Fair Play To Froch

[clintuk]

Why not Pavlik vs Froch i mean look at the job Pavlik did on Taylor it was way more impresive to me and its not like Pavlik has alot going on.

Maybe after Pavlik v Mora they'll think about it, but I think Arthur Abraham has his sights on Pavlik after that, which also has the potential to be a cracking fight. Course, that's if Pavlik beats Mora..

I think Taylor certainly deserves a rematch, his stamina may be out the window but he had Carl down in the 3rd and was ahead in the 12th by most people's cards. Makes sense for that to be Carl's next fight I reckon.

I don't see the point in a rematch from Froch's point of view. He only has something to lose. A rematch would be another 50/50 fight for Froch who already has the win, and by knockout. Taylor had no belt and his reputation is now lowered, its just a massive risk for little reward. Even if he wins, he's only beating a guy he already beat.

I'd rather he went for another title, Bute would be the dream fight for me or if not that European dude who beat Dennis Inkin to win a vacant strap.

He's not ready for Kessler or Calzaghe and should give them a wide berth.

Win a couple belts first.

Yeah I totally see your point mate, I just think for Taylor to be ahead on points and then get KO'ed right at the end, in my mind makes it so he deserves a rematch.

But as you say, for Carl, it's not as much of a profitable prospect. I would expect Froch to aim high and go for the other belts, now that he's made his US appearance and won, other fighters will start to take notice.

For Froch to take the rematch with Taylor would be like when Margarito turned down Cotto to fight Paul Williams, when Juan Manuel Marquez felt it would be a good idea to go to Indonesia to fight Chris John or when Raphael Marquez thought Isreal Vazquez deserved a second chance.

Why take the risk?

Also from Taylors point of view too. I know he'd like to avenge the loss but why go after a big puncher who already took everything you could throw at him and then knocked you out?

Taylor should look to fight someone easier to get himself back in the mix. Jean Pascal Froch's last opponent would be a good matchup, maybe he can try and call out Roy Jones.

There's even the possibility of a fight with Paul Williams, I think a lot of people would be interested to see how that would pan out and a chance to get right back into the big time if he wins.

There are far more easier and sensible fights for both fighters right now.

In winning this fight by KO Froch basically hauled himself out some serious quicksand. Only an idiot would then wade back in and try and fight for their life all over.
