FROCH v TAYLOR - 25/4/09 - ITV1 Sunday replay!

[bzkfn]

WOW good win... i honestly thought Taylor would have won via KO because Froch uses his chin as defence.

but all in all good win for Froch.... i can see Joe coming out of retirement to school forch

I doubt Joe will bother. Froch will be chasing Bute and Pavlik now. Congrats Carl, I knew he could win it.

[CFH]

Fair play to Froch.....I hope he can fight Kessler and beats Kess's ass; tired of waiting for Mikkel to get up and figh someone.

I think Kessler would beat Froch handily.

[BULLDOGBOOGERS]

it makes ya wonder how he beat hopkins twice !!!

I agree with you sir. Still a big win for Froch tonight. Taylor just ran out of gas.

[Spicoli]

We could all go nationalistic and shite but man.....Froch did what many a Champion wont do,go to foreign soil and take it and made a statement in a huge way.

He ain't pretty and has some flaws but he got it done like a battler.It just caught up to Taylor all in a rush.Taylor is all balz but this might be it for him.

Dont get me wrong.You had better be proud of country and self...I am..but dont let it blind you to how it all washes out in the ring.A good win,is a good win period.a two way street though....

[Violent Demise]

Shut the fukk up Taylor. You don't deserve a fukking rematch.

you're not gunna start crying are you?

seriously, you are such a fucking fan boy. I've never known someone as bias towards english fighters as you.

LOL. I never been much of a Taylor fan. I just thought he'll beat Fraud. And if he had any stamina he would of.

I don't know if your stream (LOL) was fukked up or not. But you can't seriously tell me Fraud is actually good and believe it. Tell me your not just a lame UK groupie who can't see reality. Are you?

Yeah the trouble with Froch is he's a bit like a more skilled Andrade. He's more talented than Andrade and has the same granite chin but like Andrade he can be made to look slow and awkward by slick boxers.

His only way of beating Kessler would be to knock him out and I just don't see him doing that, Kessler is not a good matchup for Froch.

He'd do in Lucian Bute though, and even Alan Green

Him and Andrade would be great, Gatti Ward at 168

Right stream switch now, it's Lopez Penalosa. Will Juan Manuel blow him out in a round as well?

Damn Grand Prix on early morning as well, I ain't sleeping tonight

I strongly disagree with that statement, but this isn't the time or the place for that discussion. I certainly agree that nationality should in no way influence peoples opinions of a fighter.

well done Froch, i thought the fight was lost more by Taylor than won by froch tho. He deserved to lose for coming into a title fight not in condition to go 12. It didn't seem like an abnormally fast paced fight either.

i truly believe Froch has gotten to where he has almost purely on fitness. technique and skill wise he is almost unbearable to watch, but he masks it well with conditioning.

What a stupid fucking excuse, I can't believe people are actually clinging to this rather than giving Froch (and by extension Taylor) some credit. Taylor was showing no signs of serious fatigue until Froch started landing right hands.

I don't know Josh; Froch seemed to start landing more regularly only due to Jermaine being very slow to throw any punches until it started getting to the last minute or less of a round.

Jermaine shows his lack of conditioning and running hot in alot of fighs; this one no different. But in the end it is a poor excuse, for Jermaine to not be able to learn from his past mistakes. And I gotta give Froch credit cause' he can take a shot and he just came on and wanted to win; and came in shape. God 60% of boxing goes down o conditioning and Carl was in shape. I still think Froch is sloppy as hell and his chin can't hold up forever but he got it done tonight, and he should have learned some stuff tonight cause' he was in deep for a while.

He's similar to Andrade, but not all that similar. Andrade has a better chin and puts on pressure in a much more intense way. He's also better technically IMO, though I think Froch has more one-punch power from what I've seen. I'd love to see a Froch - Andrade fight.

I think Bute beats both of them and I'm certain Kessler does.

Do you think Librado Andrade is shit as well then because this was a better version of his fight with Bute.

How about James Toney when he fought Michael Nunn or Chavez against Meldrick Taylor?

It was a great win for Froch, he showed an iron resolve and the self belief of a true champ who thinks he can't be beat.

Yes he uses his face as his main form of defense but that's part of his appeal.

A KO of Jermain Taylor on his resume doesn't look bad, Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright wern't able to do it.

Everyone praised Pavlik when he came back from being almost out in the third to Taylor to knock him out.

Why shouldn't Carl get the same credit?

Fuck! Could somebody pm me a link for a JuanMa Lopez stream please?

I'd also appreciate it if someone could PM me a link as well.
