    I agree. AND I had really started to take a liking to Carl over the last few months not only for his fighting, but I really like the cat out of the ring. I would cheer for him ALMOST any time, because this time, I just can't...

    He's going up against my 2nd favorite active fighter in JT, and I can't NOT cheer for JT in this. If it was ANYBODY else (excluding Pavlik;)) I would really wish for Carl to take it to the limits. He may still surprise me and do a number on JT, but I just can't see it. Best of luck to both men though.

    Straight up though, the man deserves heaps of credit for not only taking on JT for his first title defense, but doing it on US soil. Says to me this man really wants to go for the big times. I will however be pulling for JT to win, but even if Carl loses, if he does himself proud with a strong performance, his stock will rise greatly with US fans.....so real good move on his part, now he just has to do his thing.

    JT UD 116-112.

    By virtue of Froch being a white foreigner, he could beat a prime tyson and noone would give him respect..thats the sad reality.. its no world for the white man

    Yeah, Pavlik remained an unknown Mid West fighter after he KO'd JT, huh?

    That's got to be one of the dumber posts I've seen from you, sir, while I know sometimes you "kid" around, that takes the cake.:verysad

    You're right, ALL fighters these days seem to get discredited for **** ****in' reasons. But the race card is not the way to go, damn bro, this is 2009 man.
