    I'm a Brit and I picked Taylor. Didn't think Froch had it in him.

    Didn't mind being proved wrong :lol:

    I picked Taylor, not because I am American though. I am not really a huge fan of Taylor, I just thought he would win... which he almost did. Props to Froch for really wearing him down.

    I had picked Taylor to win. It seemed like he would until the last 50 seconds.

    As did I. I never discounted or belittled Froch's chances, just could NOT cheer against one of my top FAVE fighters. I really thought JT had it, esp. in the 3rd and again after the 6th.....BUT next thing I know Mr. Froch is pounding my guy to the floor to stay.

    Congrats Froch fans...:deal

    As did I or real close to that. Taylor's speed showed all thru the fight, made Mr. Froch look almost silly every time he tried an uppercut and a couple of others. BUT, that's part of what gets me the most! If only JT would have clinched FFS!! 15 forkin' seconds to the bell, and he couldn't hold on.

    Props to the Cobra's killer instinct to go for the kill, when Taylor should have done the same in the 3rd.

    I picked Taylor and had already mapped out his path to a 168 mega unification fight with Mikkel Kessler...

    It didn't really get beyond the first stop.
