I think Taylor is shitting himself - I thought he would win fairly easily before this.

Changing my mind and think Froch may KO him now

Hope so

They all agree in the end.

Call me Da Guru!

froch needs to KO him, simple as that. froch ships too many shots to beat a skilled marquee fighter on points.

Agreed. That kind of sums up my feelings about Froch. I don't want to believe that, because he's entertaining and has a good pair of stones, but I still think it's the case.

Are you there Gomez? How many Brits have travelled to watch? Jammy buggers.

exactly carbo, i love froch to bits, one of my fave current fighters, because he fights !! hence my liking of haye too !! and benn...and honeyghan..

im not so blinkered that i dont realise froch has defensive issues, but hell, i hope his power is enough to overcome taylors slickness. in reality..and if my life was on it...i can see carl losing on points, but, im hoping he can land big, and early, and earn taylors respect, then break him down.

No commentating jobs for Taylor, after Froch pummels him into retirement.

Ouma had Taylor backing up at times.Forchs going to hurt him earlyor even make Taylor feel the weight id shot, then Taylor loses belief.

How many people known as punchers has Taylor fought?

Pavlik and Lacy? And he has been down against both..

Look at all the light midles!

Taylor's wins over Hopkins shows he knows how to deal with awkward boxers, Froch looks best when a boxer takes it to him, he gets to land his uppercuts and sharp right hands, i think this one is going to be a bit of a chess match to start off with.

50/50 fight for me,

That's just it. He may have got a Win and a Draw against both Hopkins and Winky. But both bouts could have gone anyway. Especially the Hopkins bouts, which many felt the weight drained and old Hopkins won.

When he faced Pavlik, he could not get away with the same mistakes he made against an old and weight drained boxer.

The same wight drained fighter than RAN from Eastman all night.

Jermain also RAN from Howard by ducking the fight to see who fought Hopkins.

Jermain does not like big punching Middles.

Froch is going to beat him up. No 50/50 anything. Froch by KO in 6.
