Right. HBO apparently isn't interested in the Froch v. Taylor fight.

Glen Johnson unless he gets old overnight would get up in Taylor's ass.
the other two he wins.
Because Froch went life and death with Pascal? Right. I'm sure Taylor, who fought Hopkins (twice), Winky (almost twice), and Pavlik (twice) is terrified of Carl Froch. The guy Taylor just fought and beat in his SMW debut has proven more than Froch (I'm not saying Lacy is necessarily better than Froch, but he's proven more).

I'm annoyed by Froch and the Froch hype. More ridicule please.
Can't see Roy fighting Taylor. He knows he's finished. You could tell by the way he was just content to go 12 against a man he would have schooled back in the day in his last fight.
Well im English and im not on the Carl Froch bandwagon at all, his defense is alarmingly bad. And his reflexes are certainly not cobra like either, to be fair he did have an injury in the Jean Pascal fight so he wasn't 100 percent.
But i've never been sold on the Carl Froch hype i think he is very beatable, by most of the top Super Middleweights. Although i don't think its his fault in the last 2 years why he hadn't stepped it up quicker. Remember he was gonna face Denis Inkin and he pulled out, he's called out Joe Calzaghe/Jermain Taylor.
So its not like he is afraid to fight the best, but i do think he would get taught a lesson from Jermain Taylor if they fight.
I do like Froch's apparent desire to go up against the best, it's respectable. However, much like Oumafan, I'm sick of all the Froch hype. He's proven very little so far IMO and to imply that a former champ who has fought some of the best fighters in the world would be afraid of him is laughable. He has power, but his lack of defense will be his downfall when he steps up is class.
Out of the 3 names mentioned by Taylor and his camp only 1 is not an old man. Taylor is mandatory contender and it shows where the alphabet mess has got us when it is the No.1 contender deciding who he fights rather than the Champion.
Give Froch a chance I say - If he can't beat the overated Taylor then he just isn't good enough. Let Taylor prove it rather than fighting the shot Roy Jones.
