The Viking Warrior cannot wait to get back in the ring and become world champion again. The 30-year-old will meet WBC Champion Carl Froch in the second round of the Super Six World Boxing Classic, and Kessler says he\u2019s already looking forward to it. \u201cI really had a bad night against Andre Ward, but I had a good rest, analyzed everything with my team and now I am ready for Froch,\u201d he said. \u201cI have just started my preparation with my new coach Jimmy Montoya. Things have been going really well. We are training very hard here in Copenhagen and will move camp to Berlin next week. I feel very hungry without a world title and I will take the WBC belt from Froch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jimmy Montoya has no doubts that Kessler will bounce back. \u201cMikkel has so much talent and he will show it against Froch,\u201d Montoya said. \u201cIn this tournament the best are fighting the best and obviously Froch is a very strong fighter but Mikkel is better and he will beat him in front of his home fans in April.\u201d<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Promoter Kalle Sauerland added: \u201cThat was not the real Mikkel Kessler in the ring against Ward. But Jimmy Montoya has already started to bring back the real Viking Warrior. The clash with Froch will certainly be an exciting one and I am 100 percent sure that Mikkel will notch his first three points in the Super Six, especially with the support of his Danish fans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shirley Jones  (The Jones Girls &amp;
