I doubt Joe will bother. Froch will be chasing Bute and Pavlik now. Congrats Carl, I knew he could win it.Quote:

I agree with you sir. Still a big win for Froch tonight. Taylor just ran out of gas.Quote:

I don't know if your stream (LOL) was fukked up or not. But you can't seriously tell me Fraud is actually good and believe it. Tell me your not just a lame UK groupie who can't see reality. Are you?
Yeah the trouble with Froch is he's a bit like a more skilled Andrade. He's more talented than Andrade and has the same granite chin but like Andrade he can be made to look slow and awkward by slick boxers.Quote:

He'd do in Lucian Bute though, and even Alan Green ;)
Him and Andrade would be great, Gatti Ward at 168 :cool:
Right stream switch now, it's Lopez Penalosa. Will Juan Manuel blow him out in a round as well?
Damn Grand Prix on early morning as well, I ain't sleeping tonight :-\
I strongly disagree with that statement, but this isn't the time or the place for that discussion. I certainly agree that nationality should in no way influence peoples opinions of a fighter.Quote:

Jermaine shows his lack of conditioning and running hot in alot of fighs; this one no different. But in the end it is a poor excuse, for Jermaine to not be able to learn from his past mistakes. And I gotta give Froch credit cause' he can take a shot and he just came on and wanted to win; and came in shape. God 60% of boxing goes down o conditioning and Carl was in shape. I still think Froch is sloppy as hell and his chin can't hold up forever but he got it done tonight, and he should have learned some stuff tonight cause' he was in deep for a while.
Fuck! Could somebody pm me a link for a JuanMa Lopez stream please?
He's similar to Andrade, but not all that similar. Andrade has a better chin and puts on pressure in a much more intense way. He's also better technically IMO, though I think Froch has more one-punch power from what I've seen. I'd love to see a Froch - Andrade fight.Quote:

I think Bute beats both of them and I'm certain Kessler does.
how does freddy roach have time to train gerry when pacman is around....
Do you think Librado Andrade is shit as well then because this was a better version of his fight with Bute.Quote:

How about James Toney when he fought Michael Nunn or Chavez against Meldrick Taylor?
It was a great win for Froch, he showed an iron resolve and the self belief of a true champ who thinks he can't be beat.
Yes he uses his face as his main form of defense but that's part of his appeal.
A KO of Jermain Taylor on his resume doesn't look bad, Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright wern't able to do it.
Everyone praised Pavlik when he came back from being almost out in the third to Taylor to knock him out.
Why shouldn't Carl get the same credit?
I'd also appreciate it if someone could PM me a link as well.Quote:
