At first glance this fight looks like great value for Taylor bettors, but Taylor's stamina issues and Froch's fast paced but yet to be really put to the test are two very big question marks. Can Froch bring 12 rounds of pressure against a real opponent? Will Jermain attempt a KO knowing he might burn some late round energy (he didn't against Lacy)?
Question 1: Yes, Froch can bring 12 rounds of pressure (btw- some major newspaper covering the fight had it listed as a 10 round bout, in that case I guess Taylor won the fight in their morning write-up)
Question 2: Jermain through heavy, but not enough to close the deal. Apparently, he should have either attempted a KO with using more energy, or he should have back of some during a few rounds.
To lose with 14 seconds left has to be heart wrenching for Jermain, and glorious for Froch. I didn't catch every momonent of the entire fight, but I saw enough, and finally the ending.
The questions were answered, Jermain doesn't have the stamina, Froch can handle a real fighter (as I said, everyone is a nobody till they fight a somebody). I'll chalk this up as my first wagering loss of the year in the boxing ring. In the analysis of the fight many objective and subjective views are taken to come to a conclusion, but when it comes time to collect, the better you are at breaking it down, the more often you succeed.
As far as lasting 2,146 seconds (and winning up until that point), and losing with only 14 seconds... he needed just another .64% of the time left to win. I won by 2.58 seconds with Chavez before, and that bet was slightly larger.
In boxing, it's not like most sports, a big lead for you (and/or your team) and for your opponent, the biggest enemy is the clock. Every second counts in winning or losing... I'll end this with a movie quote.
"It doesn’t matter if you win by an inch or a mile; winning’s winning."

Wake up. I wasn't trying to trick the community. If you read my earlier posts it stated I was going with Taylor if I was betting. Also, as I stated, I didn't get back in time from traveling to post, that's why I missed much of the fight. Learn to read previous posts and write-ups before accusing someone of trying to trick the community when Taylor was up BIG. If you did read them, you would have seen that my concern was not Taylor being ahead early, but lasting (lol). I'm sure everyone can check the times of posts, but we do apprecaite your detective work. Unfortunately, we don't need CSI on this forum,... just boxing fans, enthusiasts and handicappers. Thanks anyways for your intention of defending the Boxing Forums integrity.

Calling someone out when you never checked all the facts,.. shame on you. Trying to make a name as a sheriff. I'm sure all the posters that have actually READ my posts, and knew I was going with Taylor, would maybe disagree (or laugh at you, or with you).
DID YOU JUST START YOUR ACCOUNT TONIGHT? lol... oops, didn't mean to do a 3rd round KO on you. GL in your future posts, but I don't think you'll recover. After making 8 posts with a combined total words of maybe 100, your input will be sorely missed. Take care in your next alias account or new forum account site, I'm sure you'll get the credit as the CSI Froch man!!!

Actually Double always does amazing write ups and clearly stated he was taking Jermaine.
Double I don't know who this guy is as he just made an account and seems to be bashing anyone who backed Jermaine.
We all look forward to your write ups and we all knew who you had.

I'll be posting and reading on next weeks bouts, and definitely on the Hatton vs PacMan. I'll be reading most of posters, but I feels a few might depart after tonite... maybe the daily I want to kick the dog style poster!
