    He beat Bernard Hopkins twice, and dear i say it..technically..technically **** blocked Bernard Hopkins style.

    "**** blocked Bernard Hopkins style"

    Jermaine Taylor took on Ronald Winky Wright, at a time when.... Nobody could get away from Winky Wrights Jab, a semi automatic laser accurate shot, Ronald Winky Wright who had the most formidable defence in boxing.

    Jermaine Taylor "Broke through that"

    People who question Jermaine Taylor's heart..? Are you crazy..

    He rematch Kelly Pavlik straight away, went the distance and fought a better technical fight. And in my opinion he is a better fighter than Kelly Pavlik, just that he fought the wrong fight..and then he fought the right fight..but did'nt quite put it together.

    "He is more talanted than Kelly Pavlik"

    The only weakness i see in Jermaine Taylor, is that his work rate is not great and he does have stamina issue's. "Only because his work is so explosive"

    He is a good all round boxer, when he wants to be.

    And the man has hand speed, combination shots..bad intention.

    I think this is going to be a violent 5-6 round fight, Carl Froch is there to be hit, and so is Jermaine Taylor.

    I think this fight can potentially ruin Carl Froch's career, finish him.

    No more..Game Over.

    I don't know. Just speaking for myself here, I know Taylor is the clear favourite in this fight and should win if he turns up, of which there is no guarantee, but Froch has quite a good chance of winning this by TKO. And I'll also be the first to admit that there is an element of hope in my pick, but that's good enough for me.

    We must also keep in mind that he most probably has a stronger chin than Amir Khan.

    i aint, i really think ataylor will pull a points decision. When he's game, his skills are rightfully executed!
    I hope The Cobra comes in sharp!

    I want Froch to win.

    I think that Froch "could" win.

    But the odds would favour Taylor (I'm actually shocked at the odds you can get on him).

    Froch is going up against a guy who has mixed with Pavlik (twice), Hopkins (twice) and Winky Wright, and through the course of those contests has held his own.

    Taylor is an excellent boxer, but (kinda like Froch himself) is prone to lazy spells and this is what might let Carl hussle his way to victory. But, taking off the tainted spectacles, you gotta say that the odds are for a "Taylor UD".

    Taylor has all the skills but he can go to sleep in fights, That's where Froch could land something, It's a long shot but if Taylor controls the fight in the first 8 or 9 round's, Complacency will become his biggest enemy and the Cobra will strike.
    Froch KO 10.

    He doesn't have bad intetions at all. He's very cautious. His stamina is questionable. As is his chin, one-armed Jeff Lacy had him on the canvas, called a slip in round 5 but Taylor got up, stopped fighting and started clinging.

    The speed, combinations, boxing ability is irrelevant. Nobody thinks Carl Froch is going to outbox Jermain Taylor. But he isn't getting knocked out, he'll be behind on the cards, he'll take a lot of punches, but he'll still be in there, and when Taylor gasses, when he stops fighting, that's when Froch will pounce.

    Froch TKO11.

    I think Taylor will win by UD and I hope I am right.
