Froch v Taylor - Goes to purse bids on Friday!!

[skel1983]

"The stumbling block is that HBO, part of Time Warner, aren't thought to be keen on Froch."


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

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.

[smashup]

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.

I seem to remember Larry Merchant being disgusted at Taylor in a post fight interview and also remember Steward being disgusted with him and ripping his head off in the corner (same fight).
The tounging i mentioned was aimed at the wanker who is Lou Dibella who like Taylor is just in it for the cash
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?

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

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.

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.

So now you can appolagise or i'll ban you

Did you lot watch the same fight as i did, Froch v Pascal, cos your comments surgest "not" It was a great fight between 2 boxers who where up for it,and Carl proved he could take a punch, as well as give one, and go deep into the well, and still find more, As for TAYLOR Froch would stop him inside 8 rounds, cos he is to big and strong, and hits harder than TAYLOR, and Taylors best days have gone, PASCAL would give Taylor, a good fight,and i could see Pascal winning that one, Taylor has lost, his fights that really count, in the higher wht divisions, and he will lose against Froch as well, Carl will never get the acllaim he deserves, cos the likes of Taylor, Calzaghi, ex, don't really want to fight him, his style and punch, they don't fancy.

[smashup]

I don't think a lot of people realise that Carl fought Pascal with a cracked rib and a peforated ear drum and still gave me my personal fight of the year.
To fight like that and that hard given those two injuries just proves what he (Froch) is...a genuine warrior.
Most fighters would have called it off until they were a 100% but Carl wasn't in that position due to age mostly and he had to take that opportunity no matter what!
These are facts.
Oh and Eagle...don't compare Froch to TAylor in terms of "Only in it for the money and not the glory" because Carl got where he is today the Old School way and by that i mean he won British and Commonwealth titles etc...
I think given those facts and his age only a fool would suggest he was purely in it for the cash.
Carl invests in property and is a well educated man if the truth be known and is more than comfortable financially.
He's the real deal basically
Again these are facts.

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.

Apart from that i feel our World level boys are top notch really and it ain't hard seeing as we only have 4 to 6 who can lay claim to that anyway!
Answer your question?
And don't worry fella i feel un-mocked

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!

[Violent Demise]

Taylor days of fighting B level fighters are over. They ended 4 years ago. HBO should be given credit for refusing to show this disgraceful mismatch. Instead there being bad mouthed. Unbelievable. Taylor is looking for big fights. Competitive fights. Fraud ain't it. He's a paper champion. What champion did he beat for the title? Oh that's right. He didn't. The title was vacant. All he had to do was go life and death with fringe prospect Pascal to get it. Yeah stuff of legends there.

so hes gone up to a B level fighter now VD ? he must be doing something right for you to say that

You know me. I call it like I see it. Unbiased as they come.

I see Froch beating Taylor if they meet, never really thought that much abt taylor, thought he was lucky to get 2 verdicts over Hopkins personally
