So Taylor stopping a very hungry and determined fighter is highly unlikely... Taylor just seems to want the biggest payday so I actually predict that Froch has a good chance to beat Taylor. Americans are so biased towards there own its almost insultive... not that I don't blame you, brits, cubans, mexicans are all the same. out.
I have just read through you pompously lecturing someone about exactly the same kind of crap as the above mentioned in another thread.I suggest you take your own advice.
It was a joke. That's what the little dancer was supposed to convey.
I think Taylor will win quite easily. Obviously I will be behind Froch but I haven't been overly impressed by him and I thought the fight against Pascal was closer than the cards suggested and, to be blunt, I don't think Pascal was up to much. That said, Froch took some huge shots that night and if Taylor punches himself out as he seemed to do against Pavlik he could find himself in all sorts of trouble.
It's OK to be a little nationalistic from time to time.
Did the Hatton supporters pummel you afterwards?
Lol I was thinking the same thing... Its like when england lose a football match full of hooligans to shout YES when england lose.
It's not about being nationalistic with me..........I supported PBF VS Hatton........I was the only person in a packed pub full of so-called Hatton supporters who jumped up out of my seat and shouted "YES" when Floyd KO'd Hatton.

He wanted RJJ; more money and far less risk. I very much doubt Froch was the 'biggest payday', but it is the best route to getting his career back on track with a belt and win over a fighter most sensible people recognise as one of the best SMWs.
I wouldn't criticise him for not coming to the UK simply because he didn't have to to make the fight, so why would he want to?
Carl Froch is only getting 400,000 for this fight, so imagine how much Taylor is getting? Froch is defintely trying to get the exposure he needs to be a super star.
taylor is not going to ko froch.....i would be shocked if there was a ko by either man in this fight....i'm for froch, and hes got balls thats for sure coming to america for his first title defense.....but taylor wins a very lopsided decsion 117-111 and it could be way worse then that.
When they get in the ring together we will see if Taylor really wants to fight Froch, I got a feeling that Taylor is gonna be on the back foot all night long.
I picked Froch by KO so lets hope he fears the British bulldog.

A very unbiased post, I am surprised a Brit can form one of those.:dance:

Only because Froch came over the pond..............Taylor seems uneasy with Froch, maybe he sees a style which will give him problems.:boxing:
Read the post above you.
Only because Froch came over from the UK, he didn't have to as he is the Champ. Taylor should have gone to the UK but he bottled it. I reckon Taylor tried pulling a sly one by saying he wouldn't go to the UK thinking Froch would look elsewhere, but Froch manned up and said well **** you, if you don't wanna come over and fight, ill go to you, and in his first defence. He could have fought bums back in England for a couple of years earning easy money, gotta give huge respect to Carl.
Everything you just stated are presumptions and assumptions. The fight is happening you should be glad. Carl does deserve respect, you are right about that tho. Lets also not forget Taylor didn't renew his HBO contract so he could fight Froch. HBO did not want the bout, Showtime did. To assume Taylor doesn't/didn't want this fight is foolish on more then one level.

If he was with Frank warren he WOULD definitely be fighting bums has his first defence.
I repeat!!! Froch would knockout Jermaine taylor tonight, I would be shocked if he doesnt knock him out, Taylor boxing "Skills" are very overrated imo and he would find it very hard against Froch who has a great chin.
So many British boxers go out and lose against the elite American fighters. I think the Americans are predicting Froch is gonna lose for that reason. I think if he wins then they will start to take him seriously.
This is a huge test for Froch and is gonna pretty much show what level fighter he is.
You said it yourself, this is a huge test. Predicting a Taylor win has nothing to do with nationality. It may be a smart prediction.
Froch by KO 10

If we had more british elite fighters then there would be more fights obviously and perhaps more victorious brits.
Are they not entering the ring?

I'm talking about the reluctance to fight him.........Taylor was looking for a bigger name and payday........with less risk.
Once again, Are they not entering the ring?
