Jermain Taylor vs. Carl Froch - WBC 168 lbs Title

"I gradually see Taylor getting dragged into a fight when his jab tactics lose their sheen, and this is when Froch will start picking up the rounds and maybe even get Taylor out of there. Because in these brawls scenarios Taylor's naivety and lack of ring smarts will show itself. He'll always retreat with his hand low, and give Froch the time and space to unleash his artlillery.

It wouldn't surprise me if Froch found the shot just after a semi-clinch(Taylor doesn't do clinches generally), when Taylor switches off.

I see Froch winning this either on a UD or a late stoppage. "

Haven't seen the fight yet but I think I called it pretty good. It was one those predictable fights in the sense of knowing Taylor would be hanging on, doing his usual gassed routine.

It was all about Froch executing. And he did. 14 seconds from the end or not.

 

Just watched the fight. Good win for Froch. Great last 3 rounds and the way he finished the fight was top class. Never wasted a punch.

I wouldnt say it was one way domination up until the 12th at all. Taylor def had the better of the first 6 rounds and from the first bell was landing rights but Froch came into from 7 onwards. Froch's style will always leave him open as his head movement is limited and his defence is non existant. He is open to right hands all the time. However credit the guy for winning a fight that looked like it got away!!
