    Hes not "very skillful" but I think hes more skilled than people give him credit for. People directly compare him to Margarito. But hes not a come forward volume puncher. He'll often wait for his opponent to punch and try to counter.

      yeah, it takes skill to have a decent chin, power and volume punching

          2)He beat pascal with no debate. Pascal is a entrmely elusive fighter with a good chin and decent power. Froch imo beat him comfortably. Great fight but it was no debate, he won.

          3) the jermane taylor myth. On my score card froch was one round down goin into the 12th. Primetime boxing had it evens goin into the 12th and the biased american judges had it a split ecision goin into the 12th, and we all know that the 12th round was watching jermaine taylor being bounced around the ring. Jermane yaylor is brilliant brilliant fighter who will school athor abraham.
          Pascals best win at 168 is?

          It doesn't matter to me how many rounds Froch won in the Taylor fight.
          When Taylor was fighting at high level in the early rounds, it was a one-sided beating. Froch didn't stand a chance before Taylors level went down.

          Froch will be defenseless against Kessler and Abraham.

                I'm starting to do more research on "The Cobra." I haven't seen a full fight of his yet, but from what i've seen, it looks like he knows what he's doing. I like how he goes all out in the ring. And for Froch to start competing in the States is a good move for him. I totally missed the Froch/Taylor fight, but i heard about it. I'm gonna watch his next fight on Saturday.

                  Most people have only seen the taylor fight and he went the wrong way about that fight. Truth is that hes a good boxer and is descent. I have him beating dirrell and kessler taking it all

                    I've never seen Kessler fight, is he really that bad? Not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good.

                      I think he is. He has a lot of good atributes. Look for the calzaghe fight. Is a really good fight showing good techinque from both
