For me I thought Magee beat Tsypko and Oakey.

Guys, you seem to talk about Magee in very disparaging terms. Fact is he has world class skill but a zero class chin. Magee would give any world champ problems - kessler included. The problem is his chin will let him down, and froch knew this throughout their fight.
Not really Ted, like I said, I thought Magee would trouble Froch, and so he did. The people saying it was going to be a white wash are the ones who where disparaging towards Magee.

I didn't see the Typsko fight, but people say it was close - I did however see a worn out Reid have Magee all over the shop and down four times, and I also saw face first brawler Toney Oakey decision Magee.

You can't just single out Typsko and ignore the facts of other fights.

Froch is an enigma, you either believe in the guy or you have reservations - I fall into the later camp.
Fair enough. i wasnt really talking about yourself, the thing about magee is he outboxed reid, but fell 4 times (sky even had him winning on pts even WITH the kd's) :o
That reid had just come off a controverisal german decision against ottke - basically he would have been a double world champion fighting magee - if it wasnt for german cheating!

Froch vs Taylor
Haye vs Klitschko
Hatton vs Pacquiao

We're lucky. All 3 are underdogs though. It's going to be tough.

I see the fight being about 60-40 in favour of Taylor at the moment. Froch needs genuine World class power to win this.
