Pascal took some huge shots. Plus Froch had a bad rib injury and couldn't put his all into his punches. He hits a lot harder than that fight suggested. All that did was showcase his long jab and excellent chin, and fighting sprit. But that was probably only 80% Froch.
Most likely whaling away at the open target in pascqual ..I personally don't think there will be a KO ..Taylor is a high work rate puncher I don't think Froch is as much as Taylor ..Could be a punch and grab fest I hope im wrong . I beleive this fight goes to the cards it will be decided in with who lands the cleaner punches ..Both men have decent chins at least with what we seen thus far ,Should be a good technical match up ..If it surpasses its icing on the cake for me ..
I dont see Taylor as a high work rate fighter. I think he is the opposite, he kinda reminds me of Chris Eubank in the sense that he wants to control the pace, has bad stamina. Im thinking what happened last time Taylor met a guy who was as consistent as Carl Froch?
Froch is that guy in the bar that you don't wanna scrap with...but if Taylor boxes he should win a close but clear dec with his jab...if Taylor decides to slug then it becomes another Pascal fight and it gets more interesting...i don't think Froch hits that much harder than Taylor, but Froch's confidence is cold as ice...he doesn't ever look rattled or worried in the ring and that is a big advantage if it's war...but Taylor should be smarter than that at this point in his career, so i'll go with a Taylor SD...
Froch is a slow, B-class fighter at best, but he's got a punch. Taylor should completely outclass him. But Froch will always have a chance of landing a bomb and ending it, especially in the late rounds when Taylor inevitably fades. If Taylor's smart, he'll pace himself well and give Froch a boxing lesson.
Man, I'm not gonna get all up into this one, but I assure you....Jermain did NOT go life and death with either Ouma or Spinks. He just didn't KO them like everybody wanted him to...and the Spinks fight is probably one of the most boring fights of all time, but no "life and death".
. They put a lot of stock in this mediocre mother****er. Look at his punches. They are all stiff and akward and slow. The reason he gets KOs is b/c of the akward angles he throws his punches. But JT will see that bullcrap coming and just keep him from setting up his hands low gorrilla stance with a jab. The dude Froch dont have no god damned stamina either. He has no fluidity at all. As if he has a high work rate. :rofl
Most of your posts I totally disagree with but to be honest this is pretty much ****ing right on the money. Froch will not be knocking anyone out and if he couldn't even knock out Pascal, how the hell is he going to knock out Taylor who is leagues above Pascal in my opinion. I think that Taylor lacks fight the longer the fight goes on but I think this will be an easy night for him if he keeps sticking that double and triple jab out and then coming through with the occasional straight right to follow it down the pipe because Froch keeps his jab hand too low, Taylor will land because he is quicker and Pascal was throwing arm punches, not real power shots
Hey knuckle head, Lacy hit Taylor on the back of the head in which Taylor went down. The back of the head i believe is illegal shot.
