    easier said than done in hopkins' case.
    taylor was the man to step up and do it, so that counts for a whole lot.

    What a lame Thread.. you might as well rename the thread Black fighter vs Black fighter=loser is Shot

    Froch put on a boxing masterclass vs AA one which Dirrell couldn't do

    So you are saying Pavlik isn't an easy to hit, basic and sloppy fighter?

    A few things to consider...

    Mosley tends to look like **** when he can't outmuscle his opponent. He looked like **** against Mayorga cuz the man outweighed him by like 13 pounds. He's looked like **** against Mora for the same reason (and he ran). Mayweather was simply better than him. Against Pac...who knows. I agree.

    JT simply gassed out as he usually does against Froch. He was beating Froch's ass, but Carl simply had a shitload more in the tank and walked his ass down for the belt.

    Against AA, I have always said that the ref totally ****ed him in that fight. He basically created the FIRST blueprint on how to KO Abraham. He was jabbing to the body straight down the pipe the way Dirrell was, but the ref wasn't allowing the legal beltline blow to pass so he grew too cautious of low blows and lost all hope for himself. Had he just stuck to the gameplan he might've got the KO win instead of leaving it to the robbery on the scorecards.

    He wasn't completely shot, but a bit damaged. IMO he was simply always mentally either frail or lazy. I mean he looked like **** in his fights AFTER Hopkins.

    He was making that comment regarding Mosley hitting Pacquiao. He was simply complaining about JT being undone by simpletons.

    I think there's more that meets the eye in those instances, but Froch I think has shown his ring IQ. He isn't the fastest or the most aesthetically pleasing fighter to watch, but he's got the smarts. I mean he knew what to do with every fighter that's been put in front of him despite his VAST deficiencies. Pascal, Dirrell, AA, JT, and even Kessler in certain spots.

    It should be illegal for Bernard to fight someone twice, nothing good ever comes of it.

    And my point was that Taylor was previously undone by a simpleton twice in Pavlik whilst definitely "prime"

    Froch definitely showed his smarts, AA only had a sniff of a chance for 15 seconds in round 12 but Froch slammed the door shut on him.

    That's fine, but you were making comments about easy to hit in which the TS was regarding towards Pac/Mosley...I'm just trying to keep the **** in the right line of approach.

    I see you're point and somewhat agree.

    If Mosley isnt a shot fighter then i dont know who is..

    Sometimes I wish Manny Pacquiao would take the fight vs Mosley and expose that Mayweather that all he did was assaulting some old guy..

    pac would destroy Mosley before round 3

    Damn...you have NO idea how appreciated posters like Varg, Antwan Maxx, Benny Blanco, Intentionalbutt, Bigreg, Ringnut and this new poster Punsher...are a breath of fresh air in the General Forum. Posters that have this Profound Ability to read a thread and then reply to that thread based on the contents and what was said and being conveyed. Instead of trying to turn into some cryptic, cloak-n-dagger hidden message. For posters that do that, I would imagine these are the same people who believe in Area 51 and Crop Circles:patsch.

    That fight last night between Froch and Abraham was just Awful to watch....PERIOD, POINT ****ING BLANK!!!
