    Taylor is the favourite but Froch is a live one as he is a confident undefeated champion who can have a tear up and knock people the **** out. Hopefully he'll keep gunning for Taylor until he finds a home for his punches.

    If Taylor keeps his discipline he should batter Froch to a wide points los. I'm not really convinced Froch is world class. We shall see at the weekend.

    Taylor is more skilled but Froch has more power and a better chin.

    I predict taylor to be leading but Carl to eventually KO taylor.

    Carls only chance of winning is landing the bombs though I cant stress that enough.

    jermaine taylor by clear points decision. it's taylor so he'll switch off every now and then and probably endure a couple of scary moments but have far too much speed for the sluggish, open froch.

    carl can go back to struggling to sell out pissy little arenas in nottingham.

    Anyone who thinks Taylor wins this seriously needs their head or their boxing knowledge examining.

    I was at the final press conference yesterday and it merely confirmed what I thought beforehand. Froch is very confident and determined, whilst Taylor(nice guy that he is) was joking around and didn't have anywhere near the same level of focus.

    Froch is too big,too strong, too powerful, too tough for the likes of Taylor.Remember also that Taylor never really wanted this fight in the first place, fighting Lacy for an eliminator when he could have fought Carl straight off, then he showed his 'bad intentions' by refusing to show his fighting spirit by travelling to the UK.

    Everything points to a Froch win.

    Anyone else on ESB going to the fight?

    Froch on points, as much as it pains me to say it.

    Froch. I believe that Taylor is in a downhill now. Froch just needs to stay active and Taylor will gas out in the later rounds. Froch by UD or late round TKO.

    Going with JT. I think his hand-speed will prevail. He wins by UD. Especially, if he fights the way he did in KP v JT II.

    Taylor by WIDE ud. I've laid out my reasoning on many other threads.

    All the Taylor fans on here. I'm a little confused as to what Taylor's done recently to deserve such blind optimism as to the outcome of this fight. It just seems like sadly typical Brit hating that goes on here. As with Haye, I hope Froch does a job on Taylor and people will have to give credit where it's due. There's far too little respect on here for boxers. Guys who make a living doing something that most so called 'fans of boxing' posting on ESB would never have the bollocks to do themselves.
