    Where did I mention any sanctioning bodies???? I said Froch is ranked higher than Green by The Ring. And I said that The Ring's rating's are not flawless, but that they are compiled by an independent panel of highly respected boxing experts who do not work for The Ring, so they do carry a lot of weight. Did you even read my post?

      My opinion, Green would KO Froch.

        I read a lot of posts that complained that Green was only ranked because he was an American, which is not true. I genuinely apologize, sir, if you were offended by my response. I truly hope that nothing I wrote offended you and your highly sensitive sensibilities.

          Green couldnt deal with Miranda his luck will run out after Taylor puts a whoopin on him sending him back to ESPN where he belongs.

            Id give Froch the nod based on activity and not looking down at his feet every 15 seconds...

              I dunno, all I see in Froch is power. He seems to be very slow and lacking in technical ability.

                    I think it's fair to say and everyone should agree that Taylor is avoiding a clash with Froch. Plain and simple.

                    Opting to fight Green instead of a title fight with Froch shows a coward manner from Taylor. He must see something in the Cobra.

                    Surely if a win over Froch is as easy as many of you deluded folk here suggest, he would have taken that fight in a heartbeat. Having a title would help Taylor's camp much easier finding live opponents then not having a title yet being someones mandatory.

                    I'm sorry but this fight just baffles me.

                      I basically agree with this. Apart from the coward-tag. I think it's more a lack of confidence in Jermains abilities from team Taylor rather than the fighter being

                      I simply cannot understand that Taylor wont fight Froch. To me it looks like the perfect match-up for Taylor. A fight where he can showcase his skill and footwork against a slow hittable opponent.
