BULL 98 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 i dont need to bet thats my opinion, if and a big IF he wins well done to the guy but i just dont rate him Relax lad i wasnt being funny...just like a little wager on the fights thats all.....dont rate him that much myself but taylors had his day and froch looks in great shape and will be more hungry than taylor....not a case of needing to bet some folk do some dont all is cool.....................anyone else ? got to agree with this ,as froch is fighting one of the best pound for pound fighters (all bit he is passed his best)people are saying hes mad to do this as a 1st defence but what else can he do ,take a chance by fighting 1 of his choices then 2 mandatory defences given by the board .which he stands a chance of getting beat anyhow ,get in while taylers on his last legs take a big payday, if he loses he lost to the best and he will be given a mandatry in another belt anyway .if he wins he can demand big money and maybe a shot at another belt.win win situation. i dont think frochs outstanding in anyway but think hes a good counter puncher with a chin like granite good luck froch .

gnasher16 30,458 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 You really think taylors one of the best lb for lb ? i think his 2 losses to pavlik hurt him....i always felt taylor was a solid fighter but very 1 paced....stylistically froch has a very good chance and i think his people know this.....its unfortunate that froch just doesnt have the appeal that other british fighters have.....but to real boxing people he and many others have far more actual boxing talent and promise than other brit fighters who try as hard to sell themself to the gullible public as they do to be good fighters.....no names mentioned but the main one is fighting next week Personally this fight tonight has much more appeal to me than the wrestlemania type fiasco next week Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bill88 6 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Im with Gnasher on this one (makes a change for us to agree eh gnasher lol) i think Frochs very underated,which is more to do with his promoter than his talent.Warren seems to have all the Stateside contacts,but fair play to Mick Hennesy for doing the deal.I also thought Froch looked in superb shape at the weigh in,and being a pound under the limit says to me he made the weight comfortably.Taylor is a class act and Froch should be applauded for being man enough to lay it all on the line in his first defence.I'm still undecided on who i think will win,Froch is untested at this level and that might go against him,but i dont think he'd have taken this fight unless he thought he could win.I think Froch needs to sting Taylor early and take Taylors confidence away.Taylor is very gunshy since the 1st Pavlik fight and seems only able to do his thing when he's dictating things so Froch needs to hold the centre of the ring and try to unsettle Taylor. On another point,what a f*cking disgrace that no uk network would show this fight,even more disgracefull when they have the cheek to make a cocky little pretenderfrom Bolton a pay per view fighter.Come on Carl,do us proud.
