Jones Joe andFroch V Taylor!!

BBC SPORT | Boxing | Jones jnr reveals Calzaghe clash

Interview with Jones Junior sheds some light on his fight with Joe and why the split with Warren, they've been negotiating directly.

Apparently Froch and Taylor will duke it out for the vacant WBC, never even envisioned this match up before, could be pretty entertaining and will def show us (finally)
where Froch is at. I pick Taylor be decision or late stoppage, despite his technical deficiencies I think Froch is quite strong and tough, but his power is overrated and he seems to stupidly rely on it alone.















Anyway, over to you Tam.

Finally Taylor will end the hype and shut big mouth Froch up.

Blimey! Froch could actually be fighting someone quality.

I hope (well couldn't care less really) Roy and Joe know what they're doing ditching all the promoters. ;D

Can't wait for Froch Taylor, the Cobra will prove he's for real by leaving Taylor in an unconcious sprawl around the 10th round, what a great fight!

Im Calzaghe mad and hate Froch his bums and that mouth but if im being honest Taylor vs Froch is a fight id rather watch that Calzaghe v Jones.

Taylor will put on a clinic against that SuperMiddleWeight version of Vic Darchinyan, Carl Froch.. I have seen a few of his fights and I aint really that impressed at all.. Carl is as one dimensional as they come and Taylor has a solid Chin, Taylor will just whip this guys ass plain and simple.. Like Bomp mentioned never ever imagined this fight coming off, kudos to Taylor for stepping up against a hype machine for his 1st SM fight

With Taylors technical ability and athleticism how do you figure he will get sparked by a chin leading neanderthal who makes Lacy's defense look like Winky Wright.. Taylor will knock this guy out

Taylor is gonna dominate Froch if it happens.

Would love it if this fight happens, and as a froch fan would love it if he finally stepped up there and beat taylor, whether or not it happens we shall have to wait and see, to be honest I think it'd have to be a career changing performance from froch.

I agree completely. Froch is not good enough to beat Taylor. Taylor in all likelyhood will jab and point his way to a convincing decision. Taylor deserves a lot of credit for coming back as well as he did from the Pavlik knockout. He's got heart and proved he can box well when its really needed.

Carl Froch has an excellent chance of beating Jermain Taylor. Carl will be the naturally bigger man and can punch. Froch has very good boxing ability and has fast hands. He can be abit lazy but so can Taylor.

This is in no way a formality for Taylor.

I'm in this camp, Froch simply hasn't faced anyone near Taylor'sa level, hasn't even fought a top 15 (20 even)SM, while Taylor's shared a ring with too sure fire HoFers and another who could potentially make it. He also showed a lot improvment in the rematch, could make an argument he won it if you watch it without the Youndstown commentary.

I think Taylor will get Froch to lead and win the fight with his jabs and back foot combos.

He cant get slack though as Froch easily has the biggest one punch power at 168lbs.

I don't care that Froch is a bit of a tit. I'd still love it if a no-defense hands-down fighter managed to spark out Taylor, Kessler etc. and be another British star. But let's face it, it's highly unlikely, isn't it? Couple that with the fact that Froch will inevitably be a tit in the runup to the fight, talking about how he's going to destroy Taylor etc. and it's going to make for a great night when Taylor hands his arse to him in the ring. As good as Fraudly getting KO'd by Sprott. :)

Sounds like a sig bet :)

Froch will drop his hands and lure Taylor in. Taylor starts to come forward and opens up sensing blood and BAM! an uppercut from the Cobra sends him sprawling to the canvas and his trainer reaching into his kit bag for the smelling salts.
