    Taylor is way better on paper, but he's looked very cagey since his KO loss to Pavlik. No the same fighter anymore. I give Froch a chance if he can get through Taylor's guard.

      I think Taylor's camp think Froch isn't fast enough to trouble them. They're right in thinking Taylor holds the edge in speed. But the trouble may stem more from Froch's unorthodoxy. He's certainly not the most predictable of fighters.

        Very odd thing to say, seeing as though it couldn't be further from the truth in every way.

        I mean if your going to trash talk, at least say something with at least some resemblance to the truth.

        He's not a better boxer, he's not more experienced, he's not a bigger name, he's not more accomplished in the boxing world, he's not become a more accomplished champion at any time plus he won a vacant belt.

        Froch is seriously deluded.

          Froch is amazes me.

          The only person who says he is good is himself.

          He's the Jose Mourinho of Boxing, and ridiculous to the point of lunacy style self-belief can get you an awful long way in sport.

          I'm intrigued by him because he looks pretty average with a peach of an uppercut that would KO a horse, but that it seems is absolutely the only offensive tool he has.

          I think Taylor beats the crap out of him.

            what a coky bastard this guy is, I can't wait for Taylor to school him and then see what he says.

              I can't wait till the day he gets outclassed by Taylor.

                Nobody KOs Froch at SMW. He has an awsome chin.

                Froch certainly has a chance, he's unorthadox and throws punch from very unique angles. I still expect Taylor to win by UD/SD though.

                  It'll be interesting to see what happens if Froch connects cleanly, especially with that uppercut. Taylor wobbled a few times against Pavlik and I'm pretty sure Froch hits an order of magnitude above Kelly.

                    Do you think that uppercut is the one real worldclass offensive weapon Froch has?

                    It looks that way to me. It is great though, the one he got Magee with, boom, goodnight.

                      Froch is a very good talker. Love him or hate him. At least he gives boxing some needed attention. Still I would say that he has no chance in this fight.
