    I disagree, I think he is a great fighter, just was to early on in his career for him to fight froch

    Not a great fighter but a good fighter.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    you are the old man, boy. Jermaine Taylor was close to an ATG and if you dont think so you are really , really confused.

    Jermaine Taylor's his resume may not be ATG but it is an ass-kickin resume, and Froch beat this guy. Froch is ATG.
    Here is Jermaine Taylor's highlights. Yeah he ran out of gas against Abraham and Pavlik as well. His record now is:
    won 33 (KO 21) + lost 4 (KO 3) + drawn 1
    rounds boxed 261 KO% 54.05

    TAYLOR RAN OUT OF GAS BUT WAS AHEAD ON 2 OF 3 JUDGES' SCORECARDS WHEN FROCH WON:

    The rec speaks for itself he was a great middleweight, a nothing super middleweight. Plain and simple. I don't see how Froch can be an ATG. He lost to the 2 best fighters he came up against.

    Yea brock Talyor was really good at mw but even before Froch Pavlik kicked his ass. Talyor did nothing at smw and not a good win to have same with Abraham nothing at smw really. Froch was never the man at his weight class and has loses to best in his division not really atg maybe a hof. I am not saying Froch is shit but atg a big title to have and for a guy who was always number 2 or 3 and never number 1 at 168 i think that title is not for him. His resume is good but not good enough to point you can over look him never being the best.
