Not only did I have him winning going into the 12th but I had him winning comfortably. I had him up 106-102. Infact, I gave Froch like the last 8 rounds or so straight. I thought he was just too big and starting physically overwhelming Taylor and wore him down. Some of the rounds were close so I wouldnt have mind if you had it Froch by 1 or 2 going into the 12th but I couldnt see him being behind and Im a Taylor fan. I actually thought Froch was an idiot because when he fought regular, he was owning Taylor. The only time Taylor could get off after the 4th round was when Froch would come in all wild and Taylor would catch him. I love Taylor though and I feel so bad for him. I always feel more sorry for him then I do anyone else for some reason. I also thought his corner was dumb for not telling him to hold. Thats all he had to do. Sure, you may wouldve lost on the cards if you lose the 12th but atleast finish the fight and give yourself a chance. He didnt hold at all and it cost him.
He was getting lit up on the ropes but if I was the ref, I still wouldnt have stopped it. You know that the round will end pretty soon and this guy is a Champ who fought a good fight. I will try my best to let him finish it unless it got unbearable. It was bad but not unbearable. Taylor has alot of heart because when he went down you could tell that he was done but he managed to get up. He had the glaze in his eyes and his legs were shot. I dont know how he got up. He must have been in great shape. It was a great fight with 2 great champs and Froch definatly proved himself tonight. I would love to see him fight Williams. Froch is huge but I think Williams can get him. Taylor is probably the most explosive guy in all of boxing but he has no coordination and doesnt know how to setup anything
