lol, how about you just watch the fight instead of looking to Boxrec computer numbers to see who was winning.... god you just made yourself look like an idiot.
Taylor was winning that fight. Even the rounds Froch won, it wasn't as much by what he did, as what Taylor didn't. Froch get's all the credit for gutting it out, and taking advantage of a tired and sloppy Taylor in round 12... but he WAS NOT winning that fight. Not at all.
Whenever I see punch stats and various other statistics, I come away with the impression that whoever compiled them was drunk.
It was a close fight that could've gone either way after Taylor suffered that knockdown in the 12th. If he wasn't KO'd he could've won OR lost a decision & it wouldn't have been a robbery.
That's not true. Taylor certainly wasn't as busy but Froch found his distance & started to land frequently after the halfway point. He earned his way back into it. Either way both guys took some tremendous flush shots and both impressed me with their chins.
weird i knew Froch was much busier but i felt that when jermain threw he landed a very high percentage. those numbers surprise me.
this is logical....I wanted taylor to win but froch deserved it...taylor just does not and never will have world class gas...props to froch for being in great shape and taking alot of punches
