    First MichiganWarrior and now Inspector. When will some of you learn that the meaning of 'floored' cannot be changed.

    Froch got put down by Taylor, recovered well and knocked him out. It wasn't a flash knockdown.

    Its easy to have a good chin when you dont commit to throw any punches.

    Pac kept hurting Rios, took Rios out of the fight, won every round, boxed beautifully.

    Froch was almost knocked out by Groves. Froch's referee stopped the fight prematurely, should an investigation, appears there will be a rematch. Froch looked like crap.............

    He's not hard to hit. he got hit continually throughout the fight and just walked through them like the true non-American warrior he is.

    you should have known that before the fight. i picked pacman by 10th tko, i thought brandon would be more bloody and battered in the fight. but that should show people had legit rios was, but not how manny is not the same with his power or speed. that was vintage pacman and rios is just durable. not only his chin but he took some nasty body punches from manny as well. rios is the TIN MAN:good

    I've said this before though - Froch has never been a good boxer. His wins against the top tier come through heart, desire, and stregth.
