    Too bad his defense and technical skills suck. Froch is an insult to the sweet science.

    i wouldn't go that far. i don't like froch's lip, but i like him as a fighter because he's a throwback to the old fighters. he just wants to fight. unfortunately for him, he's not the most skilled, but he's a hard, well conditioned sob with a ton of heart.

    No, Taylor completely gassed. It's not like he hadn't done it a number of times before either.
     
  5. What he should have said is "I punch like a mule kicks"

    This is going to be like Sonny Liston trying to knock out Cassius Clay. Speed kills, guys. You're going to be shocked when you see Carl Froch get caught in "The Matrix".

    I think Taylor v Abraham is closest to call, probably fight of the round

    So what if he got tired allot of fighters get tired towards the later rounds. Why do you make the gassed comment all the time it is really not significant in anyway.

    I'm still rolling with Dirrell winning the opening fight vs Froch, but I've got nothing but respect for the Cobra as well. If nothing else, the man is truth serum- we're going to find out alot about Dirrell by how he fights and how he handles a tough, gutsy son of a ***** like Froch.

    Wait Carl who?
    The guy who won the title from.... oh wait a vacant title lol.
    Isn't this the other brit who tries to emulate speed boxers, like Ali and RJJ. He's about as fast as mayonnaise. My goodness, trot along mule trot along.
    I haven't watched Dirrell fight, but I'll put him as a 4 to 1 favorite against Froch anyday.
    Froch's longevity in this sport rests on him keeping his hands up, for the few fights he has left. Carl "the punching bag" Froch.

    Are you trying to say he doesn't 'sting like a butterfly and float like a bee?' :blood

    I think the word you're looking for is trot. He likes to trot like a butterfly.

    Froch is very determined fighter and is afraid to fight no one.
