    I see a lot of people gave Taylor the opening 4 or 5 rounds.

    I myself didn't think Froch did to badly.

    Taylor took round 1. Close but clear.

    Round 2 was more even, could of given it to Froch. I did.

    Round 3 obviously a Taylor round, 10-8.

    Round 4 I thought Froch showed great composure given he'd just been down and I though he took the round.

    Round 5 I think was another Taylor round.

    Plenty of the first rounds wre close Tom but I just liked Taylor's jab and work more.Could have gone either way or very close.
    Btw how much is 168 lbs in stones?

    I didn't score it, but I would have given Carl 2 or 3 rounds at the most, with maybe 1 or 2 more of them even.

    1st 5 or 6 rounds were the same as you. 2nd could have gone either way to be honest, after that I stopped scoring (by pen I mean) and then my TV started ****ing up, recording the repeat later so I'll rewatch and score properly this time.

    I had Taylor 2 up going into the 12th.....so a 10-8 would have produced a draw....might have been good to set-up a rematch. (Which i dont believe should happen now anyway. Taylor did well, but was the challenger moving up. Froch would know better next time)

    Excellent stoppage by Ortega!

    I had it 106-104 for Taylor going into the last round but that was after scoring two rounds even. I'm not surprised by 106-102 scores by the judges, I don't think it would have been a robbery if Taylor had got it on points.

    It was close, but Taylor was winning before the knockout.

    I had it wider than most and I was cheering Froch on. I just gave Froch 6 and 7 going in to the 12th.

    Wow, beats my bias. I had it 4 rounds plus the KD for a 5 point swing. No one has ever accused me of scoring accurately though and even less care how I score.

    HBO web site had a shutout for Taylor over Pavlik in their first fight. Must have been using Julie's card. :rofl
