        Bold pick.

        Froch gets hit alot but nothing ever happens. And why a world-class fighter Taylor is not a world class puncher. Yeah he had Pavlik down, but Pavlik had been down before that.

        I don't really know how good Froch is, but from watching an awful lot of his fights he is packing a granite chin. I doubt Taylor could knock him out if he were to run over him in his car.

        Taylor UD though.

          Haha they say Froch winning at all is an outside pick and then they go and pick Taylor by KO. LOfuckingL. I'm sorry but I don't think even Taylor thinks he can knock Froch out, I expect him to turn up looking to take advantage from Froch's low guard and to try and out box him. Froch however will be fighting as he always does, trying to make every punch hurt you and I still think he is definately the favourite to win by KO and I hope it happens, although it's gonna be a very close fight.

            I don't see Taylor winning by TKO/KO.

            Froch's chin appears to be granite and Taylor doesn't have the best power.

            I see Taylor winning a clear decision though.

              Just put my bets on - Froch KO from 8th round onwards!

                Froch has got this one in the bag IMO. Taylor will definately not be able to KO him and I think Froch's work rate will be far superior

                  Froch has never been down as a pro or an amatuer, his chins as hard as chuck norris...

                  Where as Taylor has been down quite a few times and even in his last fight though it was ruled a slip.

                    I don't see a stoppage happening in favour of Taylor. There are 2 results in this fight. A Froch knockout, or a Taylor UD. Simple.


                    Thats how i got it.

                    If it goes to points it will be Taylor wide, early i got Froch.

                      It's an intelligent pick, froch has a poor defense and you can't just fix that for one fight. No one is invincible, anyone can be knocked the **** out. And Taylor is probably going to be the hardest puncher Froch has ever faced. And I wouldn't say Froch is the hardest puncher Taylor has faced. I'd say Pavlik at Middle Weight is harder puncher for the fact Pavlik has knocked out better competition.
