I really want to see this fight happen.

Forgot to mention this when i posted the RJJ thread earlier.

This should be an excellent fight, for as good as Taylor has been im not sure he will ever be the fighter he was before he met Pavlik.
For me I think the power of the Cobra would be too much for Taylor and i predict a late KO, round 9 or onwards.

I really want to see this fight happen. I really wonna see Froch tested.

Do you really want to see another overrated British fighter lose to the superior American?

It's interesting you should say that, because I want to see if he is overated or not. I've only seen 3 of his fights and he looked very good, he has amazing devastating power.

22 wins / 18 KO's that's a pretty high percentage of total KO's.

I am joking.I would like to see the fight also.If Carl Froch lands,Taylor will most likely go down.The only thing I question about Foch is his defense

Same here. He's quite old but young in his career as well.

Only seen enough of Froch to know that he's decent, probably not anything special. Could be wrong, but I'd pick Tayolr to beat him.

I think Taylor would win on points. Hopefully they'll fight sooner rather than later, I hope there won't be a pointless tune-up for either of them.

Froch has a very decent amateur pedigree and a decent chin, his defence is better than many people give him credit for.
