I'm starting to feel bad for Taylor!

Abraham is lucky that Jermain Taylor is utterly retarded...I wonder what the scores were at the time of the KO? Don't know exactly, but the announce team had Abraham ahead (I was watching the Showtime announce team), and when they switched to the UK, they said they had Abraham ahead too. Now this can't be good for Taylor moving ahead, he's got to be mentally damaged at this point and his future opponents would be crazy not to try and go for the KO. He's got a rough road ahead.

Remember in the Peanuts cartoon when Charlie Brown would go to kick the football and Lucy would always pull the ball away right when he would go to kick it?

Taylor makes a good candidate for the "Shot or Exposed" debate.

so much for my gut instict. I picked Taylor to win the SUper SIx. I checked out some still photos from this fight. What the f**k was Abraham thinking when he picked white see-through trunks. Wet and white don't mix unless it's a wet t-shirt contest. The crotch was torn out to boot. Jermain, It is time to hang 'em up. You're just to vulnerable in the late rounds.

Where does Jermain Taylor go from here? Maybe he can go for Butterbean's "King of the 4 Rounders" Title?

Where does Jermain Taylor go from here? Maybe he can go for Butterbean's "King of the 4 Rounders" Title? He goes on and fights Miranda for a "Leavings from Pavlik and Abraham" bout. The Matrix is a really dumb nickname. Froch's chick is hawt. Froch can't figure it out. "That m*th*rf**k*r is dirty" says Dirrell to his trainer. No rules against rabbit punching? I had it 114-113 Dirrell. Judges have it SD 113-114, 115-112, 115-112, for Froch. Froch didn't get any love for me with all of his fouling. How they took a point from Dirrell and not from Froch boggles my mind.

I'll be in the chat room for the next hour or so if anybody wants to yell.

Wow, Froch wins. I thought Dirrell had it but that's the way it goes. At least I get the win for the BTBC rankings

I had it 115-114 to Dirrell but that's without bias.
With bias I had it 116-111 Froch. Dirrell needed to do more than throw jabs that were absorbed on the gloves in the close rounds. He didn't beat the champion in the rounds so the judges go to the champion.
No robbery. Not that bizzare point deduction. The ref was in the way all the time!

I had it 115-112 for Dirrell...What really boggles the mind is just how UK fighters get away with so much damn rabbit punching...It really is part of their skill-set at this point...
I don't feel bad for Dirrell, though...He should've known that he'd have to win 10 rounds to get credit for 7...He could hit Froch whenever he liked, he just didn't let his hands go...

Froch fouled left and right and Bunce is talking about how that's what happens and that good for Froch for fouling because it shows how much he wanted the victory. So it's okay to foul just as long as you win?
