Froch vs Taylor Rematch To Come in The Near Future?

Taylor took the fight seriously at least in training, he trained like hell. He just has stamina problems and it seems he always will. It's possible he under-estimated Froch in the middle rounds when he was out-boxing him so easily though, but not in training.It's the only fight out there for him, IMHO. And honestly, if he wants it badly enough and doesn't fanny around in training, he would beat Froch. I like Carl, but he was lucky that he fought a fighter who probably didn't take him seriously enough, and who is renowned for gassing in fights.
Kessler would destroy Froch though. But it would be a huge fight in Europe.Last edited by Dave Rado; 04-26-2009, 12:19 AM.Comment

Kessler would destroy Froch, and the reason for giving Taylor a rematch is the same reason that rematches are generally given - because Taylor was way ahead on the cards at the end, and there were only 15 seconds to go when Froch got the knock-out. Froch could not conceivably have won with less to spare - all Taylor had to do was stay upright for another 15 seconds and he'd have got the decision, but he couldn't manage it. Plus any rematch would probably be in England, which would be make it a great fight for Froch.I'm sure Taylor would like a rematch, but I see no earthly reason Froch would give him one other than a very good financial deal I doubt Taylor is likely to be worth any more. Taylor sure as hell wouldn't have given Froch a rematch if he'd got the SD, unless it was in the contract (which I very much doubt, in this case). Froch was and is still the champ, who stopped the challenger on his own turf, and the other belt-holders await.
Forget Froch v. Taylor II, roll on Froch v. Kessler.
Still I'd be happy to see either fight.Last edited by Dave Rado; 04-26-2009, 01:28 AM.Comment

I saw the fight live, just got home. Taylor was content to jab from the outside. Definately should have been more aggressive, he showed a few times that he was able to hurt froch, but only went on the offensive in spurts. it was disappointing, i was really hoping taylor would win.Comment

Jermain wasn't getting tagged with huge shots until he got tired. He wasn't throwing much from the 7th round forward, which allowed Froch to get his punches off and eventually get around Taylor's guard.
His poor stamina is frustrating as hell. He had no reason to be tired in that fight; it's not as though his punch output was outrageous before he gassed... he just needs to work with a conditioning specialist... BEFORE his next training camp.Comment

If you didn't see Taylor getting tagged with huge shots.before the 7th round....then you must have been watching a crap stream onlineJermain wasn't getting tagged with huge shots until he got tired.
