    Jermain Taylor-Carl Froch Ordered By The WBC

    Carl Froch has now got his hard-earned shot at the vacant WBC super-middleweight title against Jermain Taylor later this year but hopes his co-challenger doesn't bottle out of it. [details]

    JT has balls if he takes this (but we already know that)

    Maybe one step too far for Froch.

      I don't see how Taylor can NOT take this fight. I didn't get the impression that he was super-hyped about fighting Lacy, so while Froch may not be a big name stateside, it is an opportunity for a high profile fight and a belt. Plenty of motivation for JT.

        Jermain needs to take this fight seriously............if not a possible KO is on hand leading to a finished career.

        This may also be Froch's only chance for a title fight, so he needs to bring is A game which we haven't seen against any top opponent. This will be an exciting match-up and Froch could have the style to frustrate Jermain.

            Taylor is WAYYY overrated. He wins this one of experience alone - IMO. Taylor isn't even an elite fighter.

                For a fighter that hasnt fought any TOP middleweights Froch sure is talking a lot of ****.

                  froch has worked hard to get a shot at the title and would definitely bring his A game to the fight, i think that if a motivated taylor turns up the he might just edge a close decision, froch definitely has a chance though

                    taylor is very skilled boxer.

                    he would be very high on the p4p list if he actually knew how to finish a guy off, its jt`s fault for all the pavlik hype
