    The British ones were much better
    Nothing new there.

      For eleven rounds i was pissed off at Froch for fighting a poor fight, Taylor was giving Froch a lesson and was cruising until the last few rounds.
      I didn't see that finish coming tho, Froch got out of there with the skin of his teeth lol, needs to work on keeping his hands up, still happy he won tho

        The thing to remember here is Froch wasn't at his best against an opponent who was razor sharp for much of the fight - and still won.

        Froch can improve a hell of a lot whereas Taylor can't.

        In a re-match (on home soil) I'd pick Froch to win by KO far earlier.

          Cant believe that he won it with 15 seconds left. Absolutely cant believe it. £28 down the drain for me. Taylor should have just clinched like a bastard for the last minute.

          EDIT:Also as much as I dislike Froch props to him for pulling that KO off.

          Lastly props to Taylor for not being a sore loser.

              I agree, was better with the ITV4 commentary.

                Great fight by both fighters in the end, Even though Froch was down on the scorecard you just knew something is coming towards the end of the fight.

                  Aye I got that feeling too, I was hoping Taylor was just voluntarily taking it easy in the latter rounds but I had a dodgy feeling that Froch wasnt going to give up the fight that easily.

                    Rubbish commentary from ITV4. Showtime was much more exciting. I hate John Rawling.
