    Yes, it's true that Froch has no rhythmm, but he is better skilled than Taylor.

    If anyone disagrees, I would like them to put reasons why.

    Keep in mind, speed and power is not a skill.

    No,he beat him because he has a iron determination and a steel chin with a better stamina.
    Taylor was 14 seconds away from winning.

    So you think Taylor is more skilled?

    If so, why?

    Bingo. Froch one because he had all the intangibles and he truly wanted to be champion more than Jermain did.

    I disagree he beat him because he was better conditoned !!

    There was nothing that I saw from Froch that said he was more skilled than than Taylor ..Both fighters had equal pop but Froch's defense is horrendous !!

    He really needs some fine tuning ..I will give him props on his counter punching though I was impressed with his counter punching ..

    Taylor is more skillful. I dont need to explain it becuase your post makes no attempt at explaining why you think Froch is more skillful, when its pretty obvious he is not.

    I don't need to explain why because I already know.

    I just want someone to prove me wrong.

    Perhaps, someone like you....

    No. Froch just had more of it.

    Froch fought the last 3 rounds like he wouldn't be denied. Not many fighters can overcome that.

    If you're going to make a statement like "Froch is more skilled than Taylor", it's you who needs to support it with reasoning.

    Well everyone else knows why Taylor is more skilled, so why the need to explain it to you?

    Yes he is,that doesn't mean he is the better fighter.
    Taylor also has a problem fighting bigger guys because being HBO's hype boy he didn't fight real MW's before and after winning the title.
    Funny that HBO had him listed at 6'1 and Showtime at 5'11.
    He is more skilled,he can put punches together,he uses the jab a lot better,he sees more openings,he has better footwork only when he usesi it thought,etc.
