    IMO he beat a washed up guy in Taylor. I give Froch a ton of credit for seizing the moment but Taylor is just damaged good.

      Froch is a decent fighter. He gives angles that make him difficult to hit but it looks like he has balance/footwork issues. Great chin tough fighter overall but wasn't all that impressed watching him take out Jermain like he did.

        People really need to stop saying that. There is nothing about Froch that makes him difficult to hit. If you swing, you will hit him flush on the face... every single time.

            He has balls and is a decent fighter. JT is far more skilled than Froch but he came on late to win. Whats not to like?

                Froch's got a great chin but I'd like to see him fight someone who doesn't get gassed after 6 rounds. He's extremely easy to outbox but he has power so whomever fights him must watch out.

                  He's good, but he's still got a lot to prove.
                  I agree, and he can start by refraining from leaving his guard down....that's inviting trouble

                    Do you guys think he has a future making fights in the states?
                    nothing special. Taylor is a ***** and fought like one. Taylor is a slightly better version of Judah. He has all the physical tools but he is a mental midget.

                    Froch's victory was alright but if Taylor had the mental capacity, he would have finished Froch off after the knockdown.

                      I still think he's very amatuerish. I give him credit for beating taylor, but taylor is a gatekeeper.
                      He needs to refrain from letting his left hand ....guard down...too easy to get hit
