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.
