    thankfully we all know better and knew that the fight was pretty even going into that last round. Froch just didnt turn up for the 1st half of the fight but it was clear for all to see that once he established himself he was the dominant fighter and the only guy likely to KO his man.

    kessler and froch are the standout talents in this comp and i fully expect it to be the 2 battling it out at the end for the title
    Taylor was leading on all cards, Froch went down... how can you say that you saw Froch ahead? I saw the match with east european language (I would say polish or Tchek but I am not certain) so I didn'T had Showtime to convince me and I clearly saw Taylor having the better for most part of the fight and convincingly and not being especially a fan of neither, I can't be biased based on that

    Sorry mate but Taylor wasnt leading on all cards these were the cards going into the last:

    judge: Nobuaki Uratani 102-106 | judge: Omar Mintun 102-106 | judge: Jack Woodburn 106-102

    So judge Woodburn has Froch winning 106102, if the fight finished I had it a draw with a 10-8 round for Froch, or if Froch had Taylor down again if it didnt stop I had it Froch winning by a point, the fight was very close.
    I think Taylor was 3, maybe 4 rounds ahead after 11. If Taylor had've made the bell (even if he hadn't been dropped again) it would've been at 10-7 to Froch, so it could be argued that Froch would've been worth a draw without the stoppage. He was clearly well behind going into the 12th though

    Going into the 12th and taking official scorecards away I had Froch needing the KO. Thing is, he delivered. Sign of a true champ IMO.

    Abraham likes to fight kind of like Bernard Hopkins, he'll give up the first 3 rounds or so and then turn it on for the rest of the fight....IF JT can pace himself he'll have a very good chance at winning, but he's going to have to use the jab and footspeed to dodge any punches from AA as Abraham has some very underrated power
