    Froch is overated.
    Kessler & Bute both beat him.

    I'm not mad at Froch at all, he got the job done but it was OBVIOUS that Froch is a TERRIBLE fighter. And I was ******ed enough to bash on Calzaghe for talking down on Froch's "fighting" abilities.

    Yeah you got that bit right "FANS" you clearly have no knowledge of the fight game,ive done a bit,have you ? im guessin NO.My knowledge of the sport comes form following the noble art for 34 years and actually stepping through the ropes on a few occasions.My boxing knowledge doesn't come from Internet sites and ppv.*****

    Okay, he knocked out Taylor ... Good for him, but he didn't manage to change my mind about him ... he just proved the old addage that everyone has a punchers chance no matter how shitty they are.

    Right now, Dirrell ain't ****...

    Dirrell is basically Jermain Taylor II without the experience, and less power...

    Dirrell ain't ****....

    Dirrell would get knocked out by Froch....

    You disagree?

    Taylor was just scared to run out of gas and I was wondering from round 5 onwards why the HELL Taylor isn't throwing enough, whenever Taylor throws he catches Froch and Froch is stunned. It's obvious now that he was scared to run out of gas which he did even despite the inactivity. Taylor actually threw some good punches to the body, Froch is the one who barely threw to the body. I'm telling you this Froch guy is TERRIBLE, his punches are predictable, he charges in with a weird ass UPPERCUT, what the hell?

    I never get like this when i'm wrong about a prediction, but this guy is flatout terrible ... and a win over Jermain or anyone won't change that.

    There is no way Froch has a better defence than JT. Froch has weak defence and poor footwork. His power and heart were his best assets tonight.

    Its all a matter of opinion ... Right now, I give anyone the nod over Froch. Give Danny Jacobs 6 rounds and Froch is toast.

    I seriously can't find a SINGLE good thing to say about Froch judging from the fight, not because he KO'd Jermain but I'm dead serious the guy is just TERRIBLE. When Pavlik beat Jermain you could find me saying BEFORE and AFTER the fight that Pavlik is a dangerous fighter anyway despite having his limitations at least he can take a punch and punch very hard. Froch is overrall trash.

    '

    Froch as an athlete is nothing but a guy that uses his size to dictate the fight and is tough with a good chin, but his skill level is beyond Taylor's and that was evident in this fight.

    Taylor was clearly the better athlete and had more explosive power, not as much thudding power, but more explosive do the speed, yet Froch beat him.

    Froch is more skilled. Taylor fights like an amateur...

    I agree, it happens to many fighters when they face a devastating loss like the way he did _ you always get reminded of that fatal night especially if you get a gross replay of it during a different fight.

    Taylor seemed to have gotten knocked out in the same fashion as he did against Pavlik ...
