Theres a difference between not wanting to fight on and being UNABLE to fight on. Tonight JT was unable to fight on...

No.... it depends how badly you are hurt; Taylor was hurt more. To accuse Taylor of lacking 'heart' is out-of-order IMHO.Comment

What a fool!
Taylor was a warrior tonight, there was nothing he could do, he was getting hit with bombs at the end yet he still got up, and tried to hang in there. He's got more heart then you'll ever have. So get over it the man you thought would win lost, taylors never quite in a fight.Comment

A lot of morons here need to learn the difference between heart and stamina.
Jermain showed a ton of heart in the 12th round; more than we've ever seen out of him. You don't get off the canvas, dead tired, to get pounded on some more unless you've got heart.
Taylor could've taken a knee with 15 seconds left and probably finished out the round, but he never quit. He stayed on his feet and made the ref stop the fight. That's heart.
Not having the energy to mount any offense late in the fight... that's stamina. And it's shameful, because his job is to prepare for 12 round fights and he can't seem to get it right.Comment

Goddamnit, I am SICK of you people on this board saying that Taylor has no heart. I was at the fight tonight damnit, and it was an unbelieveable show that I give Froch all the respect in the world for. He just wanted it so bad int he end, and he KO'd Jermain. But for him to stand up after the first knockdown, and trying to fight back on instinct when he could, shows he has heart.
To be at the fight is to know different from what you people who watched the fight on TV say. I saw his damn mother at ringside, crying after watching her son fight a great fight for 11 rounds and to get stopped int he 12th after he could have won a close decision if he stayed on his feet.
If you don't think Jermain Taylor has heart, you're out of your ****ing mind. That is my rant for the evening, thank you all very much.Comment

Taylor did the best he could to try to survive the 12th round. He never quit.
Jermain definitely has heart, but his punch resistance isn't great.Comment

NEXT IN LINE how does this statement make sense? I give Froch all the respect in the world for He just wanted it so bad int he end, and he KO'd Jermain. But for him to stand up after the first knockdown, and trying to fight back on instinct when he could, shows he has heart.
It always Comes down to who wants it more... yea taylor got up but if he wanted it more than why didnt he let his hands go he stopped in the 8th or 9th rd.. he lets his hands go evert 20 secs..
BOTTOM LINE IS WHEN A FIGHT IS ON THE LINE U STEP IT THE **** UP.. HEART HAS MORE TO DO THAN IN THE RING... IF STAMINA IS HIS ONLY PROBLEM.. THAN U GOTTA HAVE WILL AND ****ING HEART TO WORK HARD AND BE DETERMINED!!
LISTEN TO EMANUEL STEWART WHEN TAYLOR FOUGHT SPINKS....

Ok, but you can't say Jermain has no heart...
I don't think he wants to known as one of the best to do it. If he did, he would correct this stamina problem by training harder or doin wateva he aint doing.
I don't think he sleeps, eats, drinks boxing.Comment
