Well good luck to him, what a warrior, people can't say he was making excuses cos he won. So i guess it is true.

But a little worried when they said he was wobbled by the americans abuse, he needs to get used to that for this tournament. He's not always gonna be fighting in Nottingham.

How fit is his missus?!?!?!

Even he won the fight, its still an excuses for him being outboxed by Taylor.

And he had a broken rib when he beat Pascal right?

Yeah sure!

None are needed. Taylor did outbox him for most of the fight, but Froch slowly wore him down, took over and eventually stopped him, late as it was. Nothing to apologise for.. just different styles. I expect to see Dirrell and Abraham go much the same way. Scorecards mean nothing once the ref has stopped it.

wow imagine what a 100% healthy froch would have done to taylor

I disagree. Taylor lost the fight because of his stamina. Plain and simple. Nothing about Froch breaking him down, a simple knee would have won him the fight.

Simply its a excuses for being totally outboxed. He is trying to get his confidence up before facing the better boxer in Dirrell

you are wrong on 3 levels...

1) the hbo comentators had it level going into the 12th, one of the judges had froch winning by 4 rounds, these are american biased judges. In reality i had froch down by 1 or 2 rounds going into the 12th, even if he hadnt knocked out taylor it was a 10/8 10/7 round making it a draw/win for froch.#

2)It was a right hand that stopped taylor, ill post a video where the commentators said "right hands staggers taylor". So he did not gas out, taylors had 12 round fights and won them against winky wringt, hopkins twice and imo he beat pavlik second tme round.

3) But even if taylor gassed, thats boxing, thats not froch problem, froch has great cardio, perhaps taylor doesnt. Cardio is almost on par with having a good chin. If my auntie had balsl she would be my uncle. if ali had a poor chin he would habe been knocked out, if henry cooper didnt cut as easily he would ahve won more fights.

Taylor is not as atheltic as froch, so boo hooo...

Either way froch wins by dramtic kncokout....

Had Taylor taken a knee and wasted time. He would have clearly won the fight, no doubt about that. He totally outclassed and outboxed Froch, it was a clinic at times.

Taylor IMO lost to Pavlik in the second fight as well. He again just didn't do much. Taylor stamina is what costed him the fight, nothing much to do with Froch. Taylor threw 390 punches yet tired against Froch. Taylor was tired and Froch simply capitalized


Froch is using the blind as excuse for being outboxed. I don't even know how you can NOT even see that.

I would agree Froch is more athletic Taylor. Heck Taylor doesn't even have a 6 pack.
