Carl Froch has told Sky Sports News that he is confident of facing and beating Mikkel Kessler in the Spring of 2013.
As for a re-match against Bute, whom he beat in May to claim the IBF title, Froch added: "It's a fight that may happen but it's not going to happen immediately. The next one is the Kessler fight, that's for sure."
