    Kessler is irrelevant now. Stop talking about him. I've never seen a guy get so much praise for losing a fight. Will he ever again fight someone of note? My guess is that he will fight another mandatory (and maybe two) challenger in Germany for the sake of resolving his litigation with his promoters and that fight won't happen until the late summer early Fall. He won't fight another big name until early next year at which point the division will have sorted itself out some.

    Froch should cash in now. Go fight Bute In Montreal in a unification match and make a ton of money doing it or if Universum will allow it, which is doubtful, Balszay in Germany for the same. The Ward/Miranda winner isn't a big money fight and has the same risk. Same with Allen Green. Those fights aren't worth it as much.

    Definately a candidate for fight of the year. IMO taylor was lookin sweet, apart from runnin out of steam, and on that note, the only person who knows how hard froch hits is taylor, prob slowed him down just a touch in the later.

    I reckon that out of all at 168, taylor probably has the best boxin ability and hand speed. Froch will always struggle with hand speed due to his poor defense, but IMO no on else out there is as quick as Taylor. I'd love to see Froch fight Pavlik, that would be a war i'm thinkin.

    Rematch though, that'll all be down to Taylor, does he want it........

    Two Taylor conquerors - two big punchers. It would be an all-out war.

    i give credit to Froch, he made the most of his opportunity and stole the win from Taylor, the thing that pisses me off about this fight isn't the result, cause i have nothing against Froch, he showed heart, determination, and a warrior mentality, thing is i'm seriously questioning Taylor's dedication to the sport, his stamina was absolute crap, and it's no one's fault but his own that he lost the fight, going into the 12th i had the fight basically 9-2 or even 8-3 for Taylor plus the knockdown, he was dominating Froch while he used his JAB, which looked PERFECT last night, but he again stopped using the damn thing, i'd honestly like to see a rematch and if Taylor loses again he should just retire, wouldn't mind seeing Froch vs Andrade either

    Well I didn't see it but I'm a bit surprised, anyway good for him, seems he's got some heart, I could never root for anybody that annoying but at least he's backed it up a bit.

    He deserves a lot of praise for that win. What he lacks in skill he makes up for in heart.

    Glad you proved me wrong Froch

    I figured when Jermain lasted to the 11th he would hold or run his way thru the rest of the fight...

    I picked taylor to outbox and win a comfortable desicion, which by the scorecards he would have.. I always got the sense though that Froch could do what he did...

    When he was hitting Taylor there was a deep thud to his punches, so even though Jermain was blocking most he was still getting worn out

    Froch can punch, no doubt but his defense id atrocious. I would love to see him in there with Andrade
