents backyard.
