WBC extend deadline for Froch-Taylor title clash

[donnydarkoIRL]

I Think Froch would Knock Taylor 10 feet up in the air personally
then Bring on Kelly to really light up the division(s).
What a fight that would be!!

I would like to see this matchup with the winner facing Pavlik. But if Taylor wins (and there's a good chance) seeing him lose for a 3rd time would be just awful.

I don't think it will be any sort of eliminator.
Kelly seems conteneted to be a Middleweigfht champ for the time being.
He only followed Taylor in order to clean up any questions about his chin or to dispell any rumours of luck in his first win.

But there's no faces left in the Middles for Kelly and he's a natural Supermiddle plus if Froch beats Taylor then that would be the fight to be made.

I'm not sure how much big money fights matter to Kelly at this stage.

Obviously the bigger moeny is attractive, but he's a very young fighter.
He's really still on the first leg of his career so he has plenty of time to amass fame and fortune.

Your 100% correct when you say there are few name fighters left in the division, but there are a few defences he can have that will see him credited for defending at Middle.
Fighters like Rubio and Sturm could do for now and in the next couple of years perhaps Duddy or Lee will take their shots.
Arthur Abraham is also an option I had previously overlooked.

I would absolutely love to see a pavlik - froch fight! But to be honest I dont think the Taylor Froch fight will happen which is a shame! I really wanna see this

[Pugilistic]

I wasn't too keen on Froch in the past but every fighter deserves a chance.

a fight with Taylor is a good one for him as it is a big step up in class and would be a good win on his resume.

Same here, I really want him to get a meaningful fight though I think he deserves it.

People crititize his level of competition but it ain' this fault that no one good wants to fight him.

Since Pav can make $2.5 mill fighting the Locketts of this world, I guess he'd need a lot to gain to move up to SM soon. If the JC fight can't be made I don't see Pavlik rushing up any time soon, he's young enough to wait for the guys like Froch to really make a name for himself (IMO Froch not top level, but hopefully we'll find out in the next few months.).

I thought Taylor was gonna take teh easy route and go for Lacy .

Froch deserves this chance and I hope it happens for him

[Tam Seddon]

If taylor doesnt sign, hes a coward. simple as, people are actually fearing Froch at this momment and Inkin made that clear. There is no excuse for Taylor not fighting Froch other than he is scared. Its a step back to the top for Taylor, so why isnt he taking it

Taylor has fought Bernard Hopkins when he was one of the top P4P, Winky Wright when he was 2 P4P and Kelly Pavlik twice who might be the scariest guy in boxing, him or Cotto. He's not scared of Carl Froch.

Winky was never p4p number 2 was he? and even so Carl hits A LOT harder than winky wright can. Maybe after loosing to Pavlik twice he doesnt want to get involved with a live fighter like Froch. Lacy an easy oppanent for Taylor IMO.

I dont get why he wont fight Froch instead of Lacy, its for the WBC belt. Lacy is a complete bum and hes proved that in his last 3 outings. Froch is a true contender compared with Lacy.

Yes he was number 2 before and even on some lists after the Taylor fight. Froch is going to get exposed it's just a matter of who will do the exposing. Unless he revamps his game completely.

The reasons are quite simple. HBO wants him to fight Lacy. Lacy brings more money and is more highly rated.

Thats a real asshole type comment, wouldnt you agree... Froch has proved dick!!!!!! so I dont know were all this true contender crap is coming from

[JT Rock]

Taylor will expose the 168 pound version of Vic Darchinyan quite easily...

Pavlik needs to fight Arthur Abraham to really lock up the Middleweight division, I think thats the missing piece to Pavliks utter domination of the division, then he should move up
