Thread for Brits who just saw the Froch Taylor fight

****in' ace fight. Can't believe I managed avoid the result, he looked very nervous though.

I aren't Frochy's biggest fan but well done, showed great heart.

 

avoided all day. Loved the fight. Any yanks gonna man up?

 

You avoided it all day! :shock:

Caught a stream last night, epic stuff from Froch.

 

Congratulations guys for managing to avoid it all day! I listened to it on 5 Live and it was amazing. Am so pissed with myself that i didnt buy the online PPV. Glad you all got to see such a fantastic dramatic fight

 

What a ****** that bloke talking to him at the end was "do you think the fight should have been stopped ?", eh no i think it should have gone on till jermain was in a coma

 

I avoided the result and watched 'as live'

To question that stoppage was disgraceful. Plus JT got the benefit from a long count and should have been stopped on the first KD.

Froch has got a great chin and heart and can keep going when he is gassed. Somehow, so far, that has been enough to see him through in his career.

But give him credit, he went to JTs backyard and defended that belt like his life depended on it.

 

managed to avoid it all day and was standing up all the 12th and jumping for joy when he won.

Alot of respect to Froch for winning and showing determination, however I feel horrible for Taylor, he was obviously the better boxer. But Get it quality result, hope the only british champion stays that way.

 

WOW WOW WOW. Avoided it all day, just watched it as live with the missus. She told me to calm down and kept telling me it wasnt live, she doesnt understand.
God the adrenalin was pumping in that 12th round. That ref was a bit dodgy with that 15 second count! And yeh i thought it was ridiculous calling into question the ref stopping it.
Hopkins next for Froch?? I have a feeling it could be.

 

Managed to avoid the result all day too.....would have streamed it had it not been for work!
Anyways.....great fight! Although.......

- Froch's hands are too low for this level!.....so frustrating! Easy to fix!
- He needs to get over his obsession for Calzaghe.....he would slap him silly for 12 rounds anyway!
- Questioning the stoppage???!!! Im almost speechless....only in america! Great reffing, especially to stop an american in his own backyard with 14 seconds left when he was ahead on points! Ortega deserves a medal!
- ITV should be banned from showing boxing. Awful organisation of adverts!

Overall, well done to Carl Froch. Had me excited.

Should go for Bute next to unify, then a defense, then take on Kessler......although i feel Kessler would destroy him!

 

Amazing avoided all day again was jumping all over in the 12th, Carl's style in the early rounds not very good but bloody hell what a chin. Many guys would have been out of there. He(Carl) looked exhausted in the 11th so to find that in the last minute was an incredible effort.

Who next, would love to see Calzaghe at Bardiff, if not Pavlik in Vegas.

Well Done Carl done us all proud

 

watched the fight this evening, great stuff.
froch looked pretty edgy for most of the fight and before.
but **** me - what a warrior, this was rocky vs apollo creed. awesome. :happy
anyone else think frochy looked a bit apprehensive?

 

Damn that Taylor for givin' that fight away. He ****in' gift wrapped it. :verysad

 

Is that Melissa Theuriau in your Avtar?
