    you can not question the stoppage in the froch taylor fight.

    Taylor was out on his feet, he dropped his hands and was not defending himself as Froch was landing flush shots to his head.

    Great ending to a good fight, love watching the round 12 commentary (US verison)

    He's one of my favourite fighters, he always gives 100% no matter what even though he may not be the best skilled. A true professional.

    Or gotten knocked out. Kessler was able to hurt Froch more than vice versa.

    Taylor wasn't "shot" and to be real he's till not "shot", I'm not saying he's "better than ever" or anything but he's not "shot". I mean the man is in his early 30's, I understand and conceed the KO's issue and I don't dispute this is a troubling deal. If Jermain had simply taken a knee against Pavlik or Froch he wins either fight, his pride cost him those fights along with his conditioning, but either way Froch earned a win. I think Jermain was the better fighter, I still think he's a really good fighter, but that's something that he will have to prove on his own and I believe he will over the next couple of years. Credit to Froch, i don't consider it luck per se', but it was fortunate that things worked out the way they did.

    He was behind 106-102 on two cards and one judge had it 106-102 for Froch (WTF was he watching), either way he would have clearly won the fight.

    His fight against Pascal is one of the best SMW fight I've seen in the last decade.
