    Congrats Carl! He showed great heart in coming back from a tough start.

    Sky is the limit now.

    He did great after 6 rounds.

    Jermain must be kicking himself. Didn't he do any road work? :huh

    For real? Bull****, he was outclassed through most of the fight. The only thing that saved his ass is that Jermaine Taylor has the stamina of Butterbean.

    First time I have supported a yank over a British fighter and I am gutted.
    Froch showed tremendous heart but what the **** is it with Taylor and these late rounds.

    Froch is still a limited slugger with a great heart but he will get found out soon.

    He won fair and square obviously. But Jermaine just gassed out. He was beating him and blocking most of his punches. Then got tired and got KO'd. A better finisher KOs Froch, But Taylor barely threw anything. I have nothing against Froch, but I wasn't impressed.

    Yeah, his last two fights were both classics, hats off to him.

    What's the story with loosing the avatar bet, do I have to wear the same avatar as you or wait on the guy I was paired with to pick one for me or what?

    Froch showed the heart of a champion. He did the business! He is a world class fighter, just like Andrade, who gets schooled for 11 rounds and then comes back to bite your arse. Froch is a legit champ, whether he won the way you would have wanted or not.:hi:

    Awesome from Froch. To comeback from his 1st ever knockdown showed great mental strength.
    As for Taylor, stamina garbage!

    I told you Froch would take it. He's a lot more talented than given credit for. Props to Jermaine thought. He did better than I thought he would. Of course, his chin and stamina let him down again. I think it's time for him to retire.
