Watching the fight I kept yelling LET YOUR RIGHT HAND GO FROCH. It was obvious that when Froch was letting that hammer go it was landing. IMO, Froch could have finished Taylor sooner but Froch decieded to play it safe and take Taylor into deep waters and then drown his ass where he knew he would not be able to survive the onslaught and he was right :fight: Taylor has heart but he is just not all that. Taylor did not beat Hopkins. Bhop beat himself by not throwing enough punches. Something I saw Froch almost do tonight.

Its sad but i think there is something mental there because he had seconds to hold out and he couldnt do it not just boxers but if you are a man you would try as hard as possible to hold on.
Im sorry but he didnt even seem that bothered just took it on the chin and kept it moving. That not what I want to seeComment

I agree on all points and I'm a well documented JT fan on these boards. He's got all the skill in the world, but he's a VERY dumb fighter and he has no heart. The stamina thing is just bizarre to me. He's always dominating a fight and then he just stops fighting around round 6 for no reason.Man i been rockin with this dude jt for a while even after the two losses to palvick and two close decisions with bhop also winky..
1. This guy had one of the best trainers (emanuel stewart) and refused to listen to him about keeping his left hand up.. This fight against frosch he keeps his hands up untill when the end of the fight.
2. How many times are u gonna say u trained your hardest but u get fatigued after he 6 or 7th all the time..
3. No heart no heart no heart.. U got 3 mins left to be a champ..let ya hands go brother.. Its like he shut off after the 6th rd..Comment

Taylor is who he is. Like Froch said, an animal doesn't change its stripes. JT actually fought a pretty good fight but, on this night, credit should go to Carl Froch who fought a better one and did it in grand style. Kudos to an impressive title defense.Comment

his stance also wastes A LOT of energyI think Jermain puts all of his strength behind all of his shots early on, but as the fight progresses his muscles tire and his stamina just falls apart. He needs to try and just box not slug and throw bombs.
Either that or he just aint doing his roadwork or sumtin...Comment

If you're dominating a fight for 5 rounds, including a knockdown, and quit fighting without getting hit, you have no heart, plain and simpleComment

And I agree, and I don't know why since you talk **** about Vitali all the time. Vitalis situation was different when he quit against chris byrd, because of the fact he had a serious injury that could have cost him his entire career if he choose to fight on. You magically want to believe byrd would have ko'd vitali if it went on even though byrd did have a great round before vitali quit but Vitali still dominated the fight.Comment

jt has huge heart...........if the way he fired those 4-5 punches when he was half dead doesnt show heart, i dont know what does......he just doesnt have confidence in himself, he didnt press the advantage in the third, and he just couldnt dig deep enough to fire punches when he was tired...Comment
