    As a gambling man i'm having a hefty bet on the Taylor Froch fight.

    I'm convinced that Taylor is going to school Carl and the price of 10/11 on a Taylor win in my eyes is too big.

    Should i get a bit more creative tho and bet on a Taylor points win....about 13/8.....will Froch's chin hold up? I personally think it will but what do you guys think?

    His chin should hold up, I mean it is very good.

    However if Froch lets Taylor tee off on him like he did against Pascal we could see a similar situation to Mosley-Margarito.

    :lol:

    If anybody gets stopped I doubt it'll be Froch
    Froch to stop him late rounds 10-12 could be worth a few bob.Think I saw it at 9/1

    I agree, but the thing about Taylor is he hasn't really got much killier instinct. Even if he hurt Froch I don't think he would be all over him for a KO.

    If you look at the numbers, Taylor hasn't KO'd anybody in a long time.

    Taylor had Pavlik going big time in that 2nd round,letting him off the hook there was criminal

    Really can't see Taylor stopping him. Think you'd be wasting your money.

    Last time he got the "killer instinct" he blew his fuse against Pavlik, and ended up getting KO'd a few rounds later.

    The smart money here is on a Taylor UD.

    I don't think Pavlik was that badly hurt. By the end of that round he was almost back to normal.

    I was going to say..the only reason that ever happened was Pavlik was a clown and dropped his hands trying to showboat and thus got nailed by half a dozen flush power punches. Wasn't exactly a devastating display of power.

    Then again...Froch always ****ing does that.

    He was hurt badly enough.Taylor is the reason Pavlik was allowed to get back to normal,he should've finished the fight from there:-(

    i think froch has a very good chin, but although id love to see him win, i think froch will get mauled, and yes i do think he will get stopped

    I know,as i said,i cant see a stoppage either which is why im thinking a points victory.

    Whats putting me off is the fact Froch's hands are always down and he's constantly hit flush.

    Prob just going to take the 10/11 for the win.....its big enough

    Anyone else having a flutter on this??

    JT may well school Carl but if anyone gets stopped I would imagine it would be JT.
