    Who Was Beating Froch More Emphatically Before They Got TKOd - Groves Or Taylor?

    Both Jermain Taylor and George Groves were beating Carl Froch on points before their fights were stopped but who do you think put on an overall better performance against Froch before the stoppages?

    Taylor, he was more composed and didn't start fading as early as Groves did.

      Taylor was doing better IMO and I had him further ahead.

        Groves, narrowly imo but like Froch said, scorecards are irrelevant when there's a knockout.

            Picked Groves, not by a huge distance but Groves was out toughing the toughest guy in the division, along with out muscling, out thinking, out punching, out working and out jabbing Froch. Taylor only did a fraction of those things. In fact I didn't really see Taylor out muscle Froch at any point, there was a KD but nowhere near the quality of Groves.

              Neither were beating Froch "Emphatically" ( Though I had both ahead ), but I was far more impressed by Groves against a seasoned Froch than Taylor against a green Froch.

                I chose about equal,,, taylor probably did better as he was ahead on cards in the 12th before the ko,, but groves nearly ko'd froch, taylor dropped froch, but froch was nowhere near as shook up as he was in the groves fight,,,

                    Taylor because he wasn't getting hurt by the mid way point
