Thanks for the vid! :good I stayed up all night and listened on radio due to no live show here in the UK:twisted: Has anyone got the full fight ?
though froch didn't jujst jump on him when he was hurt, he kept his distance and game himself room to let his punches go.
Taylor is a very good fighter but something seems to be missing - not sure what it is, passion, love for the sport, supreme confidence, just not sure what it is.
The sad thing is, if Froch was a Frank Warren fighter he could probably get a prime time slot on ITV against some complete nobody.

Just watched the replay posted here....It shuuld have ended with the first knockdown, Taylor was on the canvas for 14 seconds !!!! Made no difference in the end and the ref made a good decision. Congrats to Froch he showed a lot of determination and heart...
I liked the Showtime announcers for this fight, Al Bernstein and the other guy. The could STFU a little more but that's true of all announcers.
nice way to finish a fight, it's nice to see a guy finish strong who is in a close fight rather then walk around and wait for time to run out.
Froch wasn't going to make it easy, I just think it would have been a better idea than lying on the ropes, maybe taking a knee would also help, take off 8 seconds and hold on for 6 :good
