He deserve it, yes, but will everyone stop making Carl the new best thing since the sliced bread, he got his VACANT belt with a ugly fight with Pascal and barely beat a middleweight who has done nothing at 168lbs. He is a champ, he ktfo Taylor but aside from that...i dont see nothing special here.
so where's rickx's dumbass, sabbbrolls, or zorryt when you actually ask for a reason froch will win? what a joke. back up your opinion or log the **** off.
They all had to go to the pharmacy. Posting an analysis that leads to a Froch win requires the ingestion of several more ****** pills!
this is a good analysis, but here are the answers to your questions. 1) bhop does have the speed of taylor. in fact, his hand speed is better than taylors. 2) he IS better conditioned than taylor. bernard has always been one of the most well-conditioned fighters in the game. 3) bhop definitely has the power to trouble froch. and he WILL be bothering him, especially since he'll be basically hitting him at will. 4) froch most definitely CANNOT take the fight to bhop without being coutered. hopkins is gonna counter his slow ass all night long. 5) bernard IS invincible to a fighter like froch. he's taylor made for hopkins. :yep ...and you can't simply say bernard is old and father time will catch up to him at some point. that's what everyone was saying when he fought pavlik and look what happened. nard knows his limits and he is always in shape. trust me he will stop fighting when he thinks he can no longer handle it.
For the record,not once did i predict a Froch win,what i have said is it will not be the one sided steamrollering that we witnessed with Pavlik.Pavlik was too small,too weak,and too predictable.Froch is none of the above,he's a big strong smw with massive self belief and will never give up.Pavlik realised after the second round he was beat and went belly up.Taylor was 14 seconds away from nothing,Froch realised Taylor was feeling the weight of his punches and was starting to blow from the middle rounds.
im english and i say hopkins ud by 4 or 5 rounds, something like 116 - 112. I think froch should be commended for taking the fight and he has a good enough chin to finish the twelve, he just doesnt have the boxing skills to beat nard imo. If it happened and nard won the wbc belt he should go out on top and hang em up, doubt he would though. Also if some how froch did win just imagine how badly he'd lay into joe c with the bs trashtalk he loves to do so much.
I watched the froch/taylor fight (although not live thanks to shitty uk tv) and one think seemed very obvious, froch didnt have great footwork or movement and he keeps his hands stupid low naseem hamed style. Now, i also watched nard/pavlik (live, i may add) and the skillful shots he was landing all night long, leads me to believe he does the same to froch, and i havn't even talked about nards defensive skills.
Thanks. Yeah i like it, roy when he was rj. When that picture was taken imo he was one of the greatest ever.
