He beat Hopkins twice over twelve rounds and his last three losses were due to poor preparation on top of stamina troubles. He was a champ and did the best he could considering his problems. Froch on the other hand is one tough son of a bitch but when is he going to learn how to box. He lunged so many times that I thought they were filming another Superman sequel. His left hand was low enough to shake hands with a roach. He won and Taylor is a big question mark. Both men need teachers instead of trainers, especially Froch but his so called granite chin was chipped a bit but he did outlast Taylor. Until someone has proof to the contrary he is somewhat of a hard man, so far.

What I like to say is Jermain is one of the elite fighter's for the first six rounds. Then he just get's winded and stops throwing and start's backing up. People say Taylor don't have power they are full of shit. As he did knock Froch down,and Pavlik something that people forget when Hopkins dismantled Pavlik. Taylor to me now is somewhat of a tragic story. Has all of the tools to do a number on anyone but lacks the stamina to keep doing it. The thing is he just goes balls to the wall so early. As I watched that fight I kept thinking of Larry Holmes for soem reason. Then in it dawn's on me. Taylor just kept trying to bomb Froch out with counter right hands but he never really took his time and set up the right hand with his always solid jab. I couldn't help but think of Holmes because Taylor just reminds me of him if only he would box with his jab and look to throw the right hand later. I honestly thought if Taylor stuck with his jab the entire night it would have been a cake walk for him. All credit to Froch though he did show why he is the champ. Amazing.
