    It was only myself and Tam Seddon on this site who clearly stated that Froch would win a world strap and we both said this years ago when everyone else dismissed it as b*llshit.
    And if Froch was from any other country i'd still support him...
    So his hands are low? So what?
    He's exciting and entertains and has (In abundance) something that the fighters you have mentioned don't!!
    It's called character, personality...assh*le!
    Which is why most of the fighters like Mundane get little respect from me really.
    They bore me and bring me little excitement.
    I do have massive respect for Kessler for the way he gave Calzaghe a close fight.
    He's a Dane ain't he?
    we will keep the faith smashup, just the wait till Taylor is on the mat mate like in the Pavlik fight
    hahaha Yes mate!!
    To be honest i don't think Taylor want's anything to do with Carl and is swerving him at all costs
    He knows Carl's too much for him.
    Hey Smash, Is there a world-level British fighter you don't favor over an American fighter? Just Curious, no intention of mocking you mate.

    Its a great shame because Taylor has so much potential and he needs to realise that the best way of using it is by facing fighters like Froch. If he stays at 168 he will have to face him some day because im confident that Carl is going to be a unifed champion by the end of the year. I think Carl should just get the mandatory out of the way with in order to focus more on fighting Kessler if Taylor is just being a chicken!

    If those wankers at HBO took their tounges out of the "home fighters" asses for a while and looked around then they'd know that Carl Froch is the most exciting SM about...
    Fox TV screened this fight TWICE over xmas so true fight fans must know about Froch and know he's the real deal and will batter Taylor silly!
    Did no one at HBO see the Pascal fight.....

    Carl Froch world title fight goes to purse bids
    Haha i think it is funny how you tell the HBO guys to get their tongues out of their home fighters asses when u are the most one eyed Brit boxing fan ever. I saw the Pasal fight and i saw Froch have a hard time with a very limited fighter, this hardly makes him the worlds most exciting SMW!Taylor, Kessler, Bute, Andrade, Bika, Mundine, Miranda, would all beat Pascal as easily if not easier than Froch.

    For god sake Mundine is a joke, a disgrace to boxing, but his level of competition shits all over Frochs! Ottke, Kessler, Soliman, Green, Echols. Even Shannan Taylor would be Frochs second toughest opponent. Im saying this as an Aussie about an Aussie, if i took your line of thought i'd go on about how everyone is dodging Mundine and he is the most underrated fighter in world boxing or something.

    If Carl was not British you'd be the first to say he is a sloppy fighter with bad defense, and limited skill.

    I guess what im trying to say is dont have a go at another country for suporting there home fighters when u do it ten time more your way. Dont be a fanboy.

    God u talk rubbish when it comes to Froch. U'd still support him as much if he wasnt british. As if! Character and personality? Talking yourself up and acting like a royal prick more like it.

    Well done u predicted he would win a world title, but he has never beaten a champ. Fighting Pascal for a title is a joke he was barely in the top 10 168 fighters in the world. Froch did not even deserve a shot with his shockingly poor opponents list.

    U have a go at Taylor and Dibella for being in boxing just for money, so fucken what? What makes u think Froch is in it just for glory? 99% of fighters are in it mainly for the money.

    Mundine gets little respect from u cos he is not British, if he was u'd be his number one fan.

    Lets see Mundine fights poor opponents, talks himself up to be much better than he is, and wins paper titles against unworthy opponents.... Sound familiar? Substitute Frochs name with Mundine and those sentences would still be true.

    Oh and i hope your proud to call me an asshole, how long did it take to think that up?

    Called you an A**hole? You've taken my words out of context - "Asshole" meaning Guts or Guile or Spine is what that meant Eagle...
    Think you need to read my post properly before making silly allegations.
    I'm well above resorting to name calling Eagle..... you know silly childish things like "Prick"......which is why i'm a Mod.

    Your obviously upset about something and seem a very angry man....
    Is everything OK in your life?
    PM me ...maybe i can help

    Ok u didnt call me an a hole. I am not angry i just think Froch has proved very little so far, and does not deserve the respect u think he does. Pascal is just a bit player in 168 division and is nothing to brag about. If Carl cleans up the 168 division you'll be right an di'll be wwrong if he gets beat at his first real step up i'll be right.

    Me too and i just hope Taylor takes it because i have a feeling this one will go off!
    Very interesting Clash of styles and very hard to call.
    I just think Froch is flying high now and also think he's got a bigger heart and is the more hungry of the two.
    I see Froch winning this and what a way to kick things off and get the US public onside it would be if he scalped Taylor in his own backyard!

    Yeah, thats what I was thinking.

    When Jermaine is threatened by Froch he may well start gunslinging as in the first Pavlik fight.

    I've always liked Jermaine, he could have been my favourite fighter, but he seems to have (shudders) a Judah-like lack of confidence sometimes.

    Same as and i remember watching Taylor on his way through the ranks years ago (think it was KOTV or the other one on Channel 5 that was on at some mad time in the early hours) and he used to go all out and looked the next big thing!!
    I think it's all in his head as well and he just seems to switch off mid fight these days.
    When Taylor turns it on he's brillant and is a much better fighter when attacking, problem is he doubts himself because of his lack of power i think.
    I've lost all respect for Taylor now anyway and his attitude towards the fight game is embarrasing.

    I like Froch a lot but I think Taylor outboxes him in this matchup.

    HBO are a fucking joke, if they are not keen on this fight? WTF!!

    Froch is still a bit untested at this stage but the guy fights like a warrior has a great style to watch comes to fight and holds the most prestigious belt in the world.

    Sorry i have forgot maybe HBO fancy Taylor against Lacy 2 seen as the first fight was a close call, if HBO dont fancy this fight they are a disgrace imo, this fight i would be eagarly anticapated by anyone who knows about boxing worldwide.
