I actually like this fight.

I actually like this fight.

Me too and i just hope Taylor takes it because i have a feeling this one will go off!
Very interesting Clash of styles and very hard to call.
I just think Froch is flying high now and also think he's got a bigger heart and is the more hungry of the two.
I see Froch winning this and what a way to kick things off and get the US public onside it would be if he scalped Taylor in his own backyard!

Yeah, thats what I was thinking.

When Jermaine is threatened by Froch he may well start gunslinging as in the first Pavlik fight.

I've always liked Jermaine, he could have been my favourite fighter, but he seems to have (shudders) a Judah-like lack of confidence sometimes.

Same as and i remember watching Taylor on his way through the ranks years ago (think it was KOTV or the other one on Channel 5 that was on at some mad time in the early hours) and he used to go all out and looked the next big thing!!
I think it's all in his head as well and he just seems to switch off mid fight these days.
When Taylor turns it on he's brillant and is a much better fighter when attacking, problem is he doubts himself because of his lack of power i think.
I've lost all respect for Taylor now anyway and his attitude towards the fight game is embarrasing.

A lot of guys would kill for his talent and natural athleticism.
Steward seemed to think his hunger was killed by wealth and achievement.

I would dearly love to see him get that hunger back and like you said go all out, Im actually think he has plenty power when he does.
Its just when he boxes so defensively he fails to punch with authority.

Also if he did in the Froch fight it could be an absolute explosion!

[HattonTheHammer]

once again HBO shooting themselves in the foot

Took them 10 odd years of endless toney, johnson, griffin crap before realising the true great middleweight talent of the era was fighting no marks in cardiff, wales

Hatton had to literally beat down the door before they cottoned on to the fact he was the man at 140 who would dominate for years to come

and how the hell did fights such as eubank-benn, benn-mcclellan, eubank-watson etc end up on showtime
