[Tam Seddon]

COME ON FROCH ! I know your going to do this, I really have a good feeling taylor is made for you and your going to do a number on him. Im so happy that Froch is finally getting the chance to prove what he is in this fight and I do agree with the added pressure on Carl hes going to really show his true potential that maybe we havent seen before. Added pressure does result in a better fighter I believe at this world level, I think carl will be too much for Taylor and hes really going to feel the pace of the fight after the first 4 rounds. Im really solid on a Froch TKO 10th round

[CFH]

Against every logical fiber of my being I actually find myself cheering for Froch here (just a little bit).

Graham Houston picks Froch: CARL FROCH vs JERMAIN TAYLOR | FightWriter.

Anyone that isn't already spoken for up for a Sig Bet? Pause.

Can see Froch simply walking through Taylors punches and giving him a right old spanking after the 5th.
Think he'll break JT's heart then stop him around 10.

[Cortez The Killer]

Taylor has speed, decent power and a great jab. The guys he's had trouble with, Hopkins, Spinks are technicians. Seems like froch is a come forward power guy. i think taylor is going to punich him all night with the jab.

Taylor has looked amazing in his last two fights (even his 'loss' to pavlik in the rematch). He's a more confident fighter now and the bumps in his career are forgotten, I think the hopkins fights played a mind game and psyched him out for a while.

I pick Taylor UD.

What about Kelly Pavlik??

I'm gonna be cheering for Carl, I just have a gut feeling JT will be 'on song' for this one. If Froch wins I will be totally made up for the guy because all he has wanted to do was prove himself.

That's pretty much how I feel. After seeing and reading a few interviews with Froch, I've kind of done a 180. I think I was far too hasty in cultivating a dislike for the guy, he's no more arrogant that the majority of other boxers. I'll be cheering for him tomorrow, but I think Taylor has the tools to beat him rather impressively.

[hfahrenheit]

taylor on the cards... UD.

[Drago]

great news maybe not live but next best thing & not a bloody week later either!

i am hopin i dont know the result by then

thats gonna be hard work

come on froch!

[Tam Seddon]

Well my man its shine time and hes going to show a lot of people what he is made of today. One of my proadest momments in my life will be seeing Carl lifting that belt up tonight when he beats Jermain Taylor in what I know is going to be a memmorable night of boxing. I have not been as excited to see a fight since Hatton-Tszyu, I have that approach to the fight and I know Froch is going to do it. I have full confidence in you tonight Carl, I know you wont let the team down tonight son, we love you Carl lets do us proad son !!!!

[Drago]

yeah i am a little excited abt this one but gonna still wait for the replay on itv

When I typed that somewhere in my brain a neuron was not firing when it was supposed to but taylor gassed himself out, marginally missed ending the fight via KO victory for himself, and adjusted well in the next fight, It wasnt alike he looked like a fish out of water or anything.

I remembering thinking taylor won the rematch. It was a close fight, but JT had sharper punching, controlled the tempo, smart defense...pavlik higher work rate, it was close though. Not a bad performance off a rematch after getting fairly brutally ko'd. Glancing at Taylor's resume he is one of the more under rated guys in the spot. dont know much about froch myself, well have to wait until tonight.
