    Duke McKenzie summed it up perfectly when he said "Carl might have won the fight, but he got exposed tonight, make no mistake about it"

    Taylor was hitting Froch almost at will and was running away with the fight.

    If Froch was fighting anybody other than Taylor, they wouldn't have gassed in the 12th and Froch would have going home minus his belt.

    Froch is an exciting fighter, but only because he's "KO or get KO'ed" type of fighter.
    I agree, Taylor shot himself in the ass in this fight. He had won like 9 or 10 out of 11 rds prior to the 12th in my opinion; he should have played it safe but he did not want it bad enough and Froch did I guess.

      Froch said that he could of started applying the pressure early on like round 5 and will do so next time.

      Froch didn't seem to have any urgency even in the dying seconds of the final round.

          It's not a hate thread.

          I like Froch, he's an exciting fighter, but I can see straight through his shoddy defense and overly telegraphed punches to discover he is only an above average fighter at best.

              Froch should fight Kessler,Bika so that we can see how really great he is!

              I also think that Froch would destroy Bute.
              Froch is a good fighter, top 3 super middleweight right now, but I'm sure that he would not beat Bute, Bute is fast,or faster than Taylor and look how Taylor dominated Froch for the first 6 rounds. Also, Bute has a lot more stamina than Taylor, he made a mistake against Andrade in his 12th round,but he has a lot of stamina. Also, Bute has a better chin than Taylor and Pascal. And Froch had difficulties to beat Pascal.

              Both I have to give respect to Froch,he has a lot of determination,he is strong and has a good chin.

                Neither will Taylor.
