    With the Super 6 Final only weeks away,lets have a look back at a fight a lot of Froch haters said he was 15 seconds from losing,in fact,many said he was being "schooled" by Taylor.
    Had Jermaine made it to the final bell,and won by decision,would it have been a fair result ?
    Here are rounds 7-12,try to remain impartial,forget the haters and there oppinions,listen to the commentary team,and also pay attention to the Press Row scores.I'm not saying there correct,but it does question whether a Taylor win would have been the correct decision.

    The judges had it way too much for Taylor; even the commentators AND press row had Froch 2 down by round 12 which if you take the KD into account makes the fight a draw.

    This was all down to Hennessey being a stupid promoter & agreeing for Froch to take his 1st defence in the US with no stipulations and before Showtime cared about Froch.

    I can't remember my exact scoring but I'm pretty sure Taylor was up by a round or two at the time of the stoppage.

    A lot of people had it the same way going into the 12th.

    This is how I had it. So Froch was probably heading to a one-point win if the fight had continued because Taylor was surely going down a second time.

    Had Froch lost by a point,i don't think many would have made a fuss,but the general concensus in some circles,is that Froch was on the receiving end of a one sided beatdown,till Taylor gassed with a minute of the last round remaining.:huh

    Taylor was winning and probably could have took a knee or 2 at end of fight and Win By a SD. Taylor was whooping Frochs ass!

    Yeah,rather inaccurate in reality.In all truth though,he couldn't have argued much even with a two point margin given it was his first big fight in the States.Think you need to build up a line of credit when you're trying to get your name out there.

    It was a close fight, the whole "froch was getting schooled for 11 and a half rounds" is laughable but i do think J.T had it by a point on the cards, if he went down again though then i guess a draw
