      He better make sure he comes to fight...

      It'd be nice to see the Jermain from the 2nd B-Hop fight who fought harder in the later rounds...

        I hope he doesn't use the I overtrained excuse after Abraham ices him.

            Jermain may overtrain...

            Lets hope he doesn't peak to early.

              It impresses me to see fighters actually weighing in at the official weight on fight night.

                I'm becoming more and more nervous.

                I hope he didn't peak too early. I'm very curious to see the weigh in pictures to see what he looks like.

                  Does anybody Taylor's weight one week before the Froch fight?

                  In any case it looks like Jermain means business.

                    I think he'll be fine. Hmmm starting to believe Taylor can pull this out
