Carl Froch i've rated him for a while now, massive win for him last night against jermaine teylor like, i honestly thought he would have gotten beaten to be fair. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12183_5241439,00.html i didnt like the fact he kept shouting his mouth off or a big fight with Calzaghe, because to be honest i didnt think he deserved it at the time, but he is deffo worthy of a big fight now after this win Kessler? Pavlik? B-Hop?
Impressive win, he cut it fine like as apparently he was well behind on the scorecards.Id like to see him fight Pavlik but then again I would of liked to have seen him fight Taylor but the cunts at ITV/Setanta/Sky Sports were all too tight to get it on UK tv.
I stayed up to watch it but fell asleep at about 2 just as the undercard was starting. Woke up again at about 6 turned the computer off and went back to bed. Will watch the re run on itv tonight. As for him running his mouth off, according to Frank Warren he said he had talks with him when he was out of contract a few years back and he made id clear he didn't fancy Calzaghe to him then, Obviously that could be a load of bullshit like but he could have been running his mouth off knowing he would never get the fight and it made him look a bit better as it made people thing Calzaghe didn't fancy him and hyped himself up a bit. He is a good fighter like and his chin is brilliant shows how strong it was that he got knocked down for the first time ever last night.
Round 12 [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y15IeCy4iXs"]YouTube - Froch - Taylor Round 12 TKO[/ame]
cant wait to watch this tonight! he was never goin to out box taylor, but sounds like he came out on top through grit and courage. the SMW division is stacked as well, he should go for lucien bute as he's seen as the no. 2 in the division, he doesnt need kessler yet like. cant see pavlik moving up to 168 either, he looked awful against hopkins at 170 catch weight, so doubt he'll move up good to actually see boxers goin for the best in the divisions tho and not ducking certain fights
Great fight, thought he might have lost it up until start of 11, taylor done what was predicted and came out early on he might have shaded it on points but the punches were landing from both sides so hard to tell. Done well froch to pick himself up, thing with froch is he always takes the fight to his opponent, no matter if hes taking a load of shots or not he never backs down or loses momentum in the fight, which ultimately won through last night, loads of heart and stamina. Proved his worth as a title holder for me.
end of the day, taylor's a class act. technically one of the best boxers goin take it into the trenches as froch says tho, it can go either way unreal fight, fucking love it
just watched this all the way through for the first time. fucking class fight like, really really enjoyed it. Froch will beat Pavlik if there last 2 fights each are anything to go by - i think they should make that fight happen
