    Froch is actually a typical candidate to be "avoided", even though this posters reputation does little to enhance the credibility of this claim

    Awkward guy with a solid chin, and genuine power. Doesn't bring huge money or credibility to ones resume. Just the sort of the guy you aren't looking to fight.

    Taylor's handlers are making a good Choice by choosing to lose to "Left HOOk" instead of Froch. THey will make more money by choosing lacy but a more interesting fight for the boxing hardcore would be TAylor vs Froch.

    Taylor v Lacy is in no way as interesting as Taylor v Froch. It's not even as prestigious a win for Taylor. Shame if this fight dosen't come off.

    That is why he wants to fight a somebody so people could care about him. Remember many a times a unknown fights a popular fighter and whups that ass.

    Carl froch fight is all risk and not much reward


    Now a lacy fight gives big rewards and also lets not forget lacy is done, the way he struggled against manfreddo said it all :patsch


    Taylor is taking the safe option, if you can't see that your blind because anything lacy had to offer was left in the ring against calzaghe :deal

    Thats his point.He wants Froch to fight a top operator like Taylor to show whether he will sink or swim.
    He hasnt fought anybody?Fine,now he wants to change that and fight Taylor.Its pretty simple;
    People are saying he hasnt fought a top level fighter,but when he calls for a top level fighter to prove himself he's ridiculed?:huh
    I dont get it.:nut

    I've never seen Froch fight, but I'm puzzled by this one. Negotiating tactics? I'd think JT would jump at a chance for another title.

    P2K is in the Pantera camp and we all know that. He offers some good insights but we all know his bias to his guy, which is OK. In fact, when reading a quote by Pantera's promoter I had reason for pause. :yep

    Taylor has a few dollars in the bank, **** the money. He should fight Froch. A Lacy fight is BULL****.

    I remember after the Hopkins fight Taylor clearly stated on TV that he would fight whoever give him the best payday. He was very serious about it. I think he stick to his point. That's it.

    I would prefer a fight with Froch but I see where he goes.

    BTW him not a fan of Taylor and don't really care about the winner.
