    I don't respect either. I bet on Froch, which is the only reason I'm happy he won. I hadn't seen him fight until last night.

      I wouldn't want to see JT KO'd twice in a row, that's just sad

        The guy was undisputed champion of the world and beat B-Hop twice. That deserves serious respect that isn't lost as the result of a 12th round warrior's defeat to a quality opponent.

          My respect for Taylor hasn't changed.

            I never did not have respect for him. I just knew he was not as good as people thought.

              My thoughts as well.

                I have great respect for him

                You never really know why he gasses..maybe he has a thyroid problem and adrenal problem...and has too much pride to use those as excuses... who knows really except for himself..Personally like i said yesterday i think he just wants to provide a good life for his family and that is all..and in my book thats a mans most important job...hes gracious in defeat and victory and a gentlemen and has already been undisputed middleweight champion

                  In my opinion, he never embarrassed himself in none of his 3 defeats.
                  Taylor is more embarrassing in victory than defeat...I don't think he beat Hopkins,and he couldn't even stop Judah KO victim Cory Spinks.

                  Taylor had a good run for a such a limited fighter...it's time he move on, while he can..because it won't get any better.

                      I believe Froch won moreso of what Taylor didn't do (finish him off in the 3rd, maintain his stamina, etc.) than what Froch did.
