    Also, Lopez was huge against Jerry. Lopez looked like 15 pounds bigger.
    Yeah Taylor needs to learn how to clinch when hurt, it could have been the difference between winning & getting knocked out!!!

    I just got on here today, have been away and don't want to read all the threads, but does anyone know what the cards looked like?

    Yeah it was a little off, interestingly though all of the press row at the fight, had it gone the distance would have had either Froch winning or at worst a draw.

    It wasn't nearly as one sided as people are making out. It's easy to make a case for Froch winning rounds 2, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11 and of course 12. If he would have won round 3 instead of being knocked down the impression of him wouldn't have been nearly as negative as it has been, it really was just one terrible round, and a couple of great Taylor flurries, the end of the 7th and I believe the 11th being the most notable.
