    Kessler wants (Calzaghe), Taylor or Hopkins next. Yesterday Kessler just told that he considers moving to US in order to get the big fights.

    Froch WILL dominate the division. Don't under rate his skill set. He is class. He holds his left low similar to another future great who's just knocked out another Ameri-bum. (actually tbf Barrett's one of the few American fighters who is likable)

    Don't say we didn't tell you so

    I've been a fan from the start and its taken a long time but its a definative 'we' now as the British public are warming to Froch.

    Taylor wont come to the UK, and Froch wont make his first defense in America. Kessler-Taylor or Taylor-Inkin/Bute most likely. Kessler's worth the risk,Froch isn't.

    Hang on...Froch is a total unknown on the world level, and you know nothing about Pascal and presumably Bute, but Dirrell and Ward are mentioned? How are they not unknowns too?

    You call Andrade American...what the ****? He is Mexican.
    You name drop two total prospects who are not even close to fighting on the world level yet and then you mention shot Lacy and second tier Green.:roll:

    Taylor is your only world level Super Middle and Pavlik will be if he chooses to move up.
    That is hardly bossing the scene is it? Froch will KO Pascal, and then the top 4 fighters in the division will be Kessler, Taylor, Froch and Bute. ONE American.

    As for this hypothetical fight, Taylor is much the better boxer than Froch and will outbox him for much of the fight until Froch lands clean, and then Taylor will be KO'd.

    Kessler beats all of them.

    In a few years your statement may well be true, particularly as you have Jacobs coming through, who looks like a great talent.

    Taylor would lose against Kessler, Calzaghe, Bute, Andrade. Those are big fast guys for Taylor. Froch has a puncher chance against him, that's all. Like Lacy had, but look what happened yesterday. Taylor is not the top of the division, he's just a bit under.

    Great post showing you know very well the division. No hyping, no hating.
    Only one point to add: Taylor should not fight Kessler. He fought well yesterday but when Lacy hurt him, it took him 2 rounds to recover his confidence. He has to make easier fights before facing Kessler.

    So, we should actually be scared of an untested guy who can't even throw a straight punch, who also happen to have no defense at all ? Suuuuure.

    Froch has it all to prove at World level, picking him over the likes of Taylor and Kessler is premature. He hasnt fouht a legitamate challenge in his whole career, he got to the number one spot by a technicality.

    Ive never seen Pascal box and he does have a simlar untested record to Froch so imo this is a 50-50 match up...

    Id much prefer Kessler - Taylor than Taylor - Froch.

    The Froch thing for me is the same as Calzaghe 4 years ago. Ok, the opponents aren't big names (Glossameri-bum hype jobs) but you know what you're watching
